Joining me for my final installment of DRAG RACE ILLUSTRATED is Shanté DéTroit, a fabulous Chicago queen and good friend of mine!Chad: What did you think of this reunion/finale/crowning?

Shanté: I thought this was the best reunion yet. It stayed entertaining from the beginning until the end, and they had a few surprises!

Chad: I did really appreciate how many jokes, ridiculous dance numbers, and emotional moments they packed into this finale. Generally, I'm really skeptical of the format they've used for the last few years, but they pulled this one off!

Shanté: Exactly! In the past it almost felt anticlimactic. This finale was definitely a spectacle, and they got it right down to the camp and glamour.

Chad: What did you think of the red carpet looks some of these queens brought? Did you see any vast improvements from what you saw earlier in the show?
