Read the article and have no idea exactly how the game is played. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:EF05:F000:8426:506C:7E98:6F9F ( talk) 11:52, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
I don't know who's responsible for maintaining this page, but I just happened upon a truly delightful episode of this show (which I'd never really known about until tonight) staring Will Farrell, Fallon and another guy whom I unfortunately don't know. And yet there is no mention of Farrell on this page. Perhaps it's the most recent episode? LMorland ( talk) 07:02, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
What is a 'color commentator'?????? -- Cameron Scott ( talk) 15:33, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
It's a term that's mostly used in a sports setting. See Color_commentator. For example, of the famous "Kruk and Kype" duo who call (usually the TV side of) the San Francisco Giants games, only Duane Kuiper actually "calls" the games... meaning he has the responsibility of reporting all the facts (who's up, who's on base, the count, the number of outs, etc.). Mike Krukow gets to say whatever comes to mind about the game in progress... which, as a former pitcher, often involves very precise analysis of the pitching performance, but he has plenty of other insights as well. And he is often hilarious!
So in that duo, Krukow is the "color commentator." LMorland ( talk) 06:55, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
I made [1]this edit, but it was reverted [2]. I call WP:COMMONNAME on my edit, and feel that the reversion with no explaination given was done in bad faith. What are others thoughts on this? 65.24.44.45 ( talk) 15:38, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
Was going to add the Christmas special to the list of episodes but wasnt sure whether it should be season 1 or 2, or get its own section for special episodes. Joseph Gordon-Levitt vs Anthony Mackie - aired 19 November 2015. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.218.112.161 ( talk) 09:16, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Reading this article, I'm rather shocked there isn't any mention of RuPaul's reaction to the show or "RuPaul's Drag Race." The controversy being that "Lip Sync Battle" lifted its premise from the Lip-sync for Your Life closing portion of every episode of "Drag Race." As well as the broader idea of straight culture (Lip Sync Battle/Jimmy Fallon) lifting ideas from gay culture (RuPaul & Drag Race) throughout history, this just being one example. RuPaul has spoken about "Lip Sync Battle" and Jimmy Fallon taking the idea from "RuPaul's Drag Race" in multiple print interviews, even calling it a "poor ripoff," [1] and just last week on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen." [2] Other famous drag queens agree. [3] But it's not just drag queens, think pieces by popular publications have even tackled this topic. [4] A section focusing on this backlash should definitely be added by a Wikipedia author who knows how to properly do so. Thank you 216.17.44.216 ( talk) 21:53, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
