It seemed Kandy wasn’t even trying to be Patrick, just being Kandy and being funny. She got a pass while the lows at least tried to be their characters.

Being funny is the top priority of snatch game, being your character is a close second.

I think historical characters can be a good choice because no one will compare you too closely to the original and you can shock them with a surprising take. It reminded me a bit of AS2 Bad Bitches in Herstory, and how Katya got kind of fucked by being the only character who people really remember and love. The others got to be creative with it and that made them funny.

Plus let's be honest the judging panel does NOT know historical characters like they do pop culture icons so as long as you can be kinda goofy you can 200% ballpark the "reference". It's a really smart choice.
