Not Naysha being right about the Jaymes' payola from the producers got the girls pissed off.

They saw what they saw, gurl.

I wonder if they will keep the same energy for Kandy and Jimbo because Jimbo 100% deserved the bottom this week and Kandy did NOT deserve that win

It’s kind of sad how everyone in a thread where opinions are usually split, everyone agrees that this season is horrible. Honestly the worst AS season which says a lot  

AS5 with contestants quitting every week and Crook payola is right there. Literally unwatchable if it wasn't for Alexis and the drama India brought.

Shea Crookeé?

Miz Crook I fear. I found Shea annoying in the season (re: the roses storyline) but she at least showed some talent and was the only viable winner. 
 

Just a low tier season in general. Blair St Bore almost making the finale says it all.

i'll give her the 2 weeks excuse because these are well put together and fit her right. even though she clearly pull half of these out of her closet and try to make it fit the category.

but queen like lalari and jaymes has no excuse 

[satellites.™]

Lala probs realized the money spent wouldnt be worth it, she knows she isnt winning.

 

She is leaving only gaining money like on her original season.

[satellites.™]

Thats why Heidi was so pissed, I think she saw a win and was pissed she got overlooked.

Heidi quit, looks like someone else is quitting this week, Kandy payola is in FULL effect. 
 

At least in AS5, Alexis, Shea and Juju were fun to watch. This season is literally just Jimbo with Jessica sometimes standing out. Everyone else is… very there  

[Melquiades]

I still prefer this season over AS5. That was a BOREFEST.

Very there indeed. This past episode solidified there’s very little charisma uniqueness or nerve left aside from Jimbo and Yessica. The rest of the girls are giving flat 

 

Jessica should’ve won this challenge. Her performance was just as good as Kandy’s and her runway was breathtaking. 

 

Jaymes going right before a comedy challenge… we all know Kahanno is next to go. Unless Kandy drives Alexis off the show like she did Heidi

Again, those girls literally picked their own lipstick, which provided nothing to the story. Heidi at least gave a moment and whatever happens next week looks like good TV as well. Down the road even if everything else sucks this season I’d go back and watch clips of Jimbo’s SG or even this rusical. There’s nothing of the sort in AS5. It was just awful tv. 
 

And I do think there’s more talent in this season anyway. Alexis is doing well and also giving good TV, Kandy has her moments and Kahanna gives looks despite flopping in anything other than performance. 

[Life Savers]

 

The audio mixing, cringier-than-usual lyrics and lethargic performances. Can't say the finale didn't reflect the rest of the season

okay! Bianca has officially redeemed herself as the pit stop's host with AS8!

Yea there’s no way this is worse than AS5

[Bimbo]

Yup yup, this isn't as bad as AS5. No one is as insufferable as Crack.

AS5 SG >>>>> AS8 SG. The recency bias is playing tricks on you, gurl.

Juju's "sensually walking" answer alone is already a legendary moment.

Yeah the pit stop for AS8 has been better than the actual season and really consistently great.

 

I feel like the first couple of pit stops of S15 were kinda off but she hit her stride later on.

I’m still preferring AS8 to AS5 & AS1. I have never been able to watch AS5 after 2020. Lol. A really rough season. 

[Riot]

Blair St. Clair was a TOP 4 queen on AS5. That already tells everything about the season.

[Both Sides Now]

For all its flaws, I still mostly enjoy watching AS8. I’m not invested in the outcome of the season but the episodes are fairly decent. 
 

It’s not like AS5 where it was a chore to sit through 60 minutes. Everything was off about that season. Eliminating Derrick first, Ongina quitting, Mariah & Mayhem basically being over it, India overstaying her welcome, the Bore St Clair payola, Shea on autopilot and the rose petal trauma, Miz Cracker in general.
