And tomara was the mirror character to Alyssa (with her frenemy Caramel/Coco), and the underdog dog that crushed the comp (jinkx/ginger) ends up beating the total package queen (Michael/alaska)- etc  4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hétérosexuelle Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 It’s always jarring when the dancing girlie slays the finale remix challenge but we all know she has no chance and is eliminated before the lipsync for the crown   Like what’s the point  It makes the winner look questionable even when they are not 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyssa Edwards Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I was analyzing the whole episode and at multiple points i felt like Michael was being favoured and she really had the spotlight on her for the finale so i got nervous that she was winning. Â Very happy with the outcome, the best Queen at Drag Race WON Drag Race. That is satisfying to me, it's fair and it feels right. Also i loved all three of the girls in the top 3, they all were VERY likeable. Michael is so british it's actually insane. Â For sure the best season since S2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumbsparce Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I haven't watched the season but the winner is more of the Lawrence Chaney variety right? I've seen some clips and comments say that they were surprised Michael Marouli didn't win bc she slayed the last 2 episodes or whatnot but aren't these 2 kind of similar queens anyway? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael was basically the Bimini of this season. Slayed the latter part but peaked too late for RuPaul to care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GotMyBlueprint Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Michael stans being Bimini stans is starting to make sense to me...  Like @Alyssa Edwards said, the best Drag Race contestant (Talent) winning makes the only sense.  Some of y'all got really sucker'd into the US's overproduced and payola'd shenanigans and it shows.  Plus Ginger is the most charming out of drag too, like, get it together y'all.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiritboy Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 DeeDee looked fantastic in the finale. She's only 20 so she has a lot of time to polish her drag. I definitely see the potential there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dula Peep Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Michael deserved but also Ginger did devour the competition and let’s not act like that makeover challenge was a deserved win for Michael…  I’m glad that they seem to not just crowing the fan favorite but the person who did the best all season   4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unino Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 it's kind of underwhelming final episode because Ginger didn't bring it for me this week while she KILLED it overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
