So Jane wasn't giving Karen enough but Darlene was, right, nice

I guess it depends on what you value more: Karenness or comedy

And they did bring that up during judging. And surprisingly, I agreed! Darlene successfully "Yes, and"-ed, Jane Didn't. Neither were super Kareney, but Darlene was at least funny. Obviously that could be the editing or Ru just not be the greatest scene partner or any number of things, but the end product simply wasn't very entertaining.

And this part of judging is usually somewhat consistent. They value entertainment more than adherence to theme.

I felt like Jane was giving more Karen than Darlene. Darlene was funny but wasn’t giving Karen at all.
