'Singled Out' Episode 5: Taylor Trash came looking for love, only to find it in her roommate's best friend
'Singled Out' is dropping episodes like hotcakes every day keeping viewers entertained through this period of social distancing and quarantining. 'Singled Out' released Episode 5 featuring our very first drag queen in the series.
In a time where we're stuck indoors with nothing much to do, Quibi has us entertained with its slew of new releases and reboots. One among them is 'Singled Out', the MTV series reboot of the same name that aired from 1995 to 1998.
Even though the OG series consisted of one main dater and a pool of 50 contestants vying for a date, the reboot series consists of only 30 contestants, but that's alright because the series still manages to stand out and entertain viewers.
The best part about the reboot is that there is no gender bias. The series hooks up singles of every gender and sexual preference, and the queer representation is loved by fans all over.
In the first two episodes, we already witnessed a bisexual woman named Tracy who was ready to date and Ian, who is looking for his dream guy. Now back again for Episode 5, we witnessed the first drag queen appearance in this series.
Taylor Trash entered the speed dating show looking for her sugar daddy to spoil her ride. Taylor describes herself as the milf of the trailer park. But underneath her drag persona is a small town country boy named Andrew.
And if Taylor's dates want the best of Andrew, they first got to put up with Taylor herself. This episode will have you smiling from start to finish, just because of Taylor's witty remarks and high energy that matches with co-host Keke Palmer.
For her dealbreakers, Taylor revealed that she is trying to move out of the trailer park and into the Hamptons, so her potential daters who shop at the flea market got an early exit. Coming from a small town, Taylor revealed she would much prefer someone who would come with her to the county fair rather than someone who would hit the bars. This left her with the final three potential daters.
While the remaining three potential daters slid into her DMs with their cheesiest pickup lines, there were only two that impressed her the most. One amongst who was another drag queen herself. In the end, Taylor decided to go with the drag queen who happened to be Taylor's roommate's best friend, Vix.
Though the series seems a little scripted at first with just three potential daters remaining at the end of the first round, the ending always brings a smile on our faces.
Especially today's episode where Taylor found her boo who happened to be right in front of her all this time. To see the series give such importance to the LGBTQ community unlike most other reality TV dating shows we've seen is another added factor as to why 'Singled Out' is loved by fans even though the episodes are bite-sized.
