Finale of “It’s Showtime. Drag Me Out”
The finale of the first edition of the program and the jury’s verdict sparked a heated discussion among Internet users. Attention was paid not only to the amount of work done by the winners, but also to how they changed from episode to episode. “I’ve been keeping my fingers crossed for you from the beginning! The greatest progress, the greatest contrast between Marcin’s posture and Drag’s styling! (…) It’s great that Poland can see such a contrasting guy who is having a great time! Bravo!” – says one of the comments.
“Bravo! I’ve been keeping my fingers crossed for you from the beginning! Talent, work, distance, modesty! Congratulations! And the floral styling in one of the episodes was divine,” wrote another Internet user. There were also entries such as “Deserved victory. There was fire” or “Fully deserved victory, even though the competition also gave their all.”

The jury’s verdict also divided the viewers, and some Internet users saw other participants as the winners. “Gąsiu and Michał definitely deserved to win more,” said one of them. “They weren’t bad, but they were definitely disqualified by Łopucki’s completely asynchronous lip movements. It was impossible to watch, and it was probably the worst in the final,” said another.
