RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Recap: A Perfect Foil
Briefly

The season has been marked by an unusual format and inconsequential drama, making it feel anticlimactic as the finale approaches. The inclusion of drag performances in the latest episode, featuring a reading challenge, talent show, and a runway showcase, provided a welcome change. However, the reading challenge lacked intensity, while the talent show suffered from repetitive performances. Some queens, like Bosco and Mistress, stood out with sharp humor and poignant critiques, but many others followed similar paths, leading to a mixed reception overall.
The show has struggled with pacing, featuring too many queens too close to the finale, leading to a stalled-out vibe that feels anticlimactic.
The reading challenge lacked intensity, with most queens playing it safe, though Bosco's sharp read on Jorgeous stood out and led to her victory.
Mistress criticized the favoritism displayed by the production towards certain queens, while grappling with her emotions after a disappointing Snatch Game performance.
The talent show often results in repetitive performances, diminishing originality, but clear concepts and high production value can help queens to distinguish themselves.
