    AVAILABILITY! I've never considered this a factor when rating TV/movies but this is thoroughly important if you want people to watch. The main show is in its 10th season and I STILL can't find a reliable way to watch. (I have Verizon FiOS, Netflix, YouTube, natch...) Apparently some cable providers allow you still 'buy that channel' option, and Hulu at least pretends to have it behind their paywall. But the only other options are pay-per-episode via iTunes, Play Store, etc. No.

    I love love love Rupaul's Drag Race! It's my guilty pleasure and I have watched all the seasons available on Netflix several times. Therefore, I would naturally assume that I would love All Stars as well.Unfortunately the formula has changed. Rupaul does not function as the omnipotent "ruler". Instead she gives much of the responsibility of the decision making to the competing queens. This opens up the opportunity for some really unfair and biased decisions. Do the queens judge on critiques, track record, or friendship? Ultimately we are left with a show that looses a lot of its fun due to the added drama and unfairness of the queens making the decisions. The game also seems somewhat fixed at times with some queens finding themselves at a disadvantage and others with all the "good parts". All in all, I really do not appreciate All Stars as much as I do Drag Race. All Stars mostly leaves me a bit frustrated and disappointed. Having said that, underneath the "new formula" there's still that resemblance to Drag Race and its funny and ridiculous challenges that I love. So you still get something out of it. Whether that is enough I don't know.For a Drag Race fan, All Stars is almost inevitable, but I wish the show would be based on a more fair judging and challenges..

    I feel like every All-Stars series is fixed. In season one, it was easily geared towards Chad Michaels to earn the crown. Now, we can all see that Ru and the judging panel wants Alaska Thunderfvck 5000 to win. In the earlier part of this season (as well as season five of the normal Drag Race show), Alaska was judged fairly with the rest of the queens. In this last episode (RuPaul's Fish Tank), Alaska's advertisement wasn't nearly as humorous as Alyssa's, or even Tatianna's (who was in the bottom). Her runway wasn't as fierce as Tati's, Detox's, or even Roxxxy's. I was once a fan of Miss Thunderfvck in the competition, but now, it just seems that the producers have it set so she wins everything she possibly can. I wish the judges would go back to judging on the substance and beauty of these queens, rather than simply doing whatever Logo asks them to do.
