This week’s roast is rapped up and hot to go! And for some queens it was even pre-written! The burns start well before the challenge between the feuding Brookses and one Texas diva left out of the alliance. Meanwhile Butthole is torn between two mother figures but Jorgeous continues to feel very muggy. Chappell Roan makes some noise on the judges p…

It is alas our last supporting episode! After almost six years, we are looking back on our Top 10 favorite episodes, performances, quotes and new obsessions born out of hopping on microphones every week to talk about women (and sometimes men!) in supporting roles that we love. As a wise woman once said, it was never a burden, it was an honor. But a…

Bracket Two gives us a couple of Brookses, a Butthole, a Colby, a comeback for Mrs. Burner and a now three season veteran who is still too young to legally rent a car. We get the ball rolling with a ball, but this episode is mostly Isabella holding court in the workroom, derailing the Ru-Sees and dueling with Tina before getting royally face-cracke…

It’s time to put pen to paper and likeliness to college basketball player for this week’s girl group makeover challenge that decides who will join Irene in the semi-finals. Principal Skye is in full effect, Bad Babysitter Bosco has the Goddess in capable hands, Olivia makes beautiful music with Heaven spelled backwards, and there’s no alliances lef…

It’s the end of the world, or at least the end of the world as Hannah, Prior, Louis, Harper and Joe know it. Roy is left with nothing but the haunting of Ethel Rosenberg in the end, who herself finds peace through tradition (and believe it or not, Louis). While Joe’s fairy tale comes crashing around him, Prior chooses life, Harper chooses San Franc…

As a wise woman once asked, are y’all ready to rock and roll? The first bracket of All Stars is kicking off this season with a glam rock girl group before getting their knives out for a southern fried murder mystery. Irene the Alien crash lands into a redemption arc, Aja is giving tristate area hair stories, Principal Skye is back from sabbatical, …

The Angel, some ghosts and Mother Pitt descend upon New York. Harper vanishes to Antarctica by way of Prospect Park, Prior turns prophet, Hannah ends up in the Bronx, and Joe and Louis kick off a situationship straight out of East Hell. Speaking of which, Roy Cohn has become the demon of St Vincent’s, but Ethel Rosenberg has arrived to keep him com…

We are taking on the heaven-sent HBO television event of 2003, “Angels in America” and specifically the first two episodes this week. Not only is it a Big Important Gay Story, it’s directed by Mike Nichols and stars Meryl Streep, Mary Louise Parker, Emma Thompson and a series of straight men playing impeccably gay, especially Jeffrey Wright. And th…

It’s been Onya’s season to win since she walked into the workroom in that vest, but this finale had us a bit nervous. Sam’s red carpet and Lexi’s rollerskates left them both primed for an All Stars comeback, and Crystal winning Miss Congeniality mayo feel righty real! But it all came down to the burger queen of Cleveland vs Tampa’s answer to Tracee…

Edie, get some ice cream! We’re celebrating 2009’s “Grey Gardens” with that fine HBO polish, impeccable prosthetics, a sweeping score, the wild range of Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore working harder than anyone to bring Little Edie Beale to life in all her glory, misery and resilience. Jeanne Tripplehorn’s Jackie O, Malcolm Gets’s Gould and Ken H…

The Top 4 take a break while the eliminated queens duke it out for $50,000 and potential reputation redemption. We get a Liza With a Z disrobing, wall to wall wig whipping, Joella’s little skirt, Crystal’s condiment heavy compliment, Bruno’s hosting skills and a final showdown between the Poor Little Matchstick Girl and the HBIC. Become a Matreon a…

How wonderful for us, to spend another 8 weeks in a season of “The White Lotus”, a show made up of essentially all supporting characters. We’re counting down our favorite guests, staff and scene-stealing accomplices as we pack our bags and head off towards whatever becomes the next pop culture moment to feed the meme machine and produce endless Tik…

The final five roll the dice on the chance to join Drag Race LIVE! in Vegas, but first they need to do a pseudo TicTac lunch with Latrice and film a kiosk promo for an act we know nothing about and never see. We do get a Ru directed photo shoot, but it also feels 14 weeks late. Then it’s coats and a cloche on the runway and two different Rosses on …

The 2018 Mary Kay Place vehicle “Diane” may be a bit of a gloomy drive around a weathered stretch of the Northeast, but luckily it includes a bevy of character actresses and Broadway legends in the passenger seat. Estelle Parsons, Andrea Martin, Joyce Van Patten, LaChanze, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Phyllis Sommerville, Dierdre O’Connell and Glynis O’Con…

It’s time to make the Top 5 cry by bringing in their moms and dads for a makeover challenge. Which also means it’s time for us to play casting director. We get to see Suzie as Mrs. Toot’s son, the hurricane of emotions that is the Loves, Mrs. Star as Debbie Novotny, a sparkling sausage daddy and Nunya Bidness LaBelle. Become a Matreon at the Sister…

Pull up a park bench at a bus stop cause we’re talking about a true 20th century American classic, “Forrest Gump”! Despite its comedic quotability and punchline of a lead character, it taught millennials with cable in the 90s so much about Vietnam, drugs, dad rock, and just about every way you can have shrimp. Gary Sinise’s Lt. Dan is everything yo…

As a wise woman once said, this is interpretive dance. The Top 6 are pairing up to present their childhood traumas while their partners shimmy and slither their version upstage. Things then get ugly on the runway. Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get full access to our recaps of "The White Lotus" this season, plus movie reviews and past…

The season has been no stranger to feuds, even passive aggressive ones started through mirror messages, but this week it’s between the queens and a sombreroed Ross Mathews with a compromised larynx. Or is the feud really between director Cheyenne Jackson and his leading man/unofficial AD? Then of course there’s Lexi vs Lexi’s idea of Suzie, and app…

We’re heading all the way down to that mansion in Mill Basin for 2024’s Best Picture, “Anora”! Mikey Madison is the lucky lady having a wild two weeks on the arm of Ivan the Terrible, before Best Supporting Toros comes knocking. Yuriy Borisov gives a Sister Agnes style BSA nominated performance as Igor, Diamond shines, Lulu helps, Garnik barfs and …

A Bachelorette, a Housewife, a Royal and Zac Efron’s brother manage to survive a self-destructing turret of Traitors picking each other off and spiraling out week after week, then band together to bring an uplifting and triumphant end to the season. Carolyn easily won the reality TV game, but Gabby’s cultural impact, Dolores’s 11th hour redemption,…

The girls are spiraling over a lineup for this week’s Villains Roast, and plot twist, the biggest villain in the room is in their heads. But upside, Lexi continues to breathe fresh and also totally unfiltered air into her workroom interactions, to say nothing of her prop work or those nails. Meanwhile Arrietty pouts to an inevitable conclusion, Sam…

It’s gonna take more than a bus full of nuns, a few cans of smoke and a good copier to elect a new pope in 2024’s “Conclave”. Isabella Rossellini makes a meal out of what is essentially an extended cameo as Sister Agnes, quietly instrumental in helping to bring down potential papal candidates and making way for a somewhat hopeful twist ending. Join…

It's the third design challenge of the season, this time not inspired by a board game or garbage, but by iconic fashion designer Betsey Johnson (Not to be confused with another famous American upholsterer)! We're very in our 40s this episode, so not too much on our formative pleasures like Crocodile Mile, but we also dig into Lana's delusion of sel…

Gabby gets gaggy at this week's roundtable, perhaps in honor of Carolyn, in what is potentially Danielle's swan song. That is, unless we have to wait a whole week to find out Ivar finally went home. Will Brittany repeat history by making it? Will we ever find out who the Seer is? We'll just have to tuck in our shirts and keep our arms down till nex…

Pam Anderson’s performance of Shelly in “The Last Showgirl” gets better the longer it marinates in your mind, but Jamie Lee Curtis as the cocktail slinging ashtray Annette is an instant high camp icon, and it’s clear that Jamie Lee is having the time of her life as the down but never out best friend of a Las Vegas showgirl in her final days on stag…

The game takes a tragic turn this week, but one not necessarily out of line for a show called The Traitors. Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get full access to our recaps of "The White Lotus" this season, plus movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.

We are diving into Season 3 of “The White Lotus”, where deeply unhappy rich people spend a life changing (or ending) week in paradise.

We’re finally talking about this year’s perplexing Oscars frontrunner Emilia Pérez! Is it absolutely El Mal? Well, Zoe Saldaña certainly deserves the BSAs this awards season, Édgar Ramirez is a total babe and Adriana Paz is a welcomed addition as Best Supporting Epiphania. But the more you know about this movie, the more you realize it’s giving Tom…

The Snatch Game comes early this season, giving us eleven reasons to wonder if this challenge needs to finally be blanked. Luckily we get Lexi as Gilbert Gottfried as Lexi as Gilbert Gottfried, Onya on the ball, Alyssa Edwards in the hot seat, Ru openly criticizing Lana’s performance mid-game and a talking butt plug. The runway feels very pointed a…

Act Three of the season has begun, and this week is admittedly Sandoval heavy, but maybe that just means he’s out next week. Sam emerges with a good idea at breakfast, Gabby’s social media has propelled her to BSA status and Dylan is following the producer playbook. Danielle should be shaking in her boots at this point, aside from all that other sh…
