It was repetitive and obviously the first episode is always the time where the queens are full of themselves then get some reality check one challenge in. So that made it a bit tough sometimes to follow.
The songs choice was...a choice, but eventually it wasn't terrible. I think what helped is that the results were fair overall. I do agree with Shaun for Kandy, she really should not have won this one.

And yes there was a 14th queen that got cut right before they entered the werkroom. I read she was already in LA and ready to go in, don't know if that's completely accurate.

they should've either made it a 2 hour premiere or had these lipsyncs be an online special episode or something because that was SO tedious to get through

I really didn’t like the format either, I hope it doesn’t return. Why do VH1 insist on churning so many episodes a year out literally nobody would have cared if that episode didn’t air.

Symone & Gottmik stood out the most to me as my potential favourites but I liked pretty much everyone. Rosé has overtaken Pearl too for hottest out of drag.

I don't think the format worked at all, tbh. It would have been better if they did it like the AS4 Lipsync episode. They should have all met each other and then be paired off into lipsyncs afterwards.

Most of the lipsyncs outside of Symone vs Tamisha were mostly average, and I thought the result for Gottmik vs Lidl Thorgy was pretty wrong since I thought the latter did better than Gottmik.

I think my early faves are Tamisha, Symone & Rose.

"Don't let the smooth taste fool ya, baby" is probably my favourite entrance since Nina Bo'nina's. Nothing OTT, just something unique and effortless and immediately charismatic.

Part of me misses the queens just walking into the room without a catchphrase prepared, just doing the old "hi!!! omg ____? (queen they recognise from home)"... I know a lot of modern queens get ribbed for being overly-prepared and self-edited, armed with catchphrases, etc, but the majority don't annoy me. I don't know what I'm saying here.

Who said that?

I can't remember much of the entrances, tbh, the format kinda made them all blend together for me.

We love a drunk Shaun

But I get it. My husband randomly rewatched the two premieres of season 6 last night and I got along with it. It was so refreshing because of the organic feel to it but also the constant shade that would probably cause death threats and "cancellation" if it happened today.
But indeed the overly-prepared catchphrases are not bad so we'll take it.

It's funny because Katya and Trixie invited Violet in their podcast The Bald and Beautiful last week and they all agreed that the show peaked at S6 and that S7 was the turning point between "old drag" and "new drag".
The queens are now more prepared, they know what the show is about, it's less organic now etc Basically they said the show became a parody of itself.
Now I don't completely agree, but I agree too. I don't know what I'm saying here either

Tamishas "that lady said were going home" about Rupaul is iconic

[Shaun]

I'm gonna try and make the effort to watch all of Untucked this season bc it's difficult when only the regular show is uploaded to Netflix (why did they only give us Season 11???? why??????)

Just watching it now before Ep2 is uploaded today. It makes a lot more sense why they just didn't show some queens entering the Porkchop Lounge now

Rose: Oh I love Kandy Muse, I'm glad she's here!
Joey: .... me too
