- 52 min
The Boulet Brothers Dragula is a reality competition show that pits drag queens against each other in various challenges to become the next Drag Supermonster. Season 3 episode 1, titled "The Lesser of Two Evils," sees the introduction of ten new drag artists as they compete for a chance to win the coveted title.
The episode kicks off with the Boulet Brothers, the show's hosts, introducing the competitors and setting the tone for the season. They discuss their expectations for the season, highlighting the importance of creativity and originality, and emphasizing the need for each contestant to push the boundaries of drag.
The contestants then receive their first challenge, which involves creating a runway look inspired by one of two opposing themes: heaven or hell. The catch is that the contestants are not told which theme their fellow competitors have chosen, so they will need to be versatile enough to stand out no matter what they're up against.
As the drag artists begin to work on their looks, tensions rise and alliances start to form. Some contestants are confident in their abilities, while others struggle to find inspiration and question their place in the competition.
Once the runway show begins, it becomes clear that the contestants have taken the Boulet Brothers' advice to heart. The looks range from heavenly to demonic and everything in between, with each contestant bringing a unique perspective to their chosen theme.
After the runway show, the judges deliberate on the contestants' performances and ultimately select two drag queens to lip-sync for their lives. The remainder of the competitors nervously wait as the two contestants battle it out on stage, hoping to avoid elimination.
The episode ends with one contestant being sent home and the remaining competitors embracing each other, knowing that they have survived the first challenge. It sets the tone for an exciting season full of drama, creativity, and fierce competition.
Overall, "The Lesser of Two Evils" is a strong start to the third season of The Boulet Brothers Dragula. The challenge is engaging and allows the contestants to showcase their individuality, while the lip-sync showdown adds an element of suspense to the episode. Fans of the show will undoubtedly be excited to see what the rest of the season has in store for them.
