Sloppy Structure Lack of Integrity Overshadows Good Performances
6 June 2020
The lack of show structure poor production oversight get in the way of potentially a great concept. The show doesn't know if it wants to be X Factor, RuPaul's Drag Race, a platform and documentary for minority queer and trans youth, a production magic behind the scenes peak of how the sausage is made... so it tries to be all of them. The result is more or less kind of a mess. The show doesn't spend enough time on any of these subjects to allow for the audience to get to know or fall in love with the people and houses at the heart of the show.

Another issue is there is no structure to how the judges reward, eliminate, or provide feedback to the teams. Instead we have a a sloppy setup that makes the judges look like they are not qualified to be there, and or they are judging based off of favorites. The show spends way too much time on the judges and their (mostly negative) "feedback". If this show wants it's Emmy, they better take some notes to more structured shows like RuPaul's Drag Race, and work on the likability of their judges.
