Rupaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 6 |OT| May I Call You Jiggly?

Episode 1 Opinion
I really love the cast. The episode was good, but it feels rushed, the overall episode felt rushed because the cast is so huge. Reading challenge with only 2 reads per queen (except for Ginger lol), the entrances were quicker than usual and even the talent show acts were shorter (less confessionals).
Nothing that bad tho.
I guess that we can post open spoilers in this OT just like the others. I´ll use the spoiler tag this time to avoid misunderstoods.
I´ll come back for Ep 2.

Scarlet and Raja´h were my favorites in the talent show. Eureka did really well too. Not that Yara did bad, but I wouldn´t give the win to her.
Trinity BOMBED. She deserved to go home this week. I´m glad she stayed but that was something.
I wished that Serena stayed longer. I want to become a CHACHARINA.

Although Trinity fucked up her routine, I didn't really get Serena's performance.- she's all about wigs but didn't do anything with them on stage, so her gimmick, talent and catchphrases are really all just an ad for her wig styling business? It's enterprising I suppose, but not entertaining.
Rajah came through, she could've won it I think if there was more dialogue during the skit because everything else was right. I also actually liked Eureka's performance too. This is a good cast, right.
edit - I think I hate Ginger's taste level! On S7 I thought she had a polished look, but that entrance look was hideous and the performance outfit was ugly too, only saved by being on theme to the song. It all just recalls that horrible look she went home on AS2.

Good duo of episodes. It's a pretty good cast, mostly just really don't like how Yara has come off so far. Rajah is the early favorite, I think.
EP2:
Forgot there was Untucked too so i should get to that later.
EP2:
Jiggly is basically Ongina in AS5 for me - really loved them on their original run, had a ton of potential with a big All Stars glow up a decade later but ended up being pretty disappointing.

Jan is doing far too much. I am already over her good god. But I also felt this way about her in Season 12 so lol.
This is shaping up to be more entertaining than I expected it to be, and I'm glad for it. Agreed that Ra'jah is a standout for me. Damn that lipsync. Also excited to see even more from Kylie.
For some reason... Ginger's paint is like god awful in these two episodes? You'd think she'd get better. I really liked her on S7, but yikes idk.
Also forgot about untucked. I guess I'll watch that at some point.

Sad to see Jiggly go, because I love her so much, but I guess it was the right choice out of the two. I would have put Silky in the bottom but that's just me.
Oop, haven't watched the episodes yet, but wanted to comment on the cast right before I did...
This might be my favorite All Stars cast next to AS2. I know people have been pretty down on it, but Kylie Sonique Love, Jiggly Caliente, Trinity K Bonet, and Yara Sofia are some of my favorite queens who I've been dying to see again.

Same tbh, her third look was just as bad as the person who went home
How the fuck does Yara still have that body?!
Pandora is not getting much time in the talking heads, I fear her time might be short. You know who she reminds me of in drag as she gets older, and this isn't shade, but the late Charles Pierce who was in Torch Song Trilogy. Just the eyes and bone structure/paint.

I was convinced Scarlet was going to be in the top on the second episode, she looked stunning in all her looks.
Ginger is weirdly disappointing so far.
Ra'jah is coming across well which is a nice surprise considering what she was like in S11.
I don't know if we're having open spoilers in here or not, I think we usually do in DR threads?

Can't believe Jiggly is gone already :( I cursed it with my OT title.

Oh yeah, I don't mind having the open spoilers. I just followed suit from the others, haha. In my mind, it made sense to have that buffer between pre-show chatter and now finally airing, maybe in case people didn't realize the episodes were already out or something idk!
Yeah, that's why I didn't really want to go into any specifics in my posts. I feel like a lot of people may not have been aware the episodes dropped already, let alone that they were gonna drop two episodes. After this though open spoilers sound fine.
Episode 2
Finally a real ball in All Stars, it was time.
I was ready for binge watching all of the season today.
I don't know if I'm the only one, but Yara is rubbing me the wrong way. She annoys me ngl.
Bring on EP3.

Come through Ra'jah! She's been killing it.
Kylie did really good, especially the denim look. It was so good.
Scarlet and Trinity were also standouts this week. I was shocked to no see either of them on the top.
How in the hell didn't Silky end up on the bottom with that look.
So sad to see Jiggly go so soon. I was really excited for her.

It's a bizarre one where the episodes airing at 3am US time means its going to be ~really fucking hard~ avoiding the winner this season for not just non-Americans but also you American folk.
Anyway I watched both episodes, I am very surprisingly impressed! After S13 I was coming into AS6 with tempered expectations, and I gotta say I loved the first two episodes - just seemed like a lot of pure drag race joy that I haven't been getting from US Drag Race in a while! I can't pinpoint exactly why, but even queens I was not a fan of like Ra'jah and Eureka were much more enjoyable these two episodes and even say I'm just loving everything they brung.
Even the 2nd Lip Sync was so much better than any of the AS5 Assassins lip syncs??? (I can't even remember any, either I have bad memory (i usually do) or they weren't memorable)

Her arrogance with no doing anything until everyone's finished so she can 'throw together a garment in 30 mins' because she's an amazing seamstress was just really off putting. I'm not gonna be surprised if multiple people voted for her. Other than that, she's been enjoyable to watch.
Rajah or Scarlet should have been in the top for the variety show, almost everyone else did a song or dance number. I think the right queen went home. Her drag certainly improved but I'm way more interested in what the other queen has to show.
The ball was fun but I think the bottom two were questionable. I was devastated by the queen who went home.
Both episodes had great lip syncs.
Two episodes in and AS6 is already better than AS5 and S13. The queens have great chemistry so far and they all seem to really enjoy being back. I hope it keeps up for the rest of the season.

I wanted to see more of Jiggly but the judging was consistent and Yara did just come off winning ep1, so it all seems fair enough so far.
Trinity is bringing a little salt that reminds me of her defensiveness in S6 and I'm kind of enjoying it - it's still early days but there's a few queens in that room who could pop off when rubbed the wrong way. You see Silky giving the stink eye every now and again, the cogs working in her head. There's no way this season doesn't end without some kind of drama right?!

I would have put Scarlet and Jan as Tops instead of Kylie Sonique and Eureka. Still happy for Ra'jah tho. Amazing lipsync too!
As for Ginger, her strenght are in comedy/acting. She'll be doing great next week for sure.
Sad to see Jiggly go. But then I guess there will be a comeback queen in a few weeks?
I love Yara but yeah she's coming across as a bit arrogant :(
I am liking this season way better than AS5. The fact that there isn't a huge obvious front runner like Shea does help!

Wonderful two episodes, this is the energy I love.
(Also Jan is still one of my fav trades and will be in my wet dreams tonight.)

I like how there isn't a front runner and we've gone through most of the POWERHOUSE queens with AS already so now we're left with B tier bitches who are HUNGRY.
My queen Ra'Jah showing y'all her beauty and talent.
Hope the second elimination gets to come back. She was one who I was most excited to see return.
Also what the hell blood curse did Yara find herself in to keep that body for so goddamn long????

Is there an untucked this season?
It's witchcraft. Yara really hasn't changed at all lol
Only seen the first episode but liking what I'm seeing so far.
On a regular Season I would have put money on it being TKB that goes home that ep, but this is AS so taking out Serena made sense... Also, why was Serena even in the bottom? Silky stumbled through the piano to the point where my musician friend went "Oh those are some spicy chord choic... oh, she can't play."
Surprisingly fun couple of episodes!
I love Kylie on this season-- she's so grounded and chill, she reminds me of a hot SoCal mom. I continue to fail to see the point of Jan. The try hard energy is so awful and her looks just feel like cosplay that she has no relationship to at all; I continue to look for her personality and continue to fail to find one. Yara was insanely enjoyable in Ep 1 but in 2 it's already wearing thin.
I'm extremely, extremely bummed about the second elimination. I do wonder if
Can't wait to see what the game within the game ends up being.

Jiggly being on Pose has anything to do with her elimination. Like, on Survivor people tend to conceal when they're very successful as that can be a reason to vote them out. Now, I know being a bit player on Pose is not the hugest gig but it's very mainstream and I could imagine it being used as a reason to eliminate her. Same with Eureka when she's in the bottom.

My guess for game within a game:
once half the queers are eliminated the eliminated queens compete for a chance at re-entry into the season

I was quite shocked at the group voting off who they did in the second episode, I thought she would have been generally more liked by the majority of people there, but nm, hopefully whatever this twist is may give her a chance to shine again.
I'm already bored of Yara's breast plate.

That makes sense. Or maybe it's like Top Chef/ Last Chance Kitchen-- head to head match ups between the queens as they get eliminated.
100%
If it was only used for the challenge it would have been amazing... but using it for the lipsync and I assume it's in Ep2... no.
Already a little upset over the first two eliminated, especially the second, but I gotta say I kind of like the season so far.
Most are just doing their opening number for their shows. I don't consider that talent TBH and not sure why they just let them skate through that. I don't like Silky all that much but at least the bitch can play a piano and sing live.

A lot are just not television friendly which makes it awkward or boring. I like the premise but they should rework it.
Barely but at least she tried a talent and not the standard dance number and below-average song lyrics I've seen and heard a dozen times.
You got me there. God it was a big flashback to the PEG New Years Digital Drag show
Lol probably. But you can't even do that because those songs have apparently been around long enough for Ross to know them and sing along with them.
Either way, not a talent show fan anyways. Queens have a skill and it's not always something outside of drag. If it was just music/dance then sure, show me what you got and sell me on coming to see your show.
But most queens will use talents they have in their drag, if you expect them to do something they don't already do on stage you end up with Karen from finance making a balloon dog.
Yeah this is true, but at the same time I'm here to watch drag race and not the Voice.
Wow after S13, AS5, and Down Under it's amazing to have drag race back. Best two back to back episodes in almost two years (minus UK 2). Impressed.
Shout out to B Heights for another killer lip sync.

Thanks. Watched both eps and they were great. There were actually some nice moments that went beyond the deliberations we already see on the main episode.
