RuPaul's Drag Race Recap: Expect the Expected
Briefly

The reality competition has reached a predictable phase after several notable eliminations. With the strongest queens remaining, the upcoming episodes may lack dramatic tension as the focus shifts to less competitive contestants. While episodes serve a purpose in advancing narrative and developing characters, they may feel like filler as viewers recognize the inevitability of certain outcomes. The week, characterized by a Rusical challenge, showcased exceptional performances, but the overall lack of drama diminished emotional stakes and engagement for the audience.
"What I'm saying, basically, is that if you told me before the week began that Jewels, Sam, Onya, and Suzie would be in the top... that's the most surprising thing that happens this week."
"Without much intra-queen drama and without much question as to who the performers who are eligible to go home are, you get episodes like this: no frills, no real drama, and no stakes other than who will win."
