Oh, you thought the last episode before the finale would have some actual competitive stakes? Well, get ready for a twist!
It’s taken me a while to write this recap because I just keep laughing. The ending of this episode is nothing short of, to use the language of MTV, ridiculousness. “In the beginning of the season, I promised myself to have an elimination every episode,” RuPaul intones during the deliberations this week.
So what are we left with? An episode with low stakes, irrelevant judging, and unformed relationships. Unfortunately, this is typical. Last season, they injected some drama into the proceedings by telling us that Willow Pill and Angeria, a relationship we’d rarely seen, had grown close, before throwing them in the bottom two and eliminating neither. It didn’t work. Has a Rumix or music-video challenge ever been interesting on the main show? Only in years where the winner is crowned at the end .
Sasha is first, and what’s notable about this is how, more than anybody who’s ever been on the show, save maybe Bianca, her conversation with RuPaul feels more peer-to-peer than mentor-to-mentee. At one point, Ru asks Sasha if she’s had any hard points in the competition, and she informs Ru and the audience that when she won two challenges in a row, she was worried that the girls wouldn’t like her to the point that it was making her wish she hadn’t won.
The music video is set in outer space in an homage to the spaceship music videos of the ’90s and, more specifically, Janet and Michael Jackson’s “Scream,” the The judges say nothing mean to any of them, really. Then we arrive at the “What would you say to little ____?” portion of the evening. See my above comments on the TicTac lunches for my thoughts on this segment. It’s boring, emotionally manipulative, and should be cut.
