Jantar com Drags

Seems very overproduced and something about the show doesn't hit the spot.

The concept of the show is amazing. I've always wanted a 'Come Dine With Me' drag show but I think it should be like this you sit everyone down and the cameras follow the guests more than the cooking side of it.

A couple of things that don't hit the spot below though as if they cleaned up a few things, it could be an amazing show;

1 The David guy doesn't sit well as just seems to be there for literally no reason and brings nothing to the show.

2 Neil Patrick Harris feels like he was placed in the show for some reason. Not sure what that reason was.

3 The Murray host's voice grates on the ears.

4 Camera needs to focus on the guests and not on the "cooking".

5 The whole back of house stuff is awkward and crap too. Like, c'mon.

I was really looking forward to this! The concept is great with amazing cast. However, the execution is awful! You can truly see when they make a "real" joke because the cast laughs candidly and it's fun and relaxed. Most jokes are however, forced. The editing is incredibly jarring, there's too much happening and jumping between events. First, I can see that the decorations are done, next, they have jumped back before they're done with that and they're cooking. They should've made the editing more logical according to time. Should've also been honest that they are finished with the concept ahead of time and just slowly introduced it in the beginning instead of making it seem as they're on a time crunch. "this is what we have planned and will now make a reality". Incredibly difficult to follow along, TOO many jarring cuts with too many things happening!! I can see through the awful editing that this could've been great, the cooking could've been so FUN but all we got was the messy jump-cuts. We can't get to know the teams at all with the constant jumping around, so there's no real reason for us to cheer for any of the teams. I would have really liked a second season of this with a more calmer and logical editing.

This could've been so good it has such a great cast of drag performers. The idea was there, but the execution is an abomination. I don't understand why they wanted to do something completely fake. They could've actually just done the concept as a dinner, as normal, and just relied on the mess that would've come naturally. It's boring because it's so fake. It doesn't grab your attention because it's so fake. Drag performers are artists, this isn't art. The whole ditzy stupid I don't know what I'm doing just got taken too far. Such a shame on a wasted opportunity. It's highly unlikely this will make it to season 2.

Had me laughing and intrigued so much I binged it in a night! Beautiful, cheesy, funny, ridiculous, loved it. Don't take it so seriously it's freaking satire! They are drag queens, it is supposed to be ridiculous, extra, and campy. Some parts are funnier than others, but I laughed during each episode and loved seeing some of my favorite queens! I enjoyed the fact it didn't take itself so seriously and wasn't all super professional. It wouldn't be as enjoyable if it was like that. It reminded me a little of The Match game in the 70's, kind of unscripted, funny, free reign, ridiculous, corny, in the best ways!

First, I totally get the campy vibes & humor. It's so important to continue to show and celebrate Drag. They're truly some of the most talented people out there. So, I love that this is providing more exposure to the art. But the pacing of the show is so choppy and sloppy. My brain cannot handle it. There are too many things going on and not a cohesive storyline. It bounces from cooking to Sue Chef to cooking to singing to cooking to beefcake helpers to cooking to a dinner party. I felt like I didn't know where to focus. It also looks like an elementary school kid filmed it. Sorrrrry, but this show is a drag. Heh heh heh.
