23:50 I guess the dude was doing his routine in English. "Have you ever done your comedy in another country" is the wrong question. More fitting would have been the question if he ever did his skits in another language, or if he ever tried real improvisation and being funny in something that is his second, third or fourth language. Americans live with this insufferable conviction that they just have to talk very loudly and point at things repeatedly and everything goes their way. And this whole "just talk loud and fast, use emotion, they're like children" is just so extremely condescending.
34:50 Tessa is from Switzerland. She is not German. Other contestants on DRGER were from Austria. They aren't German as well. It is common practise for shows in German, especially reality tv, to take applications from other countries that more or less speak German. The abbreviation for those German speaking regions is commonly referred to as DACH (D Germany, A Austria, CH Switzerland). There are public broadcasting stations that show news from all three countries as well, like 3Sat. Also, Tessa not being from Germany explains her Promo look, which was the Swiss flag.
@@JesusP7 I'm glad you found that informative. I should have mentionend that during the money challenge towards the start of the competition Tesse also used the Swiss Franc as inspiration. Germany and Austria both use Euros as their legal tender.
I was so annoyed by her constantly having the German flag next to her name? I get that that‘s the show she‘s representing but would it have really been too complicated to say „representing Switzerland for Drag Race Germany“ or something?
I disagreed with almost every single take this man had 😭 how are you gonna understand how difficult it is for ESL queens to be funny in English but then also expect them to have full-on fights and stand up for themselves in English in the same breath??
@@JayBobert-h1l lmfao its still weird to me to be sympathetic about the language barrier when it comes to challenges but not the interactions between the queens \_(“/)_/
Also how is Nehellenia supposed to defend herself against stuff said about her in the confessionals 😭 it’s not like they’re saying it to her face and she’s just bursting into tears
honestly you guys act like nehellenia is being tortured on national television. it's a reality TV show and the fun part about reality drama is we can be on opposite sides of it and it doesn't mean anything serious, like politics or war. but then you ruin that by making it all seem this serious. he reads the interactions/fights in a different way, that's all.
13:00 Someone (maybe drag detective i cant remember) said that non-elimination would have been great for this season and you award Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals for each challenge and make it truly like the olympics and I loved that idea.
I think Kitty won this episode in part because her runway was much better than her other runway looks. She was ALMOST on par with the other queens' looks this time.
AGREED He's kinda weird for that. And the Nelly should be fighting for herself more when she was literally getting BULLIED by those same racists 🙄 Go gurl take all the weird takes
This show makes me so happy unlike global all stars where by the time the episodes finishes I’m miserable. Idk how kitty won over Pythia who clearly smashed both categories the snatch game and the runway. Then nelly was better than Kitty as well. Kitty only did well enough in one category which was snatch game.
Did you know that there was supposed to be a contestant from Spain? They brought her all the way there and then for some unknown reason she didn’t participate. It was Hugacio Crujiente from S1 of Drag Race España 🇪🇸
The all winners global is a good idea, but I might remember that not everyone speaks english, and learning a new language takes a lot of effort and time (years). That is something we should take into consideration. We could have an all winners global, but the show would have to make a lot of adaptations for it to work, like the usage of translators, subtitles or something of the sort.
tessa testicle used designers that worked on the package of other germany girls. i think this cheese thing was by the same person that did loreley‘s food outfit from what i remember but not sure.
Thank you for bringing this up because I have been half-remembering that whole runway but not able to place what franchise it was from and have been googling it unsuccessfully for weeks, questioning my sanity🙏
Shitting green does NOT absolutely mean you had too much food coloring every time lol. Green is a common sign that something is going on with your digestive system, you ate a lot of veggies, or medications can sometimes change the color
Why did Kitty's English breakfast outfit have blue kitsune tails? I watched this episode while on lysergide, and that detail somehow continues to bothered me more than RuPaul's crumpled butcher paper tiddies.
You guys not knowing loreen just proves your whole comment about there needing to be judges that understand the international queens. Loreen is huge in Europe so agree of the jokes probably flew over the heads of Americans.
Darby I want to be serious for a sec and thank you for the tasteful autism jokes lately. It's so refreshing as an autistic person to see it being done in a funny way without being offensive. :)
@44:45 How can Mano say that a TABLECLOTH has "Nothing to do with food"?!! I mean yeah, a tablecloth is not food, it's not edible but it's related to food. A picnic is a thing people do to eat food, you put food on it and it's a very English thing to do. I think it's a clever and different way to represent food that the other queens didn't think of and I think it's Kittys best look so far. Love ya xoxo
Yes, the lip sync was chosen so that Gala would not win. IMHO. This season has been sad! So many interesting queens that would have added so much to the season. No eliminations like AS7, and more international judges, might be better and more fair. ??? Thanks for the opinions! Love you!
it was IMHO guest starring on Mano's pod-cast that had me bee-lining to subscribe to your home. A great decision I made, that day. Not intending to throw shade, I just don't actively seek out podcasts but rather recommends or "guest" spots.
When I heard that Mano was married, I had to log off, go for a walk, catch my breath and reconfigure my future. In the words of Alexis P. Bevels: very respectfully, I would. And what would I? Yes.
Alexis, can you please post the shoes more shoes performance? Even just a clip would be fun. Now that you're in la, far from Chicago, I am glad for your opportunities but wish I could see your shows. Maybe next pride.🤞🏼
youtube recommended me the clip of that this week! I was like... okay i do have to google this man for science, and suddenly here he is? Sinister shenanigans are afoot
My problem with Gala Stan’s is that while yes, she is talented, why are people saying she was set up ?? Is it a set up when comedy queens can’t do sexy songs?? I think we are starting to lose the plot.
@@JayBobert-h1l like….shes very pretty but drag race isn’t just about being pretty….I WILL SAY!!!! That I do think the acting challenge she ate in, and I don’t understand the bottom placement that much, but people act like she was this top queen when really she wasn’t…
Feeling v seen listening to the credits chat, thank you so much for sharing. Alternatively, what if we tried keeping our thoughts inside rather than on God’s internet?
This has been my favorite review yet (and they have all been great). I loved mixing up the non-drag/light drag and guests. And I loved the distinctive personalities meshing together.❤
Was driving me nuts trying to figure out why Mano seemed familiar to me, and finally clicked when you mentioned Drag Her. Which I started because I love Nicole Byer but had to drop because I couldn't stand his opinions, lmao (I.E. his total dismissal of Vanity in this ep). He does seem nice though, and was funny in his banter with y'all!
Omg Mano on the empathy for the queers regardless of their defences is my new way to start living and socialising I hope I get a boyfriend out of it! Love you all
Honestly, hot? like he looks okay but by the time you do 180s on language barriers and act like you have to act like you're performing for children when it comes to foreign audiences is a bit insulting.

Mistaking Swiss for Swedish is the US representation we are not missing in Drag race 😂
Hahaha I was just about to point that out💀💀
would love to see your knowledge of the world. especially the Americas. :)
@@MusicSnob18 The US is within the Americas but the Americas is far more than just the US. Really not helping your point here lmao
Are you guys gonna review the new UK season? The premier was really strong and I know Alexis has a lot of free time.
im dying, you shady little bug
💀
😭 wooooow nene
ROTTED HAHAHHAH
security
Alexis definitely pronounced and used infinitesimally correctly.
exactly. she clearly should have said "infini-tessa-T-mally."
auntie chan looks kinda different today
Yeah, the chest hair really threw me off
@@jaybeeme😂😂😂
I will not stand for this Nehellenia slander coming from the guest this episode. Darby, put him in his place!
I love son, daddy, grandma
Just want everyone to know that Alexis P. Bevels did use the word "infinitesimally" correctly.
And pronounced it correctly!

And this whole "just talk loud and fast, use emotion, they're like children" is just so extremely condescending.
I’m trying to have restraint from commenting, but I just want you to know who much I agree with you 🎉
I didn't like this guest AT ALL.
Alexis looks soo pretty
She definitely looks 32 years old. Her skin is amazing. Post vomiting I would look like death 😢
So fresh and beautiful! I never knew what a diamond was under her (lovely) drag make-up!

That’s a wayyy better idea
American's not knowing, and therefore - not living for Vaniti's Loreen is perfectly encapsulates why this season is a flop
definitely living up to all the US stereotypes with the switzerland = sweden thing lmao. love the vid as always. can‘t wait for dragula!
I think Alexis looks glowing, so happy to see her journey going so well
unironically do a segment once in a while called ask stacy where you pay her and get her thoughts on random stuff? yes to henny
I think Kitty won this episode in part because her runway was much better than her other runway looks. She was ALMOST on par with the other queens' looks this time.
*shade rattle*
I thought Vanity as Loreen was quite good and pretty much spot on. Then again, I watched Drag Race Sverige and saw how Loreen behaved. 😂 😅
Idk who your guest is but racism isn't camp.
🙄
AGREED He's kinda weird for that. And the Nelly should be fighting for herself more when she was literally getting BULLIED by those same racists 🙄 Go gurl take all the weird takes
ALEXIS P. BEVELS, THE P STANDS FOR PERFECTION...SHE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL NEXT TO MR. DARBY
I struggled with this guest. Sort of obnoxious and the crispy R’s were hard to listen to.
Thought I was the only one but these comments make me feel less crazy. I just can’t do it I’ll see y’all in the next episode 😭 Ma-NO 🚫🙅
Me🤝Alexis
googling pictures of our local malls back in their glory days
Alexis and Darby on Dropout when????
I have been having (very chaste) fantasies about this.
Agreed! I need more Play it By Ear so they can be on!
👀👀👀
Ghost shits are real and Alexis was correct. Source: Very Delta
30 seconds in and we’re UP a cohost? what a shocking reversal from last week
I can't stand Mano but Alexis looks so gorgeous it helped me make it though the whole video
soooo interesting watching Darby on this show after twinnuendo like sometimes the Grant just jumps out of her
This show makes me so happy unlike global all stars where by the time the episodes finishes I’m miserable. Idk how kitty won over Pythia who clearly smashed both categories the snatch game and the runway. Then nelly was better than Kitty as well. Kitty only did well enough in one category which was snatch game.
I love that my DropOut/Drag love have been crossing over so hard lately!

this episode start makes me feel right at home :)
i have ibs
no. the lipsync was hilarious.
Alexis and Darby were so funny this episode 🖤🖤🖤
Finally❤

So she's really representing Drag Race Germany. That's so fun!
This Mano guy… loud and wrong
2:07 - every bottom’s nightmare of making a mess is bad enough but can you imagine if they were like “why is it green??”
TESSA IS SWISS FROM SWITZERLAND !!! NOT SWEDISH!! two different countries. it's not that hard...
UR rt everything should be easy for everyone. Make no mistakes people !!!!!! come on !!!!!
@@kathrynparker9790 mixing up those two by name happens a lot, so it is easier to be careful about it in the first place.
Shitting green does NOT absolutely mean you had too much food coloring every time lol. Green is a common sign that something is going on with your digestive system, you ate a lot of veggies, or medications can sometimes change the color
Wrong and pretty as always, Mano!
Also saying "oh she's doing Marie Antoinette" to anything rococo inspired is crazy, I'm about to become americanophobic
But her exit line was 'Let them eat Ga-la-la-la.'
@@Huschel1988 I'm sure she was inspired in some way, but i hear this every single time anybody on drag race does rococo
Thanks for the Bookend Poop Stories Alexis! It Must have been a real Relief to get that out of Your system. LOVE Blue!
Why did Kitty's English breakfast outfit have blue kitsune tails? I watched this episode while on lysergide, and that detail somehow continues to bothered me more than RuPaul's crumpled butcher paper tiddies.
Yes it was definitely more focused on the greasy-spoon-tablecloth-aspect than the food
49:00 it's cuz I'm immature!
Huh, maybe that's why people don't believe I'm 38, hahahahah ❣️
LOVE guest judges - can't wait for the NEXT one.
Sorry to this man.
You guys not knowing loreen just proves your whole comment about there needing to be judges that understand the international queens.
Loreen is huge in Europe so agree of the jokes probably flew over the heads of Americans.
I agree with the other judges, however I've known about her for a while and didn't find it funny. Good impersonation though.
Darby I want to be serious for a sec and thank you for the tasteful autism jokes lately. It's so refreshing as an autistic person to see it being done in a funny way without being offensive. :)

infinitestically, he didnt have a third ball, he had an intesticle.
darby you look sooo handsome i actually can't focus on anything, 1:23 this too-weary-to-be-truly-quizzical expression likeee damn
My favorite vloggers and my favorite blogger on one show 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 Is Nicole Byer in the room???
Alexis was fighting for her life on this episode LOL
Yes, the lip sync was chosen so that Gala would not win. IMHO. This season has been sad! So many interesting queens that would have added so much to the season. No eliminations like AS7, and more international judges, might be better and more fair. ??? Thanks for the opinions! Love you!
Y'all got my Friday off to the right start!
Canada is so proud of Pythia! 🇨🇦
Love Alexis correctly pronouncing infinitesimally. How dare they gaslight my queen
it was IMHO guest starring on Mano's pod-cast that had me bee-lining to subscribe to your home. A great decision I made, that day. Not intending to throw shade, I just don't actively seek out podcasts but rather recommends or "guest" spots.
I totally expected the sponsor to be Squatty Potty after that intro.
If you have never been horrified by the colour of your vommit you're missing fun and sparkle in your life
There could be 100 people in a room but it only takes ONE to be named Mano and host a comedy show
Never realized Darby does the ads as his twin.
I'm enjoying Global way more than I enjoyed the snoozefest that was AS9 honestly.
When I heard that Mano was married, I had to log off, go for a walk, catch my breath and reconfigure my future. In the words of Alexis P. Bevels: very respectfully, I would. And what would I? Yes.
Yup.. Grape soda! Every time!
Alexis, can you please post the shoes more shoes performance? Even just a clip would be fun. Now that you're in la, far from Chicago, I am glad for your opportunities but wish I could see your shows. Maybe next pride.🤞🏼
Loreen is not a fictional character 😅 she is a two-time Eurovision winner from Sweden😅😅
I think it's fitting this this discussion about GAS starts with talking about shit
Nehli has grown on me so much she’s a cry baby yes but she’s also entertaining and very charismatic
I dont know who this man is.. but best believe i started listening to his podcasts. Starting w his Melinda episode. Good stuff
Wtf I just watched Mano's crazy ex girlfriend episode last night, that's wild timing!!
youtube recommended me the clip of that this week! I was like... okay i do have to google this man for science, and suddenly here he is? Sinister shenanigans are afoot
Holy shit I knew I recognised him from somewhere and I couldn’t place it
Mah namanah is from an Italian snuff film about queer and swinging culture in Sweden
Loreen is a singer
Oh wow. I listen to Mano all time. I had no idea he was so fiiiiine.
the look of absolute horror in darby's eyes when hearing infinitesimally....
If they can do 'Game of Thrones' internationally connected....they definitely can do Drag Race!!!
My problem with Gala Stan’s is that while yes, she is talented, why are people saying she was set up ?? Is it a set up when comedy queens can’t do sexy songs?? I think we are starting to lose the plot.
Sorry but Gala stans are delusional she flopped week after week and her runways weren't even good lol

So glad I decided to watch this when I sat down to eat dinner! /s 💩

Monsters and Born Evil are both Amazing 🎉
I just started grotesque on FX that is good too
Please don’t bring Mano back. The takes were so bad. Racism is camp?
How stunning is Alexis though. The skin is SKINNING 😍
I thought Vanity started quite strong in the snatch game. Much funnier than Tessa (and than Alyssa, I might be alone in that)
Alexis and Darby should be on play it by ear
Omg Mano on the empathy for the queers regardless of their defences is my new way to start living and socialising I hope I get a boyfriend out of it! Love you all
Maybe he can work on his empathy for Nehellenia 🖤

Oh wow I’m early! Hi girls.
Im so tired of unqualified “hot guys” being given platforms to talk about the drag. 🙄
