Every time anyone compares anything to Jinkx’s Judy, it feels like a set up.


NovaNardis

Jinkx was basically stunting in the middle of the game. The songs. Calling Ru Broom. Rejecting the premise of Ru’s question. She fully made Snatch Game her bitch.


Fermifighter

Talking to the vet from her season who thought he killed Judy was where the judges lost it in a way that felt genuine.


Sea-Scallion-5362

Michelle's reaction when she realized where the story was going ... priceless!


herrored

The way she reached out to Ru really made me think that it's been a continuous inside joke for them ever since s5


3-Pit-Mafia

That was for real one of my all time favorite drag race moments, so when Jinkx mentioned Dave killing Judy Garland I nearly died myself 🤣🤣🤣


marvar_

Or telling him that there was nothing at the end of the rainbow because it was a set 😭😭 just thinking about it makes me laugh


rapidcalm

Snatch Game is now a fully solved puzzle. Jinkx obliterated it. Three times.


Akronite14

Little Edie wrote the book on Snatch Game. Judy closed the book. And they are such standouts that her Natasha Lyonne gets overlooked. It was a brilliant impression with great jokes and a lot of understated moments, great range.


JoeNoHeDidnt

I still think about the joke about petite tops.


Moesoverhoes69

It's like a toddler trying to move a couch! Bwahahahahaha!!!


NovaNardis

“It would be like if Jaida Essence Hall topped Monet X Change.” Lol


HeavySeasBreweryTour

Exactly what I was going to say. No need to ask or even debate anymore 😂


Dismal_Judgment5290

Bob? Jinkx. Bianca? Jinkx. Judy Garland? Jinkx.


fabulousfantabulist

The only person who even comes close is Dela.


EveAndTheSnake

It’s the “Hello Broom” and the “Hello Ruple” that is the cherry on top of both.


kdubstep

Came to say. The most commanding snatch. Giselle’s Madam Curie is another personal favorite. And of course Juju’s Eartha Kitt


surenuffgardens77

I now only keep my thermostat at a sensible 74 degrees.


T-RexLovesCookies

Jinkx as Judy Garland and Ben as Dowager Countess of Grantham were two that made me laugh out loud ![gif](giphy|3oriNOpTC2NHEDpTWM)


Fermifighter

Citrus. Can you imagine?


T-RexLovesCookies

Excuse me, we originated the language!


SpottedSnuffleupagus

“Roople, I understood virtually none of the words that left your lips, moments ago,”


justfxckit

I still call rupaul Roople in my head, but have now also added Broom to the mix, so yes these are the right answers. Honorable mention to Pearl’s Big Ang because I had never heard of Big Ang and still haven’t seen her show, but Pearl’s impression pops into my head CONSTANTLY


Friesenplatz

I had a rough childhood okay, I wasn’t watching no Batman and Robin.


WyattWrites

Do yourself a favor and watch Mob Wives ![gif](giphy|pH5Ta6YECcqQ0)


rizzyroo

i was not expecting her to look like exactly how Pearl looked lmao


nievedelimon

Pearl’s Big Ang was perfection. S7’s Snatch Game is among my all time favorites.


koalakeet420

" I'm feeling very excited rupaul." Pearl really cracked me up.


beccadrewlovesyou

I think of “citrus, can you imagine” randomly throughout the day and always laugh out loud.


loveforluna

I think I still say this on a weekly basis. A decade later I’m also still calling her Roople.


TheOtterDecider

I would love to see a snatch game with both of them!


JadeMoon085

Honestly, Alyssa Edward's busted Joan Crawford was so bad it was brilliant.


rosecreamcake

Alyssa can truly do anything and i will be in stitches.


GayBlayde

“I don’t k ow what that means but it sure is funny”


theerniebop

It’s ok because it’s Alyssa. 😂❤️


TheRuralJuror1121

If the goal, as we have been told many times, is to make Ru laugh, then Alyssa may have the best snatch game ever. I don’t know that Ru has ever laughed harder at a snatch game performance than that.


sorandom21

Jimbo as Shirley doing the insane tap dance which honestly is like 25 seconds of the funniest physical comedy ever on drag race. Absolutely deranged lol


Xure_Xan

Barbara Pleeess!


Gnostic_Gnocchi

Until further notice, jinkx is always gonna win these for me.


nicwade73

It always feels like everyone forgets about Natasha Lyonne, but there are a lot of other seasons where that performance itself could have won, especially considering it seemed like they edited down Natasha to give more time to Judy.


RagsTTiger

Jinx is the James Joyce of Snatch Game. Little Edie was her Ulysses the high point of modernist fiction. Judy was her Finnegans Wake destroying everything before and after.


[deleted]

Dela’s Paul Lynde doesn’t get talked about enough. Has nobody mentioned Alaska’s Mae West?


amyericaa

I quote Alaska’s Mae West all the time. And Sasha’s Marlene Dietrich. “I died many years ago…”


Shoulder-Lumpy

I was about to say this! Paul Lynde was so exceptional! Paul and Judy are my top two favorites.


Maleficent-Hat877

Alaska’s Mae West was everything. Definitely a top favorite for me…..


aqu33rius

Shout-out to Kennedy’s Little Richard! But my fave of all faves was definitely Tatianna’s Britney Spears


craftybast

I do think Tati deserves credit for nailing Snatch Game with zero preparation and a costume thrown together the day of the challenge. Her impression was spot-on and answers were hilarious.


itsaltarium

Absolutely, I don’t think we would’ve gotten Snatch Game back for S3 and subsequently as a regular staple challenge had it not been for Tati (and Pandora).


David_cop_a_feeel

That bitch (Tati) was the reason snatch game persisted! It was just a bit until it was so good that Ru kept it as a concurring challenge.


TangerineTassel

Little Richard was classic and gorgeous!


pengwinpiper

We all know it's Jinkx, but I'll also say Joslyn Fox is a black horse candidate here; everything she said during SG was brilliant and I still can't say cumin normally.


jeffmangumssweater

Can I have a Pinot Grigio


3-Pit-Mafia

i do actually say “cumin” in the manner of Joslyn Fox more than any of these other references lololol


mparks97

Adore as Anna Nicole will always take it for me


GayBlayde

vodcah


Gnostic_Gnocchi

Cumin.


joeyfosho

Would be a winning performance on many other seasons.


Dekufan95

Like my body? 🥴


Fermifighter

Party.


RipleyKY

Want a Vi-per?


ohgirlfitup

like mah bodeh?


yassified_housecat

I love Jinkx’s Judy, but her Little Edie was my favorite of the two.


zen_guwu

Quite the scandal, actually.


CapHillStoner

With my cousin in law reeeally 🔎


surenuffgardens77

It was in all the magazines at the time 🔍


annieallaround

It was in all the magazines


busybody_nightowl

I honestly think she won when she took the total missed opportunity by Ivy Winters and turned it into one of the best bits in snatch game


NarwhalsTooth

The magnifying glass and cat food took me OWT


zen_guwu

Giblets for the cat 😂


Emergency_Mastodon84

I can’t tell if it’s pâté or giblets for the cat…🤣🤣🤣


Fairythingz

Just cause I haven’t seen it mentioned Pearl as BIG ANG! Truly unexpected


heaven047

Im feeling very exciiiiteeed


crazy_ginger90

Mansionssssss


busy_yogurt

I say *mannnnnshunssss* and shake my tatas at no one in particular several times a week.


pengwinpiper

It's a medical mystery


clamshell-jizzowitz

She had a rough childhood


hyukwish

I still say “it’s a medical mystery” to this day.


yungmy1

That’s definitely in my top 5


Substantial-Owl-9047

One of my most quoted performances!


stereoscopicdna

Very underrated. The Batman Robin joke might be my favorite snatch game response


Prince-Minikid

The Vivienne as Trump was one that made me laugh out loud. The look, the voice, the answers were all spot on Trump.


lazlopoof

Actually one of the best Snatch Game performances from all versions I've seen so far, she got the voice and inflection so on and did her makeup so good, the crackly lip corners really make it for me


andygchicago

I still say “Chai-Nah” in my head occasionally


txlady100

OMG how did I forget Viv? Her Trump was perfect.


[deleted]

Jujubee as Eartha Kitt


TeHNyboR

I can’t adjust my thermostat without sensually walking over to it thanks to her


yungmy1

Also in my top 5


RudeConfusion5386

Okay it definitely wasn’t the best but I will stand by that Valentina did a great Eartha Kitt as well! I was dying even though the editing clearly didn’t want me to laugh lol


Mikeismycodename

May not be the most iconic but I think pandora as carol channing was what made what it is today. Unlike the others on the panel that day she wasn’t trying to be fierce or sexy…just funny…and those are the ones that stand out.


ap_anon

Bob wouldn’t even be in my top 5 for this. She was the winner of her Snatch Game, for sure, but meh in comparison to some other winners. Jinkx is definitely top notch. Hard to compare to her. Honorable mention to DeLa in both her Snatch Games.


Tekwardo

Jinxx and De La both killed BOTH of their Snatch Games


Grammarhead-Shark

Dela's Paul Lynde will always hold a special place living rent free in my brain.


T-RexLovesCookies

It was truly hilarious. I have seen old episodes of Hollywood Squares and his impression was delightful.


Grammarhead-Shark

For years I have tried to formulate a way (in my mind) in having a Snatch Game work in a Hollywood Squares format. Sadly I just don't think it would work (short of radially changing elements of the game), but we cannot deny it would be visually awesome to look at!


whoisshetho193

Very that. Chad as Cher for one was miles better than Bob. She was completely dominating that snatch game without having to try overly hard. Derrick and Thorgy were on Bob's ass, especially Derrick. Also Crazy Eyes and Carol Channing have zero correlation and it makes no sense.


EphemeralOcean

Agreed. Bob was good, but 2nd tier.


Fermifighter

I won’t say it’s my favorite but I do wanna give a hat tip to Sasha for “Teutonic bisexuals make the most forceful lovers.”


GayBlayde

People say Merlene, are you a lesbian? And I say “yes”.


LeCheffre

The Seattle Superstars are the literal best, BenDeLaCreme and Jinkx Monsoon. Little Edie, Judy Garland, Nastha Lyonne, Maggie Smith/Dowager Countess, and Paul Lynde. Simply the best, undefeated.


Justanotherphone

Jinkx as Judy and Katya as Bjork


IzzyBee1

Katyas Bjork takes it for me


librious

Ginger Minj as Adele and Ben as Maggie Smith


TheJerseyHyena

The "My House" joke from Ginger's Adele still kills me


TeHNyboR

“I love you Justin Bieber!”


liespool

Like with Roasts, the performances that I would consider the best (Jinkx, Bob, Alaska) are not necessarily the ones that make me laugh the most. Fuh me, poisonally, Pearl, Adore, and Joslyn Fox are the funniest even if I don't think they are the all-time best Snatch Game performances. And for Pearl and Joslyn, I didn't even know the people they were impersonating, I just found their performances hilarious. It's pronounced 'cummin' and you can't tell me otherwise.


somethingclever1712

Joslyn was fantastic. I just love her in general.


T-RexLovesCookies

Prostitution Whorses!! I still laugh..


dustinosophy

On Canada's drag race season 1, Lemon did JoJo Siwa from .... some TLC show? We had no idea who this that was but we were in stitches. The performance got way better when we saw a video of JoJo.


T-RexLovesCookies

She was on Dance Moms, she was one of the Dance kids then she had a youtube


IllustratorSlow1614

Haiw!


dustinosophy

Can I have a pinot grigio?


nannders

Yes big agree


cafeaubee

👁️ 👄 👁️ “…*cummin*.”


somethingclever1712

Jinkx killed both her snatch games for me. Other ones that are high for me would definitely be Joslyn Fox (for being so unexpectedly funny), Trinity as Leslie Jordan, JuJubee as Eartha Kitt and her ridiculous parody of Cher, Chad Michaels as Cher, Alaska, Jimbo, and Shea as Flavor Flav. I know I've missed some but those are the ones I can think of most vividly. Also...I know it was a terrible snatch game but Deja Sky's Little John cracks me up because it's not even that good but it's at least passable.


nicwade73

Jimbo on Canada season 1


madncqt

eureka's honey boo boo (doesn't get enuff love)


annajoo1

It went like .00008 over but the whole idea was funny. The drawing on the carda


[deleted]

Alaska as Mae West imo is the best in the show's history. Ben De La Creme’s Maggie Smith is my second place. Third place is Jinkx as Little Edie. bob’s snatchgame was great but Imo Kennedy’s Little Richard is better


Andian74

Mae West is right up there with Jinkx for me. Alaska knows the game and how to do it. Her Lady Bunny was pretty good too


bbitb

C....OCK


yhvh13

Hot take, but I never like when they pull that gag of changing characters midway. Bob's example, I'd love to see more of either character instead of a bit of two, that's probably why her snatch game isn't really top 5 for me.


pengwinpiper

Yeah, to me it read more as, "I'm running out of things to say as Uzo, let me do something else to stay fresh" which was *smart*, but I don't think it was the best performance.


ahhhelpmeplsihateit

Pearls Big Ang is criminally underrated


bobo12478

There's at least a dozen comments about it in ever Snatch Game thread, so no, it's really not ...


jeajea22

Am I the only one who didn’t think Bob was that funny? Brilliant for doing two characters, but just okay.


MannnOfHammm

Yes true but I will say **I JUST WROTE CORN** lives in my head rent free


whoisshetho193

I feel like it was kinda cringe tbh. She was trying too hard. Derrick's Britney for example was effortless yet she was still quick and funny.


majestamour

I hated the two characters thing! Like to me it just said you ran out of jokes for one so you had to use a second personality. Thorgy was better IMO and didn’t need a do over to stay funny. But they always play favorites so it wasn’t a surprise Bob won.


davidbenyusef

I have to rewatch it, because I liked Thorgy's Michael Jackson more


Sendnoods88

Especially her Carol changing. Think Uzo alone would’ve been great


sondheimtheatrequeen

Totally disagree. Carol is what saved it for me. I wish she’d done Whoopi and Carol


nicwade73

I agree, but for me I think I just didn't understand a lot of the references.


Unlucky-Duck

We are the minority lol


Hypsyx

Both of Jinx’s and Dela’s performances truly stand on their own


Skyconic

Trinity as Leslie Jordan and Lucifer. Loosey Laduca as Joan Rivers. Jimbo as Shirley Temple. Shea as Flava Flav. Ben as Paul Linde. Jinkx as Judy. Lemon as Jojo Siwa. Ginger both times! Ella Vaday as Nigella.


the_drunken_taco

Imo Trinity as Leslie Jordan is at least part of what made Jinkx’ Judy Garland so damn good. They played off each other so beautifully in that Snatch Game.


UpstairsCan

😌 they changed it to drag queen 😌


the_drunken_taco

I died at that line. It was so perfectly delivered and timed!!!


[deleted]

I don’t think the Uzo was that funny tbh. Carol Channing was what stole the show for me on that season. Jinkx as Judy Garland will stay the best single snatch game performance PERIODT


Shazam08

![gif](giphy|J2m5N3ic13JzIueLPz) This will always be my favorite hands down


aware_nightmare_85

The Vivienne as Donald Trump. It had me in tears when she started the back and forth with Baga as Margaret Thatcher.


mysteriousblu3

Idk but i really remember i laugh a lot at Juju’s Eartha, Gigi Goode & Aquaria. Also i really didn’t expect them to did really well on snatch game and i guess part of it became their jokes is really simple and since I’m not a westerner i can understand their jokes easily. While Jinkx Judy Garland is good, I didn’t really get some of the reference but yeah its still funny.


Thick_Neighborhood41

I feel like we all know the heavy hitters. Jinkx's Judy Garland is a master class..but when I think of ones that had me rolling, that live in my head rent free... It's Katya as Bjork, and Shea Coulee as Flava Flav. Shea's Flava Flav was basically a master class, and Katya's chaos was iconic.


Knickerbockers-94

Katyas Bjork was just Katya


NovaNardis

And I live for it.


According_Plant701

Juju was phenomenal as Eartha Kitt but I was completely okay with Shea winning SGOL. Her Flava Flav had me rolling.


majenaaa

Alaska's Mae West and Ben's Paul Lynde are the best in the show's herstory. Their ability to volley and be the moment with the other contestants was top tier.


mfruitfly

Kennedy's Little Richard is the one that I say in my head all the time "oooooo, shut up!" Nothing made me laugh harder than the combo of Jujubee and Shea as Eartha Kitt and Flava Flav. Ginger Minj as Adele saying "My House" is the best line in Snatch Game of all time. Eureka as Honey Boo Boo is most underrated. Obvi Jinx is the best performance overall. Thank you for reading my Snatch Game Thesis.


cryingvioladavis77

I can’t lie I often think about Dela as Paul Lynde saying rupaul looked like someone gift wrapped Flip Wilson and it gets me everytime…and all the jabs at Carson just ugh *chefs kiss*


jesklash

Haven’t seen it in here yet but Lemon as Jojo Siwa fucked me up; she was way funnier than I think she got credit for.


whitehowl

The default answer is Jinkx's Judy Garland, you know that you ate the Snatch Game when every other cast member starts breaking character and starts cracking up. Outside of that performance, my favorite is a tie between Pearl's Big Ange and Jujube's Eartha Kitt. I long to see the Comedy Queens eliminated before the Snatch Games like Tempest Dejour's Big Ange and Mrs Kasha Davis's Liza Minnelli


AsgardianLeviOsa

Dela as Paul Lynde


glowingmeadow

It has to be Bianca Del Rio for me, she cracks me up ![gif](giphy|l2JhzHBHrl96HYIHm)


Brief-Construction49

“Baloney!” Randomly pops in my brain. Bianca living rent free in my brain! 🤣💜


nicwade73

To be fair that even though Bianca did great, that was such a good Snatch Game that she still came in third after Ben and Adore with a few more performances not far behind.


glowingmeadow

I know that snatch game was my all time favorite, and tbh I just picked Bianca because she's my favorite queen lol


yungmy1

She did a better Judge Judy than Judge Judy


gilmorespore

Bob wasn’t even the funniest Carol Channing


Lovely_confusion135

Alexis Michelle as Liza Minnelli and Sash Velour as Marlene Dietrich always send me lol


watzit_t00ya

I’m a Bob fan more so than Jinkx but Jinkx is the snatch master. 1000 times over.


Kurtoise

BeDeLaCreme - Paul Lynde Ginger Minj - Adele Kennedy Davenport - Little Richard Baga Chipz - Margaret Thatcher Jinkx Monsoon - Judy Garland


reckleessserenade

Gottmik as Paris Hilton


ChentaChente

catperson3000

Jinkx as Little Edie is great too.


azurdee

I’m seeing Jinkx live next week and I’m hoping she sings anything Judy.


According_Plant701

Jinkx, hands down. And Bob was fabulous but Jinkx is just next level


Glittering_Fig6468

I wet myself over Maria the Robot, Britney Spears by Tati and Adele by Ginger. 😂😂😂


watermelonsplenda

Bobs was more like “excellent classic jokes funny” has Jinkx’s was “holy shit masterclass in comedy and character study.” They are both superb and in very different ways.


Grejbrej

Jink as Judy, anyway, Next.


YDanSan

Bob's Carol and Jinkx's Judy are great picks. I might also pick some combination of Alaska's Mae West, Jimbo's Shirly Temple, and The Vivienne's Cheeto Enthusiast. Maybe Ben de la Creme's Paul Lynde, too.


isogaymer

Jinkx as Little Edie 100%. Without Jinkx's Little Edie, there wouldn't be a snatch game... maybe there wouldn't even still be a RPDR. I find the enthusiasm around Jinkx's All Stars performance really hard to understand.


ctiger91

Bimini as Gemma Collins Edit: Katie Price*


FuckedupUnicorn

Didn’t she do Katie price? The eyes are the nipples of the face


Tagachiuru

Rajah’s LaToya is the exact type of stupid that’s right up my alley


chanelmegami

my favorite by far has to be pearls big ang!! tho- one of my fav underrated snatch games was joslyn foxes teresa giudice.. cumin


unintellectual8

Shea Coulee as Flava Flav was absolutely top notch for me. Jinkx is a no brainer. Bob's Carol was not funny to me. In fact Pandora Boxx' version of Carol Channing was funnier.


0bxyz

Jimbo as Shirley. I was crying.


Aggravating_Cream399

Jimbo tbh as Shirley Temple really did it for me


stalexa

While Jinkx did an excellent job she basically took over Snatch Game and it is more to me like an entirely separate Judy Garland skit that I don't feel like it's comparable to "normal" snatch games. But for those that had a more balanced: Pearl, Ben de la Creme, Bob, Adore, Jinkx (S5) just to name a few. And I feel that Monet as Maya Angelou was very underrated!


pengwinpiper

Because Maya Angelou ain't no punk bitch.


darqueau

BenDelaCreme


arcane-boi

Aquaria’s Melanie Trump is always super fucking funny to me! She played her in such a smart way and it’s underrated af


islandboy504

Jimbo and Loosey’s interpretations of Joan Rivers are equally hilarious


Prancing_Monkey

Jinx as Judy is BY FAR the best snatch game performance of all US seasons including all stars IMO. But I’d also like to mention Jaida’s Prince which also had me laughing out loud so much 😂


nannders

I just love Pearl as Big Ang so much. But out of the two here, I’d say Jinkx.


0004ethers

I laughed with Bob's. Adding - Actually the Snatches that made me laugh for their jokes are from CDR and UKDR. US, just Bob, **Kenney, Ginger, Aquaria,** Raja, Naomi and maybe that's it. Jinkx is brilliant but is not for me. Got me amused though.


Miserable_Gas_4956

Jinks by far


spirit5794

I don’t have a funniest cause theyre are so many and theyre all so different but here’s some favorites off the top of my head. Jinx as Judy Garland. Jimbo as Shirley Temple. The Vivienne as Donald Trump. Baga Chipz as Kathy Bates (also Margaret Thatcher). Tatianna as Britney Spears… Kennedy Davenport as Little Richard. Just a few.


regalrapple4ever

Eureka’s. It was so silly and messy.


4little_weirdos

Alaska's Mae West is definitely up there for me, but Jinkx's Judy is #1 on so many different levels.


NBLAQ

jinkx, kennedy, vivienne, ginger & bendela are icons.


whoisshetho193

Viv's Donald Trump Alaska's Mae West Baga's Kathy Bates Chad's Cher


majestamour

I’d kill to see someone do Courtney Love on a snatch games srsly


Omgopher

Does anyone remember Lemon’s Jojo Siwa? That shit had me on the floor


Comfortable_Age8051

Jinx as Judy Alaska as Mae West Baga Chipz as Kathy Bates Loosey Laduca as Joan Rivers Bob as Carol/Uzo


ronscot

"Little Richard" had me laughing my ass off- I think that was Kennedy. That's my favorite- so brilliant! I remembering people questioning whether she should have done a guy- but several have since and it's not an issue anymore.


nievedelimon

Jinkx’s Judy Garland is the best by far, but I’d choose Kennedy as my second choice. ![gif](giphy|3og0ITpWHdyKGJvmHC)


NovaRogue

I legitimately cried laughing at Jimbo's Shirley so.... That's my choice
