    For context: This video was posted before the whole Season 15 episode length debacle, back when the only 40 minute episodes were shot with that length in mind (seasons 1-9) rather than it suddenly being tacked on later (season 15).
    Yes, I think season 15 has been ruined by the episode length and because the cast is SO big with these tiny episodes. That being said, I still think seasons 1-9 had great stories, pacing and they allowed us to get to know all the queens because they were edited well (unlike season 15).
    I don’t necessarily fully disagree with myself in the vid since I still love seasons 1-9. But I also don’t fully agree either with myself here either.

    • @KG9551
      @KG9551 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I wouldn’t mind the 40 min episodes if (thinking of season 15 here) they didn’t take up 10 minutes of every episode with the mirror scene crying awful childhood trauma stories (is that an unpopular DR opinion? Did I do it? 😂)
      I understand we want to get to know the queens better and in earlier seasons when the sad stories seemed to come out organically, I didn’t mind… but now they seem so produced and forced. And it’s like every episode too. I don’t watch drag race to watch drag queens cry and make me depressed dang it!

      @@KG9551 agree, and the problem is that those mirror scenes started during the longer episode era, when we could take 10 minutes doing that and still have a fully-formed episode. but now that they're a common feature of the show, the editors wanted to include them in season 15 even though it meant cutting the content we care more about seeing. the 40-minute episodes of seasons 1-9 didn't have those.

    • @jaykknight2248

      I prefer the 40 minute episodes. Period. If the editors aren't good enough to tell a story in 40 minutes ....what are they doing? We have 20 minute cartoons that tell more story than some drag race episodes tell in 90 minutes.

    The Makeover is one of the worst "classic" challenges of the franchise. The judging is always iffy, one of my favorites is usually sent home in this episode and the queens kinda lost their protagonism to become Fairy Godmothers to their made-overs.

    also all stars 1 should be commended just on the cast alone, the caliber of talent sitting in the same room is insane, and the untucked is just legendary. #teamlatrilla #teamrujubee

    My unpopular opinions:
    1. I actually quite like the snatch game of love. It switches up the formula and allows for some fun answers and interactions.
    2. Half the time I skip the lipsync for your life/legacy. I just find the lipsyncs uninteresting and the winner is usually obvious before the lipsync even starts.
    3. All stars 5 should've had a double crowning for Jujubee and Shea.
    4. More older queens need to be cast on the show. Since season 13, there's been a lack of experienced queens in favour of young queens who all look the same, have the same style of drag, and rely on lipsyncs to get by.
    5. All Stars seasons are a way for Ru to crown her favourites and the riggory is beyond obvious. All stars 1 was for Chad Michaels, 2 was for Alaska, 3 was made for Bendelacreme before she eliminated herself, 4 was made for Manila before she was eliminated, 5 was for Shea, 6 seemed to be in Ginger's favour before the final lipsync, and 8 is definitely for Jimbo (why else would she be cast on a non-international season?).
    6. Sasha Velour's returning look was better than Violet's.
    7. Shuga Cain would've made top 4 if production gave a shit about her

    I agree that there have been other amazing looks like Violet's since hers, but for me that dress is all about the MOMENT. I watched the finale when it was airing and I still remember how my heart stopped when I saw her appear in that dress. I GASPED, everyone did. She looked so regal and otherworldly... It's simply something you don't forget. The dress (and the whole look) is amazing on its own but seeing it in the moment and in the context of the finale was what made it so iconic. I haven't kept up with all the later seasons on RPDR so there very well may be a look that would top it for me, but it will forever be my favourite memory of a RPDR look.

    I agree so hard about Violet's Season 8 Finale look not being the best look ever. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful look and the construction of the dress is lovely. But when you look past the prosthetics and the snitched in waist, it becomes not so unique. There are simply looks that I personally find more iconic and beautiful like Kim Chi's mom look from the Book Ball, Rock M Sakura's Tulle dress, Utica's Sleeping Bag Dress, a lot of Jaida's looks, Shea's skin look from AS5. Those were just some looks of the top if my head that I think of more often than I think of Violet's S8 look.

    Mik def should’ve been low for discomentary, but she at least gave energy where Tamisha didn’t. And it fully made sense to judge the makeover challenge as teams the same way they’ve judged every other challenge where queens are paired up.
    Other unpopular take is I think a runway should be able to save a queen from the bottom if it’s significantly strong enough even if they did the worst in the challenge. See Veronica getting saved with her Medusa runway in UK2. Cuz otherwise what’s the point of having runways each episode.

    My unpopular opinions:
    1-Not all of the international franchises are created equal and we need to stop shaming people for keeping up with their favorite especially if their favorite is the original US flagship.
    2-The fandom is not toxic. They are just passionate and enjoying the show. We need to stop shaming them for having opinions.
    3- Silky should have won AS6. AS6 was a good season but not as good as people give it credit for.
    4 - AS8 has become quite an entertaining and cutthroat competition and history will look back on it favorably.
    5 - Shangela did not deserve to win AS3. Dela or Kennedy made more sense as winners but Trixie was the right decision for WoW.

    @brickmariobros ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Here’s what I think they should have done with All Stars 1
    Since they were limited to 6 episodes, and they wanted a decent sized cast, instead of having teams, they should have done a bottom 3, instead of a bottom 2. Think about it, this is All Stars we’re talking about, the best of the best, so make it so that one little slip up could send you end the bottom. Also, to keep it at 6 episodes, eliminate two of the bottom queens each week, and have one win the lip sync.
    I probably didn’t articulate this that well, but I hope it can be at least understood

    • @brickmariobros

      @@RunnerEye I feel like the first two eliminated probably would have been Mimi and Tammie, mainly because of they were eliminated early on there original seasons, and production wouldn’t want them to go far. I feel like Pandora would have made it farther, Probably not too 3, but definitely top 4 or 5. Everything else however, I’d have to do more of an in depth analysis.

    I don’t mind the 40 minute format, but the production needs to FILM for the 40 minute format. There’s a way to give the queens the proper format needed to showcase their package, but the production needs to film for storylines that can be filmed in 40-min time slots and not be overloaded with content that they have to pick and choose what is crucial enough to keep.

  • @marioescabi2529
    @marioescabi2529 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Definitely agree on the episode length. It should’ve been 40 min and all stars once every two years or something. Ultimately quality over quantity, we are getting so much drag race that the quality goes down. Things that used to be hyped like a double save or double boot or split premier are now boring cause it’s all the time

    Even though the makeover challenges are bullshit because of the crappy judging (it’s basically a chance for the producers to save/eliminate whoever they want to because it’s so hard to judge a challenge like that, as a lot of it is subjective), I think the process in the workroom is great for storytelling because a lot of the time the Queens get to show their softer side with people who they aren’t directly competing against. So like the challenge as a whole is bullshit but for storytelling narratives it’s pretty useful imo.

    @ivyrosetheroseofdeath ปีที่แล้ว

    I think that the 1 hr format gives to the larger cast size that the show has to fill for the contracted amount of episodes. Other than that I think that the 40 minute length can be just as fulfilling as an hr. I also agree that seeing the queens on drag race for a 3rd time is actually a good thing bc I think sometimes production is too fast to cast the girls on all-stars right after their season when there hasn't been a chance for all-stars level growth,.
