RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: Your Story Is Quite Harrowing


What Drag Race does to Suzie Toot this week is actively mean, but I won’t claim it’s not entertaining.

The show did enough to set up the story that it still has a lot of pathos, but this challenge is just too weird, and we don’t see enough of the planning stages, where we’d need to see her continually making bad decisions, for it to reach its full potential. Anyway, during the writing session, Suzie says that she’s doing an Anything Goes theme, and Sam says she’s leaning into her country roots, and Onya and Lexi, respectively, tell the camera that they think that’s a bad idea, which turns out to be right. Jewels is next, claiming she wants to combine the worlds of burlesque and high-energy dance, and I don’t think that’s the stretch she’s selling it as, but it’s a functional sound bite.
