Starchild

I wouldn't have minded if Aurora won, but this felt correct. And Gisele looked lovely in that reindeer outfit.

People scroll their phones while watching TV these days. No one pays attention anymore.

The writing in this version is definitely not as good as the old one. I seem to recall the 80s version had writing almost on par with Designing Women (except it didn't tend towards the dramatic as often), and that's saying something. But I think that might be a reflection of TV sitcoms today in general. I often think that newer generations of writers, on average, don't have the life experience that older ones did at the same stage of life. I generally worry about what younger generations aspire to. It seems that more people are trying to make money on TikTok and YouTube, rather than trying to become doctors, engineers, construction workers, people who create and build things, instead of reacting to what others are creating and building. Sorry for the existential dread lol.

Linda was the best part of the episode. Wish she could be a regular.

I saw that too. I've been hoping someone here gets what it means lol

I'm inclined to feel sorry for him. Then I remember what he's done.

Forgot to mention, she called the "orange idiot", presumably Trump, since it's set in 2019. So she went straight to the President of the US.

Her reaction to the news of Danish's death was understated perfection. Her first feelings of vulnerability in decades probably. Aw she really did care about him, in her way.

Since this is the US show, I imagine most folks on this board are in the US, and that many don't watch Drag Race Canada. The current Canada season has a queen that doesn't tuck at all, Venus, and I have to admit that it has, at times, been distracting. But not overly so.

My preference is in between, like regular human sized breasts, rather than the really big ones, or nothing at all. Although, sometimes nothing at all can be very appealing, depending how it's done. But super big breasts, not my thing, whoever it is.

You're not wrong. I'm not an opera singer either, but I like opera and I've listened to that song many times, by various singers. She was def flat at times. But that's OK AFAIC, because she did something different, and I'm here for it.

Agreed, Q and Sapphirra's acts were so refreshing despite being rather ordinary. I like them both It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out Amanda's name too lol. I like Dawn's quirkiness, hope she makes it far. Morphine is just the latest entry in a long line of queens who puts others down to raise herself up. I know it has "entertainment value" but I do not like watching what is essentially bullying, and I hope she doesn't win, despite her obvious talent. She criticized the queen that came after her in the talent show (can't remember who it was). She was like, "What was that?", and I was like, "Bitch she did exactly the same thing you just did!"

I can't deny Denim did a great job and deserved to win. How people reach bottom in a design challenge is always a black box, so I held out hope that Melinda would be safe and Aurora would send Nearah home, but it was not to be. Buffy seemed to do ok, so I wonder if she would have been better received by the judges if her arms had been covered. Based on her obsession with her boyfriend's body (and a bit of relationship exhibitionism), I guess Nearah just couldn't bring herself to do that lol.

But wouldn't 2.08 air in February? Why was it Christmas-themed at all?

I had mentioned earlier that it seemed Dot truly believed Linda was still alive, but thinking more about the windmill, I believe now that it had to have been wishful thinking on Dot's part. In her dream, she found a message from Linda buried under a windmill. A windmill that she had to have seen before from having lived on Roy's ranch. In her dream, whatever was left of Linda was under that windmill. She had to have always suspected that Linda was under that windmill. She just didn't want to believe it. After Danish, the memory was brought to the surface and she couldn't deny it anymore. IMO.

That was self-preservation, plain and simple. She knew Roy's mood meant that someone was getting a serious beating. Focusing him on Nadine meant that hopefully it wasn't going to be her this time. I was wondering the same thing. Dot hid her escape tools under a blanket on the cot several times, though it didn't help in the end. Lars was under a blanket when he was caught cheating. But the literal meaning doesn't feel right. I think something more obscure is intended. Can't quite figure out what, though.

I liked it. I like dark versions of pop songs.

My read is that she didn't think her vision of Linda was real, she realized she'd just been dreaming in the diner, but she did get the idea to use it to try to convince Gator to help her. However, it seems she really did believe that Linda had succeeded in getting away. That is, until she saw the windmill, and started connecting it to her daydream. That the windmill she thought she saw out on the highway was actually in Roy's back yard. And then when she saw what happened to Danish, that sealed it.

So, the Master, who do we think picked up that tooth? I mean, there weren't very many people on that pad, and Kate would know every single one of them.

Maybe she's just the Master.

Don't get me wrong. I don't think Munch is consciously going to try to help Dot. I do think he's going to strike at Roy and Gator at some opportune moment, distracting them and indirectly giving Dot an unexpected but critical advantage.

I don't recall that.

Don't forget wild card Munch. Gator just made it personal, and Munch's priorities are now aligned with Dot's. She may not be counting on the help of one of her would-be abductors, but she's going to get it. Probably when she least expects it.

Venus is not projecting the same kind of nastiness and entitlement as Neera and Denim, so if I were choosing amongst the 3 of them, I'd choose Venus to back. Between Venus and Aurora, no clear favourite yet.

He's a time traveler, not a wizard lol. Too bad the sonic screwdriver doesn't work on wood.
