The Mini-challenge was totally fun and campy. All the queens were hilarious with their "kid" get-ups plus Lady Morgana looking more of an aunt. It was just a totally good time to watch... until it hit a bit of sour taste when the Maxi Challenge started.

Assigning specific OPM Divas to the queens were reminiscent of the same Diva challenge in RPDR All-Stars 3 (when Thorgy felt already defeated just after being given to play Stevie Nicks' part... and eventually led to her elimination). That alone did not sit well.

It feels like it favored too much to Precious winning the challenge as she is known to impersonate Regine in her gigs. The judging was kind of a cringe especially towards Brigiding and Minty.

Bottom two was understandable but personally I'd rather choose someone else to replace Turing.

Despite all of that roughness, it's still a solid episode (plus the fact that it's hard to follow-up the great Episode 3. That song "Pop Off Ate" is still playing in my head, for goodness sake.)

DRPH is no better than Down Under. I used to think that DRPH is the best of all international franchise but this episode just proved that it is no better than Down Under.

1. This episode was a set up for Lady Morgana to go.

2. They assigned Moira to Minty for them to have that "wake up pearl" moment which was sooo forced!

3. They placed Turing undeservingly in the bottom to send Lady Morgana home but too bad she turnt that lip-sync.

4. Marina WON that challenge.

5. The Judges have clear favorites and I'm annoyed about it.

EDIT: Ok I just got emotional. Rewatching the episode, it was not that bad. I still had laughs. I never thought I would look forward to mini challenges which I usually skip on regular franchises. So It is unfair to rate this 1. Changing my rating to 6 stars. :)

One of the highlights of a Rusical challenge is fighting for roles. Even in All-stars, Queens were given the choice to choose their Divas before filming and prepare a look. Having a pre-selection was shady because it kinda feels like the producers are setting up queens to place high or low in this episode.

Turing should not have been in the bottom 2. Periodt.

Whats with the background music? It was all over the place, the volume needs to be mixed better. Choices.

I'm not gonna be hypercritical on the production because im proud of my country having a franchise, but there are some camera shots in the Rusical that are blurry/weirdly angled.

Overall, the Rusical that is supposedly iconic was a missed opportunity. I still enjoyed the episode tho. Also, can it observe more brevity and cut more unnecessary clips, make the pacing snappier

Love you DRPH promise, just this episode was not it.

One thing the judges got right is she did not disappoint you. Because the only thing that disappointed us was how horrid that judging segment was.

There were two clear queens who messed up in the challenge but one got marked as safe despite the judges acknowledging that she did a bad job. And fine, she had an okay runway, but that wasn't enough to remedy how bad her performance was.

Then a judge had the gall to tweet and say that she just judged fairly despite actually saying on the show that she places the other queen on a different metric?

The riggory, it's far too much.

The three stars though are for the three queens that really delivered on the challenge without that disgusting smell of production riggory. Viñas, Xilhouete, and Turing, thank you for truly capturing your characters.
