Episode 534: The Comeback S3 Ep1 - "Valerie Gets a New Chapter"
Alright Mary: All Things RuPaul's Drag RaceShow Notes
The name on everybody’s lips is gonna be…Valerie! After a disastrous attempt at Chicago in New York, diligent picketing with Fran Drescher during the writers strike and setting into condo life with her finance dude Marky Mark, Val has a chance to get back on network television, just as soon as ChatGPT is done writing the script. Along the way she loses Jane, keeps Patience, consoles Billy, reminisces with Tommy and of course cherishes her time on the pod before she attempts to make one more comeback.

More from Alright Mary: All Things RuPaul's Drag Race
There's plenty of good and bad to be had for this week's design challenge. There's also a bug, which eliminates Lucky before RuPaul gets a chance to.
The latest gaggle of UK drag royalty head down the pub to put on a talent show about, well, the UK. More importantly, we’ve got nicknames for half of them already.
There's only one way to decide the winner of this season, and it's not by points earned or challenges won or alliances made. It all comes down to disco. The surprise of the season is the surprise of the night as Joey Jay becomes the first out homosexual to make it to the Top 2 of an All Stars season. But there's been a Methyd to who Ru would likely crown all season and not even a little rain in MacArthur Park was going to stop Evan Mulrooney from giving Crystal a scepter and a closer look at his ass in those gold panties.
A who’s who of seasons past—and Jackie!—are back in the workroom for Canada’s first all stars season. A mix of early outs and runners up get into pageant mode for swimsuit dancing, talent acts that don’t involve lip syncing, gowns the house down and gentle critiques from Season 1 sisters before, right on schedule, Neara goes the distance in Untucked and then sends Miss Cox back across the border.
A stripping snowman, a crying cheerleader, a dancing homosexual and some exhausted backup dancers round out the final episode of the semifinals in this week’s talent show. Crystal’s method seems to be working this season, A’keria’s puppets were not and Sam’s star power just isn’t enough to send her to the finals.
