tv show Canada's Drag Race | Season 5 | EP1: Go Off, Queen

[Puttanesca]

I thought Lady Boom Boom was going to win the season. 

[loveisdead9582]

I’m genuinely shocked that Lady Boom Boom went home instead of Kimmy. Her snatch game was terrible and her runway also wasn’t great. LBB’s runway was amazing. Hopefully we’ll see more of her on an all stars season. 

[NumbSoul]

This was a VERY strong episode, but the results left me heartbroken

From the SG introductions it was obvious Kimmy and LBB were gonna be the btm2, who are my two faves  

 

Ultimately I think the judging was spot on. The correct winner and tops, as well as bottoms.

Although, while I do think Bombae being low made sense, the reasoning didn't... Her runway was a slay, but LBB's was even better. Bombae's SG wasn't as bad though, which is why she should've been saved, but the runway reason didn't make sense to me. 

 

Both girls slayed that lipsync, but Kimmy did win.

It's just a shame they couldn't have done a double save, cause LBB is a star and one of the best contestants this year...

 

Also that Fierce montage at the beginning jhshdva  

I ****ing love her, truly Miss Fiercalicious' Drag Race.

This is a great cast with a hellish boot order

How could I forget to talk about this iconic moment? It was so unexpected, I found it hilarious. She’s really carrying this season on her shoulders!

I know right? I feel like Miss Moçu, Lady Boom Boom and maybe even Halal Bae had a lot more to show.

The way I gasped when they announced the lip sync song

 

To be honest, I am not understanding the disappointment some of y'all have about the lip sync.  I thought it was great!  Kimmy did one of the cleanest dips the show has had in years and Boom Boom kept the energy up right until the end where it just kinda fell away in comparison to Kimmy.  Overall though, I thought the lip sync was strong and it's nice to have these lip syncs coming off of AS7 and S14 where they were all mediocre for the most part.  

I don’t know, for me this lip sync had the potential to be one of the most iconic ever given the song choice, but it ended up being just fine. They both did good, especially Kimmy (although I can’t blame Lady Boom Boom for not doing more considering what she was wearing), but it lacked that wow factor that I expected from it.

Meanwhile Irma is just there existing each week 

[stevenisFADING]

that lipsync was not giving. 

i know if it was Manila she would have ATE. it would've been a story for the ages she would've told!

it should've been a double sashay for the disrespect they did to that lipsync tbh.

The way her only highlight so far was a good (but definitely not outstanding) Snatch Game... Yeah, mama needs to go. Jada lowkey too, she's not doing it for me.

Glad I'm not the only one who wants her gone... Her, followed by Jada and Vivienne pls. And give us Legend Boom Boom back  

[Dragonfly]

Ugh, instead of answering the questions properly (yet in character), most queens just write random stuff that leads into unrelated jokes

But what an interesting runway  Some queens really took it in a clever direction. I definitely would have wanted Arsenic for myself

 

Them making fun of Brooke's terrible Celine will never not be funny. But notice Brooke is lying... Boom Boom had the best look of the night

I was not that impressed with Giselle tbh. She basically had 1 'main' joke that she kept building on. She did that well, but I wanted more

It should have been Vivian's win  Sad to see Boom Boom go. I needed her in the finale, but she really Bomb Bombed snatch game

 

Why did no one reply "Madonna??" when Jada said she was doing 'Material Girl'  Or is it just me

Looking forward to the Jeffree Star challenge next week

Noooooo Lady Boom Boom nooo

This is definitely a week they could've pulled more producer shenanigans and either kept them both or put someone else in the bottom (Jada/Fierce preferrably)

Personally, I thought Boom Boom embodied the vibe of the song more but Kimmy had the better track record so I can understand their decision.

Lady Boom Boom for the next All Stars please!!! I love her so much! 

Kimmy literally had a single more high tho And LBB's win was more definitive than anything from Kimmy's. They could've done a double shantay tbh

giselle devoured and irma needs to go

True but we haven’t had an Asian frontrunner in a while so Kimmy staying ultimately made sense.

[Iceland]

Kim and Fergalicious deserve a spot in the finale. Both are hilarious.

 

this cast > season 1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> season 2

[Death]

Sorry but that Snatch Game could’ve easily been a S14 Lip Sync LaLaPaRuZa Smackdown again  and Boom Boom would’ve stayed

Yeah Irma’s Marilyn was very BLAND and the way they ATE THAT UP. Her jokes were good but the delivery was DULL. Gizelle truly slayed her Marie Curry. The winner I fear. 

[Hurem]

Not me thinking Boom Boom had the chance to win  

 

Snatch Game was not funny… at all  Probably my least favorite episode so far.

[Hephaestus]

Am I the only one to think Vivian actually had best answers and back and forth in general? Like yes, Giséle's gags were funny, but Vivian's quick wit was unmatched in the challenge.

I didn’t find Irma funny at all  she should have been OUT several episodes ago.
 

Jezebel was good but her answers and back and forth with Brooke wasn’t funny, it was just that she stayed in character and acting goofy with the radiation/teeth/hair falling out gags.

 

But naur I agree, I liked Vivian better and was hoping she would win.

[Blankspace2010]

Gizelle won hands down!

[Graves]

S1 must have been a fluke. 2 and 3 have had some of the all-time worst snatch games I've ever seen.  

[alfonso12]

Not them eliminating the best queen  this season keeps getting worse. 

[genetic fail]

If Jada makes it to the finals with her mediocre track record

[ucanfma]

I am happy Bomb left the hardcore stanning is kinda annoying not a lot of peole said that she should have won more episodes 

She did even answered two times with the same answer  in snatch game it is very lazy

her second sewing product wasnt even as good as people here wanted to pretend
