Planning to catch up with Mexico at some point but not just yet I was going to tag you  I absolutely agree with you on France - it's truly everyone's game at this point but there's a clear front runner aka my and your favourite! There really only has been one questionable season, thus far, on France but overall, they're proving to be one of my favourite franchise. I agree with you in regards to Nicky, as I think she really use her experience to guide the queens. Also Daphne and Kiddy are two incredible judges ; I love seeing some representation from the ballroom scene on a drag race panel. Time to cast some DRF queens on one of the vs. the world!

*Chris Posted August 4 Author Share Posted August 4 Just finished watching the premier of PH ; I am excited for the season - there's a lot of promising talent, and some of them really delivered in the group number. Looking forward to meeting the other 6 queens!  In regards to Mexico, I am behind a few episodes so I'll need to catch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that she’s your favorite too  I’m obsessed! Her run so far is insane.  Agreed, love the judges! And ready for Soa especially on a vs the world but, yes lots I’d love to see! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Chris Posted August 8 Author Share Posted August 8 Just caught up on Mexico ; Overall, the queens are great and lots of good runway looks. That being said, Lolita is eating Valentina alive in the host department. And some of the choices are questionable like them constantly sleeping on Regina Voce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes!  I could see the queen that went home compete on an Vs The World - potentially another Canada vs the World as they were born in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Chris Posted August 19 Author Share Posted August 19 Drag Race France: Â An excellent Top 4! The winner is clear and so is the runner up. Â The episode was very good especially the group they gave a makeover to especially for their openness. That being said, I would have put Mami in the bottom over Punani or Piche as she had my least favourite makeover and look of the day. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
