RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars' tenth season ends with little excitement, marked by a formulaic structure and weak storytelling. The semi-finals lacked the energy to reignite the momentum from the brackets. Kerri Colby was revealed as the Wild Card in a lowkey return, exemplifying the failure of the bracket format as her prior exit lacked impact. The lipsync finale, while free of poor performances, failed to elevate the competition, limiting opportunities for stronger contenders and leaving audiences feeling uninspired by the season's lack of narrative depth.
The finale gives us seven lipsyncs without a dud among them, but they bring All Stars to a close with the season never finding much of a story to tell.
The semi-finals have been a hodgepodge of stumbling to reignite or completely smother the momentum the queens created in their brackets.
The quick succession of Snatch Game, talent show, and now Lipsync LaLaPaRuZa is Drag Race being more snoozily reliant on formula than ever before.
Kerri Colby's return as the Wild Card feels lowkey and signifies the failure of the bracket format, as there should be more momentum behind her return.
