Drag Race Italia (2021)
What a DRAG
I mad this account just to write this review because I was SO disappointed in this show. Every episode was a different shade of frustration.
First thing first : the editing. Or lack of it more like. Was the RAI in charge of the editing or what? Every scene dragged on and on and on and on. The judges critiques were way too long and it was mostly unnecessary cheesy crap. The head judge made it a personal habit to express with as many different words as possible the most mundane criticism ever. And it always ended with im happy for you or im disappointed in you. Could have just said that and spared us the agony.
Next the elephant in the room. They sent home one of the best queens for...causing drama? For saying bad words? What. The. Hell. Enorma made this edition interesting and they send her home halfway. To quote Raven "I could NOT believe it". And she claims it was about BLASPHEMY. Can you imagine??? A drag show sending home someone over BLASPHEMY. I know that blasphemy is a big thing in Italy, but let's be real. This is a drag show. It's already breaking norms and taboos. Be gay do crimes.
Also Luquisha made it to the finals and she had ONE creative look for which the execution was terrible and looked like anime convention cosplay tier cardboard from 2006 cringe couture. The most talented queen also didn't win...
Disappointing overall. It was the first season and it could have been so much more. I don't know if I'm gonna watch the second one. 1 star just because it's the first season ever.
