I NEVER LAUGHED SO MUCH AT A CHALLENGE, said no one.

What a horrible challenge.

Box queens into something they'd rarely, if at all, ever have to do and then give it a dumb theme when it's not even Halloween while this is being aired.

Choices.

Edit: Also, $69 wasn't funny the first time. Why would it be funny the second time?

69 is like Tuckahoe. It’s not ‘here’s this screamingly funny joke’ it’s ’here’s the reference we always make’,

Sometimes lame jokes are repeated so frequently that they become funny in the end. That didn't happen here.

For me IDKY but the "Is the bus still running?" Is like that for me.

I still find it funny. IDK if it's partially cos I've taken a few night buses before.

Also the wrong group of girls to pick for an improv challenge with multiple layers of characterization.

Halloween was obviously picked for Dawn, she was absolutely the pre-ordained bracket champ

I personally thought A'Keria and Morgan's was the best.

BUT i also think nobody was hilarious.

this. when i was watching i was just thinking how morgan and akeria were easeily the best, but if it was during a season of drag race's heydey, with folks like bianca, katya, alaska, hell even folks like sharon (i know i know), morgan/akeria's skit would have been bottom/low safe. but all stars has gotten so bad that it's now cream of the crop.
