They really shook up the formula with several firsts. Guest judge pretending to be a contestant (for a few seconds anyway). No challenging photo shoot. No post-challenging-photo-shoot dedragging commentary. No construction challenge. No elimination. A queen from a prior season returning at the end of the first episode.
Impressions: Sasha Velour is committed to her aesthetic and produced quality looks. Eureka is amazing at pulling the camera with snarky comments. Valentina is super polished, especially since she is such a new queen.
Both Vegas queens seem to be body but little more. Perhaps their personalities will show later.
The season is heavily weighted to the east coast. One from Los Angeles, two from Vegas, two midwest, everyone else east coast.
Predictions: early outs are Jaymes and the Vegas queens. Eureka's quick wit gives the producers a lot of ammo to paint her as the villain, and as a result she lasts longer than she "ought" to. Charlie Hides will be eliminated "unfairly" by having to lipsynch when she doesn't "deserve" to. Sasha or Nina will get the "we need to see YOU" critique in two or three episodes.
Huh. Just realized that Aja was all "I will wear the actual kimono Lady Gaga wore" and then WORE SOMETHING ELSE. innnnteresting.
