Entertainment shows like Drag Race are so much fun when we let go and not take them seriously. Didn't like the Game of Thrones finale? It doesn't matter because it's a tv show. Didn't like how Line of Duty ended? Let go, it's a tv show.
RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under is such a messy show, with frontrunners being eliminated early, contestants being brought back, questionable judging, and Kylie Minogue showing up as a guest... via video call. I mean, it's so hilarious.
In this episode, we have a gag moment from the onset, we have Scarlet Adams throwing Electra Shock under the bus for doing "20 splits" in the previous challenge, Anita giving us the unsurpassably joyful image of her playing trumpet in the Navy band.
Sure, there's nothing new here with regards to the format, it's a design challenge on Drag Race, but these characters are such a joy to watch, especially for those of us watching from lockdown.
So, thank you RuPaul for giving us more drama and smiles in a world that takes itself too seriously to remember that life is too short.
