The cast is meh! For the past season they all blur together. The talent show was meh, nothing special. 
UK season 4 was better for me

I feel like this Season everybody is doing this Young, dumb, twink, laganja Kind of character and I‘m over it.

Lucky Starzzz is gonna win.

[gagzus 14,755]

I’m obsessed with Kori King and have been for YEARS god I need her to win

[Real Panda 7,627]

I actually liked the episode except for the lipsync song. Katy Perry had a weird energy like she didnt contribute with the runway jokes and that werkroom surprise was meh, she spent more time talking about the tucking tape gag. And Joella, the one queen who stan her had the worst talent show performance.

 

My ranking of the talent show:

1. Suzie Toot (good tap dancing skills and comedy timing)

2. Lucky Starzzz (Jimbo-esque performance which I loved)

3. Jewel Sparkles (dancing kinda good)

4. Acacia Forgot (bad start good finish)

5. Lydia B Kollins (good start bad finish)

6. Arriety (just twirling a skirt for 1 min)

7. Joella (claims to be a high energy performer but barely moved for 1 min)

My ranking:

 

Suzie Toot

Lucky Starzzz

Acacia Forgot

Jewels Sparkles

Arrietty

Lydia B Kollins

Joella

 

I don't appreciate lipsync numbers if you don't bring anything extra to it. A appreciate Arrietty for bringing some mexican traditional dancing but she looked nervous as hell and that showed in her technique. And still a lot better than what Geneva tried to do last season, that was embarrasing.

Acacia deserved better tbh 

[Ricardo 7,698]

finally a talent show worth watching! 

I actually loved Butthole's performance even she didn't get the best critiques, but Suzie Toot deserved the win easily

Felt quite disrespectful to Have Winning Queens being hit by nasty looking cakes. Choices.

Several interesting Queens.

[guacamole 39]

I genuinely forgot how bad Woman’s World was 

Thought the episode was fine. Katy Perry was not a good premiere judge choice though. I would have loved to see someone new like Chappel or Sabrina. Or Charlie? Or anyone else lol

Very good episode for me lol so fun, love all the queens. Many amazing looks, some amazing talents. Very excited for the season, feels like S15 was a revitalization and S16 was incredible so I hope S17 continues the trend.

Arietty & Joella clear bottom 2 for me, sad for Acacia but she's giving early out vibes.
Really liking Lexi, Kori, Suzie, Lana, Sam, Crystal seems very sweet and supportive.

Katy had weird energy most of the episode, feel like she used to be very genuine/'real' but now she's hmm...
