Honestly, although I give it a 10 that is purely from an entertainment value perspective. The complete lack of and disrespect for any semblance of a plot or real consistency whatsoever became so ridiculous towards the end of the season that it actually became outrageously entertaining. From characters literally teleporting long distances to make important events in time; the students actively advocating for failure and the demolishment of the school; them actively encouraging and participating in cheating during pivotal academic tests; the lack of any setting or backstory or parents for these high schoolers, and worst of all characters being shamed for making sensible, possibly positively life-changing decisions, the show was entirely surface-level, superficial and honestly highly entertaining if you're just looking to turn your brain, eyes and any form of common sense off and just enjoy the show. I truly hope it gets renewed for a season 2.

Warning: Spoilers
Really good cast of queens, mix of really funny & strong personalities sadly ruined by utterly confusing judging decisions. Often times the judging is quite literally the opposite to how the queen actually performed in the challenge (for e.g. Lawrence High on the stand-up when she didn't have a single joke, with Tayce bottom 2 despite being the objectively second funniest) and it really takes you out of the show. If you can completely ignore the competition element of this competition, and simply focus on the queens themselves then you will enjoy the season, but ultimately they need to stop framing the show as a competition because the best queen rarely wins. Lawrence was edited to be the winner the entire season and it was pretty annoying because she simply was not the best. She wasn't horrible, definitely top 6, but there were several queens who were simply more entertaining throughout.
And honestly, why bother having a finale and a lip-sync for the crown if the worst lip-syncher ends up winning? They even said that she was poor in the final challenge and yet still gave her the crown anyway. Just disappointing.
