Funny / Dragula

Season 1

• Although she's the first one out, Pinche sets a solid example with her extermination, responding to her burning at the stake with "Is this because I ate too much at craft services?" and going out with a "BALENCIAGAAAAAAAAA!"
• Loris' iconic Epic Fail in the first extermination challenge, giving a "No More Holding Back" Speech (fully stopping the challenge to do so, mind you) and then continuing to blow it.
• Foxie's elimination where she's continuing to count her money as she slowly freezes to death.

Season 2

• It's kind of funny to watch the contestants coming already wearing full faces of makeup and pretending they don't know what the challenge is going to be.
• Pretty much anything said by Diasterina
  • "YOU CAN'T FUCKING TOUCH ME BITCH! Stop shooting! Stop the shooting, I win!"
  • "You know the coke, it keeps me thin, and the booze, it gives me a personality."
  • "Attention human males, Disasterina is here to extract your ejaculate."
• As the Boulets journey down to their bunker where they keep the bodies of their murdered monsters, each gives some remarks on their downfall. When they get to Felony Dodger they just go "Who the fuck is this?"
• In the Scream Queens challenge, when the killer tries to choke Bitqh she goes "bro what the fuck?" in the deepest voice possible
• Vander saying that any time she sees a dead bird splattered on the side of the road she thinks "Abhora! :D!"
• The Wild West challenge happening outdoors in the So Cal summer, prompting Dracmorda to remind the contestants of their limits.
  Dracmorda: Just remember, if it gets to hot and are overheating, come to our trailer, there's air conditioning. Just knock on the window so we can see what a real pussy looks like before you die.

Season 3

• Dollya introducing herself "Speaking of pink holes! Hi, I'm Dollya Black!"
• "FUCK THE BIG PICTURE, CLINT!!"
• After receiving very little screen time and winding up on the bottom of the trash queens episode, Evah finally gets her I'm not going anywhere moment back stage when she goes "I'm Evah Destruction, for fuck's sake!" And then immediately becomes a Negated Moment of Awesome as Hollow Eve comes in and goes on a lengthy spiel directly behind Evah as the former looks beyond annoyed.
  • Evah in general has some pretty funny reactions even if she isn't saying anything. If someone's going on some kind of rant or tangent and Evah's on screen then she's usually going through a whole facial journey
• Disasterina returns to get to interview the monsters during the trash challenge leading to some highlights:
  • Evah's interview is entirely her going "Ummmm... Uhhh..."
  • Priscilla manages to out-weird Disasterina and deep throats the microphone before giving a satisfied shrug.
• Of all people it's guest judge then-fourteen year old Milly Shapiro that points out consistent blood splattering on a contestants outfit. Swanthula summarizes the astute observation with "You can find Milly on CSI this fall."
• "Why would someone with three dicks eat glass?"

Season 4

• Dear god, the Ghost Ship Cauldron. It starts with everybody fighting with no context until Dahli turns to the camera and says "The fuck is happening?" Leading to them giving the audience a How We Got Here via talking head.
  Dahli: So today's cauldron is just a big fucking hot mess. So, so far, we have Saint, completely upset about their critiques even though they're in the top.
  Camera cuts to Saint: "Well, you just missed the mark."
  Dahli: We have HoSo thinking this is complete bullshit.
  Camera cuts to HoSo: It's bullshit!
  Dahli: Nobody's congratulating Sigourney on her win.
  Camera cuts to Sigourney: Fuck, dude.
  Dahli: And whatever the fuck Jade and Zavaleta are doing.
  Camera cuts to Jade and Zavaleta sniping at each other in high-pitched voices.
  Dahli: Let's take a look at how this all started, shall we?
• Literally everything Koco said in the Reunion.
  • Koco's reaction to Merri calling her fake is to coolly go "I'll be that." And when Merri accuses her of talking under her breath, Koco adds "Oh, I thought you heard me."
• While deliberating, the Boulets take a moment to talk about how uncomfortable their head wear is and allow themselves a moment to be sad before going "That's enough!" and getting right back to judging.
• Dahli talking at length about being really into clowns. "I'm trying to get this pinata busted by Bozo"
• Zavaleta at one point says they're really good at seances and asks Dahli to hold out their hand, then to make a fist. Zavaleta takes one look at it and goes "It fits."
• After the Boulets announce the return of the Key of Life and Death, there's a mad rush to the Boudoir to try to find it, underscored by dramatic music and frantic sound bites from the ghouls. Cut to "10 minutes later", and they're still looking, with the music turning light and jaunty to drive home the ridiculous anticlimax. The humor is accentuated by the fact that they've all become slightly manic from the confusion. Zava, Saint, and Dahli have all started doing silly voices, Betty celebrates finding a spare piece of tape just because it's something, and HoSo provides some biting commentary:
  HoSo: It just hit me: maybe we're just dumb.
  • To make it even more hilarious, the Boulets revealed in their podcast that the ghouls searched for the key for over an hour.
• Merrie asking the rest of the cast to raise their hands if they feel like Signourney is playing mind games. La Zavaleta gleefully sticks her lone hand up for drama.
• "Well we put Betty first [in the haunted house] because she's been alive a lot longer so if she died, she's had a good run."
• Dahli doesn't wear wigs, so when they get a box full of wigs from a sponsor, Sigourney is determined to get a wig on their head. She tries multiple times to creep up on Dahli with a wig and Dahli at one point is staring her down like she's a creature so she doesn't approach.
• Evah Destruction gets a shout out this season... while the Boulets are listing off different hairy monsters.
• Hoso saying that the cauldron was getting too sweet and mushy and demanding Dahli fight someone.
  Dahli: God damn it. BY POPULAR REQUEST! [Begins screaming]
• Signourney wants to distress her tights. The quickest way to do that? Start rubbing them on the ground. Once it turned out to be effective she started offering to wipe down the other competitors tables with them.
• During the Clown Obstacle Course Extermination, several of the eliminated ghouls come Back from the Dead as "zombie clowns". One of which being Koco, who waves the race flags. At the end of the race, they proceed to vogue with the flags.

Titans

• After getting assigned teammates for the Halloween Party challenge, everyone breaks off to go practice but since many of them haven't seen each other in a while, most of the cast is just happily catching up. Then the camera pans over to Erika and Abhora awkwardly sitting in silence.
  • The next day the group agrees that they need to focus and get a lot done... and them immediately lose track of what they're supposed to be doing again.
• "I have a tattoo of Abhora on my ass as well. Big deal. Wish I could get rid of it."
• Kendra's famous line towards Yovska's entrance look.
  Kendra: It's giving me Teletubbies on a toilet bowl!
• Evah in a talking head in episode 4, talking about how being a 'trained thespian' is going to help their team. Cut to Hoso.
  Hoso: What the fuck is a thespian? A theater lesbian? I don't fucking know.
• While getting ready for the Sci-Fi floor show, the monsters notice how much extra tin foil Koco has and almost immediately the cast has dropped what they're doing to make tin foil hats, acting like they're couture fashions, and generally dancing around.
• During the spicy food fright feat, Erika and Abhora both made it to the most extreme level. Abhora is red faced, teary eyed, and has snot dripping out their nose and is still trying to act cool with "When is it gonna get spicy?"
• The editors making a Running Gag of Astrud going on long tangents, even at one point editing in the national anthem, as if she's giving some sort of powerful speech, while the other ghouls look on in disbelief.
  Koco: Ladies and gentlemen, this moment brought to you by Astrud.
• During the Dungeons and Dragons acting challenge, Melissa is constantly swaying as she stands to the point where the others in her group start to mimic her movements at times.
• The entirety of Koco trying to vote is a series of errors. First, their breastplate is so massive they have to maneuver them just to get close enough to the table. Then they immediately realize that their nails are way too long to use the fountain pen and try dip their nails in the ink as a makeshift pen but that barely works. Then the fact that they don't know how to spell Abhora and trying whispering to the crew for help. At some point the other monsters start getting really chatty offscreen prompting Koco to pause and demand silence so she can focus. When they do finally get their vote written all Koco can whisper is "This is disrespectful."
• Swanthula wondering if they give the first win to Astrud, would she get sent home the next episode like in season 4. Dracmorda's reaction? "Oh my god that'd be hilarious"
• How does Abhora reenter the competition? Not with some big announcement or shocking reveal but by walking into the room late with coffee and casually joining the rest of the group at the table.
• Melissa saying that Erika's decision to take away Abhora's wig was dumb and petty and should have been used on Victoria, but that she supports the decision because drama.
• Evah's once again giving very expressive reactions in the background of just about every scene she's in.
• The Revenge of the Witch challenge has the contestants coming out as all sorts of unsettling witches and then perform to Kelly's Shoes song.
• After being told that this week's challenge is the Dungeons & Dragons challenge, Melissa comments in the talking head that this is something Astrud would be into. Cut to Astrud going "I LOVE D&D!" and then proceeds to go on a long tangent about everything great about the game, spliced together with her explaining to everyone how D&D works (clearly trying to go quickly but is still talking for ages judging by everyone's reactions) before finally Melissa tells Astrud to shut up. The whole thing ends in confessional with Astrud going "And that is why I love D&D!"
• The wrestling challenge cauldron has Astrud go on a long tangent again but the camera is entirely focused on Koco, who has dropped her straw and is struggling to pick it up with her long nails. When she finally does get her straw back Koco immediately spills the drink all over herself.
• "I'm glad you're gay and you're both just.... expressing it."
• After looking at the match ups, Evah points out that Melissa and Astrud are squabbling, Koco wants revenge on Victoria for winning Zombie Prom, and then turns to Hoso to ask what they have to fuel their fight. Hoso thinks about it and goes "Mutual respect for one another?"
• During the Wrestling episode, Melissa and Astrud are interested in being matched up together. Astrud because they think that getting to pretend pummel each other will help them work through their beef with each other and bring them closer. Melissa because she just wants to throw down. The entire episode the rest of the competitors are practically treating this match up like it's Melissa coming to beat up Astrud after school.
  Koco: Astrud is a psychopath because nobody in their right mind would want to just fight Melissa. This is why drag queens are not paid to think, that's dumb.
  Hoso: The only thing I see happening is Melissa destroying Astrud.
  Astrud: Oh no, I lost, she beat me! We're not surprised!
• After Koco wins the arm wrestling fright feat, Hoso figures that Koco will be very fair about assigning the teams. Cut to Koco going "I'm going to stack the teams unfairly. That's my strategy"
• Evah once again calls herself a thespian and the camera pans over to Hoso and replays the audio of their "What the fuck is a thespian? Theater lesbian?" talking head. If you turn on captions it reads [Hoso's Internal Monologue]
• Everyone, namely the Boulets, insistently referring to Astrud's Sea Monster look as a squid that's a gentleman
• The Sea Monster of the Depths episode sees Dahli, Astrud's drag father, on the judging panel.
  Astrud: Hi, Daddy!
  Dahli: Hiiiii.
  Swanthula: Read her.
• Things get VERY heated in Episode 7's cauldron, with everyone getting into an argument with someone else. Except for Hoso, who stays out of it and is basically eating popcorn through the entire thing.
  Hoso: The sound bites are popping today
• Episode 8's fright feat was a lie detector test that would shock them every time they lied. Naturally there were a lot of funny questions, added by the fact that the polygraph examiner had no idea what half these questions were about.
  • (To Evah) Were you trying to take Abhora's place as Hoso's third new boyfriend?
  • (To Hoso) Would you dress up like a lizard in the bedroom for Astrud?
  • (To Victoria) Did you put... some tiddies on, bitch?
  • (To Koco) Are your titties full of secrets?
• Astrud and Hoso both saying that knowing that the remaining five collectively doesn't trust each other has made them trust each other more. Cut to Koco "Did you not hear that I don't trust you? Make it make sense."
• "It's a new day. I still don't trust anyone and I'm still a bitch."
• Koco decides that they should all do trust falls starting with them catching Astrud. Astrud comes over, sticks their arms up which prompts Koco to quietly ask if Astrud put on deodorant yet. Astrud goes "Nope!" and falls backwards before Koco was ready.
  • They have the bright idea that the noodley Hoso should be the one to catch beefy armed Evah. The other competitors are gleefully watching, expecting Evah to hit the ground.
  Evah: If this bitch drops me... I'm going to haunt her forever.
• Victoria going "Maybe you trust each other, BUT I SURE DON'T!" and pulls out a knife and runs at Astrud.
  Hoso, quietly: Where did she get a knife?
  • The camera switches to black and white as Victoria kills the rest of the competition to casually lighten the mood. The others congrautate her for the best acting they've seen from her yet.

Season 5

• After meeting Blackberri, Throb Zombie says he's excited to compete with Blackberri, who's a great presence "in Austin." A chryon immediately pops up that says "NOTE: Blackberri is from Houston."
• During deliberation, Swan reads Satanna's look as not matching the assignment, referencing Merrie Cherry's look from Season 4 by saying, "It's a Nosferatu Beach Party and you show up looking like an anglerfish." Drac loses it.
• The second Fright Feat of the season gives the winner the ability to inflict a hideous curse on another contestant: The Curse of the Teletubby Toilet Bowl.
  • Jay Kay wins the Fright Feat and hits Cynthia Doll with it, forcing her to prepare for the floor show in a used Port-a-Potty. As Cynthia does her makeup and tries to avoid the mess, Blackberri pays her a visit to give her a pep talk... but takes off at a crucial moment.
  Cynthia: Can you at least pass me a makeup sponge? Blackberri? BLACKBERRIIIIII!
• After Orkgotik makes their way back from an extermination, he trades a kiss with Niohuru. As the rest of the ghouls cheer, romantic music plays, and the two talk in confessionals - even spliced together for added effect - about their burgeoning relationship. Cue a hard cut, complete with muted record needle scratch, to Jay Kay's confessional.
  We're not doing romance storylines this year.
• The first phase of this season's Monsters of Rock challenge involves judging the cast on their Floor Show performances, which will result in one being exterminated right at the end of it. As the Boulets are without guest judges for this portion, they introduce... each other, with the aid of gratuitous jump cuts.
• At the end of the first phase of the Monsters of Rock challenge, Jay Kay and Jarvis Hammer are up for extermination... which will take the form of a lip sync battle, to commence immediately. That's right: Finally, on Dragula, contestants are lip-syncing for their lives.
• Niohuru X doesn't really know how to present masculine for her Ultraviolet Umbras look, so she asks Throb Zombie for help. Their explanation is genuinely helpful advice, but it involves telling Nio to use "the Dorito technique" to fix how she holds her body and shouting and grunting with her about going to a strip club to hype her up into that mindset. Throb's "training session" is clearly audible to the rest of the monsters who are still getting dressed.
  Throb: Put the titties aside, because we're all Dorito today!
• One of the judges for Ultraviolet Umbras is none other than Victoria Elizabeth Black. What is her response to the Boulets introducing her?
  Victoria: ...Line?^note In reference to the acting challenge of Titans where she constantly forgot her lines.
• Fantasia has a confessional moment, complete with shadowy appearance and voice modification like it's Inside Edition, and says, "I would like to remain anonymous for my protection, but Throb, I am gonna kick your ass so hard, I am gonna take you out, or my name isn't Fantasia. Royale. Gaga." She swiftly realizes she has broken the idea of "anonymous" and breaks down laughing.
• For the "Drag Kaiju" challenge, Niohuru X has a serpentine look with a massive, articulated tail... that prevents movement in her lower body. After the Boulets call this out during their own deliberation, it becomes nakedly apparent when everyone's filing out for the critiques, and only Blackberri and Fantasia take the stage at first (Dracmorda: "Everyone else... is dead"). Cue Throb having to help Niohuru onto the stage like it's the wheelbarrow race in an elementary school's field day.
  • The Boulets critique Niohuru for having a look that required her to be carried by reminding her that self-sufficiency is very important to them and they don't appreciate looks that require so much outside assistance. They then turn to Throb and (jokingly) critique him for carrying Niohuru to stage because they don't appreciate Throb helping others.
