"Television is a goddamned amusement park."
Since Merle Gingsberg is guesting this week on RuPaul’s Drag Race, I thought it only appropriate that the incomparable Megan McLachlan returns to help me read these dolls to filth. Let the bitching commence! For newbie RuPaul’s Drag Race fans, original permanent judge Merle Ginsberg might not ring any bells. For the first two seasons, …

Editor’s Note: Last but not least in Awards Daily TV’s Emmy Nominationpalooza, here are Megan McLachlan and Joey Moser’s predictions. They even predicted the guest categories! When you’re done here, be sure to check out my and Clarence’s predictions in Drama, Comedy, Movie/Miniseries and Reality/Variety/Animation. When all the crying is finished tomorrow, maybe we’ll tally …
Can you believe the season finale of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” coincided with the Canadians/Rangers Stanley Cup Playoff Game? What a tough choice for Logo fans. For those that tuned in, they got to see Bianca Del Rio crowned queen, the tough-talking insult comic with the sweet chocolate center. It’s interesting to see the range of …

“It’s me, BenDeLaCreme! I’m back!” said Michelle Visage at the beginning of the “Sissy That Walk” episode. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the real DeLa, much to the chagrin of many “Drag Race” fans, who took to Twitter last week to vent (we were on suicide watch). In terms of favorites, BenDeLaCreme was the great sickening hope …
At the onset of the “Glitter Ball” episode, Courtney Act claimed that in a journal she had predicted the top five. Now either Courtney Act is clairvoyant (a good drag name: Claire Voyant) or she, too, had quickly realized the talent this year wasn’t as stellar as other seasons. (We want to see a copy …

Ladies and ladies, we’ve hit the top six! And as Darienne Lake would say, “Any little slip can take you out of this game.” Which is why girlfriend was throwing banana peels everywhere. For this week’s mini-challenge, RuPaul asked the queens to cover their bodies in paint to create a “Twerk of Art” inspired by …
Even though last week fans were treated to Rupersized episodes of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” only one queen went home in the two-part installment, so it was really only like one episode (a moment of silence for our fallen queen Laganja Estranja. . .mmmmk?). So now it’s down to seven queens. We’re getting very close to …
I bet when First Lady Michelle Obama came up with the “Let’s Move” campaign she didn’t envision a bunch of drag queens stroking melons. But in Monday night’s “Glamazon by Colorevolution” episode (the first of two in a Rupersized series), Mrs. Obama was the inspiration behind Mama Ru’s first challenge of the night: queens man-handling …

There comes a day in every man-dressed-as-a-woman’s life when she’s challenged to channel a ‘90s rapper. And in the “Oh No She Betta Don’t” episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” that day was today. If “The Snatch Game” episode is the Oscars of Drag Race episodes, the “Library is Open” episode is the Golden Globes, a …

Remember when everyone couldn’t wait for the “eating bugs” episode on early seasons of CBS’ “Survivor”? That is kind of the same thing with the “Snatch Game” episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” Only instead of bugs, DR fans get to eat up bad celebrity impersonations and double entendres. The best part of this annual episode …
