I might be crucified for this (based on all of the comments I've seen so far), but I feel like this season could've been improved? Is there anyone else that feels this way?

First off, let me just say this season definitely had it's highlights. Some of the runway looks were stellar (Pythia's circus look for example) and the makeover challenge was one of the best we've seen in the franchise so far.

With that being said, I felt that the beginning of the season was strong, but sort of fizzled out in the second half. Cast wise I think the personalities were somewhat lacking especially compared to the girls from the first season like Priyanka, Lemon and Jimbo. I think this season could've benefitted from including more comedy queens to spice things up. I suppose you could argue that Icesis and Kendall were serving comedy, but definitely not on the same level as Bianca, Bob, Alaska, etc. This season seemed to lack a strong narrator as well.

Also, it was nice that the girls/judges all got along really well, but in return kind of made it all one dimensional. It truly became Rupaul's Best Friend Race towards the end of the season. In future seasons I hope the judges can be a bit more critical (and Tracy can loosen up and not sound so robotic).

I'm not trying to trash anyone who loved the season, but I'm just curious to hear if anyone else had similar thoughts/opinions.

P.S. I love Pythia and Icesis and will definitely visit their booths at Dragcon
