There's plenty of good and bad to be had for this week's design challenge. There's also a bug, which eliminates Lucky before RuPaul gets a chance to.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get full access to our coverage of DRUK S8, plus Canada's All Stars S1, All Stars 11, The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

The latest gaggle of UK drag royalty head down the pub to put on a talent show about, well, the UK.

There's only one way to decide the winner of this season, and it's not by points earned or challenges won or alliances made. It all comes down to disco. The surprise of the season is the surprise of the night as Joey Jay becomes the first out homosexual to make it to the Top 2 of an All Stars season. But there's been a Methyd to who Ru would likely crown all season and not even a little rain in MacArthur Park was going to stop Evan Mulrooney from giving Crystal a scepter and a closer look at his ass in those gold panties.

A who’s who of seasons past—and Jackie!—are back in the workroom for Canada’s first all stars season. A mix of early outs and runners up get into pageant mode for swimsuit dancing, talent acts that don’t involve lip syncing, gowns the house down and gentle critiques from Season 1 sisters before, right on schedule, Neara goes the distance in Untucked and then sends Miss Cox back across the border.

A stripping snowman, a crying cheerleader, a dancing homosexual and some exhausted backup dancers round out the final episode of the semifinals in this week’s talent show. Crystal’s method seems to be working this season, A’keria’s puppets were not and Sam’s star power just isn’t enough to send her to the finals.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get full access to our AS11 episodes, plus The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

In the words of Deborah Cox, "My heart says, 'no, no'...nobody's s'pposed to [go home]!" We celebrate this week's addition to the Drag Race Lip Sync Hall of Fame (albeit with a little delusion) before discussing why this challenge format doesn't tell a good story and how you can splice in Darlene Mitchell saying, "Banana!" every time Joey used that sound board.

A spoken word lip sync challenge inspired by VH1 archive footage of The RuPaul Show from the 90s is exactly how we should be ending this Pride month and this bracket.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get full access to our AS11 episodes, plus The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

The roast meets rap battle is back this season, which means Megami has been busy writing! Joey Jay shows her velvet rage, Shuga shows her sweet tooth and everyone has something to say about Sam's hand me downs. And let's hear it for the ladies who lip sync, featuring Kennedy at her most unhinged and Hershii in an outfit that should have everybody rising.

The third bracket hits a home run when it comes to casting, but there are more than a few foul balls for this week’s athletic themed design challenge. Kennedy Goddamn Davenport buckles but doesn’t break, Joey Jay hits all of Ru’s buttons, Jasmine follows the Jorgeous Rule, Shuga might be getting a pretzel at the mall, Sam has balls, and Hershii just can’t stop wearing pants.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get full access to our AS11 episodes, plus The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

A gaggle of gay dads joins the workroom to show off their father figures for this week's makeover challenge. Salina strategizes herself into delusion, Vivacious has the judges saying "yesssss honey", Silky serves creamy and crunchy, Crystal perpetually indulges herself, Aura doesn't keep her pinky promise and April gets the final bite of the Tres Leches alliance.

As a wise queen once said, if you've got any tips, send them my way. This week, Bracket 2 shows their expertise via shortform video in things like jerking a chicken, duckwalking the dead, making tostones with your t**s, nutting on a banana, helping a puppet get her cheating boyfriend back using a chorizo and a chainsaw, and baking a cake while a miniature version of yourself reads you from the lid of a sugar bowl. There really is nothing else like this on television.

Two is a pair and six is a bracket as the second batch of All Stars arrives this week to duet to it. Silky has a puppet this time, almost everyone but Crystal has a strategy, Reneé Rapp has a background in dance, Untucked is unhinged cringe and the lip sync for the win was, well, enough.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get access to all of our AS11 coverage, plus The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

The queens are scaring up sales for this week’s spooky home shopping improv challenge. The scariest part is that they have to do it in pairs, or more specifically, that Lucky and Mystique have to work together. Dawn makes the judges howl, Morgan does in fact do pretty well for a dead bitch, and while it seems like Akeria’s got this all wrapped up, it’s ultimately up to Ru to choose between an old favorite from Peanuts and a Davenport born to do drag.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get access to all of our AS11 coverage, plus The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

It’s the elder millennials vs Gen Z for the first bracket of the second tournament style All Stars. A double stuffed premiere gives the queens the rare opportunity to write a rap verse about their fierceness, design a look using a pile of stuff and wriggle into some panties for 60 seconds. Along the way we get Latoya celebrating a birthday, a fly, a ladybug and a Roach, one of those Hudson kids and a pocketbook full of air.  Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get access to The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

It's finally time to decide if Darlene's special kind of stupid, Nini's mechanically engineered drag or Myki's versatility earns the cash and the crown. The whole episode is kind of uncanny valley of the dolls but Miley stops by, we get to meet the people who produced all of those Meeks kids, Ru dances for no one, Jane gets a $10k tip from her sisters for mopping the floor with them most of the season, Onya gets offa the throne and this season's responsible babysitting theater kid from Orlando kicks off her motherfucking reign.
