The Jinkx and DeLa Holiday Special

Jinkx Monsoon and Ben de la Creme in a Christmas special that packs a punch, where nothing and no one is spared and the nasty jibes against everything that seems sacred to everyone at Christmas and yet is so hypocritically bypassed land at least 90% in the pit of the stomach and the laugh muscles at the same time. Add to that an amazingly good singing voice by Jinkx and the result is a brisk hour of good entertainment, provided you have a critical attitude towards church and religion anyway. Otherwise, you might want to throw Molotov cocktails into the TV.

The humor is crude, but really funny. So glad I decided to not watch this show with my mom, who is a big Drag Race fan. It would have been awkward.

After this horrible year...this is the perfect way to brighten your holiday season!!! These are two of my favorite drag queens and I was thoroughly entertained.

I knew her from Drag Race of course, but when I saw INFERNO A-GO-GO! In Ptown, I left convinced that DeLa would at some point accidentally write the 21st century's answer to "Angels in America." That hasn't happened yet, but she's definitely getting closer with each outing.

DeLa's dedicated to silly puns and gags, but her ambition and perfectionism always pushes her to be more insightful than the campy dictates of the form demands. The most "blasphemous" joke even turns out to a little profound.

The half hour covers a *lot* of ground and a lot of costumes. Jinkx is certainly no second fiddle and is in fine voice throughout. The two play off each others' persona's with ease.

We definitely need more specials. There's a bit too many "whimsical" takes on alcohol abuse here but there's a lot of very sharp meta-commentary going on as well. Sometimes needing everything to be "just perfect" pays off.

It's a drag show.

Super clever writing. But it is Book of Mormon-level irreverent.

That's right up my alley, and I bet it's right up your (back) alley.
