After 17 seasons , is n’t there a way for RuPaul ’s Drag Race to publicize on MTV and swarm live , or stream on Paramount+ the next day ?
If you ’re a currentRuPaul ’s Drag Racefan , you bed that usually the presently airing season ( be it on VH1 , Logo , or MTV ) is generally available somehow to watch online , either the next Clarence Day on streamer like Paramount+ or via the channel ’s site itself . However , for season 17 , MTV decided to mix it up in the worst manner : you have to check itvia hold out TV , either on cable length or get a cable’s length streaming subscription .
Due to right and ventilation issue , Drag Race(original flavor ) has never aired the current time of year on the cyclosis Robert William Service within the US , despite WOW Presents+ being home to all thingsRuPaul ’s Drag Race . I like all the outside versions , do n’t get me amiss , but not being able to stream the edition that ’s presently beam in the country you live in is frustrative ( though I absolutely love watching Canada’sDrag Raceweekly ) .
MTV , this seems like a perplexing mode to treat the incredibly loyal , if not fervid , lover al-Qaida you inherited for the Emmy - winning enfranchisement . Nobody is really sure why affair are go on this mode . hypothesis enjoin it ’s because they want to push subscription to Viacom - have springy cable’s length banner Philo .
Hot take : since switching to MTV statistical distribution for time of year 15 and on , the prize money has go away up , but the quality and availability have gone down . The franchise seems to lack the same charm as it did before and now it just feels like intemperately , shining plastic . There ’s more money thrown around , sure , make your old bag queens , but it ’s almost seemed to spoil some of the creativity that made the show extra special .
Nothing against the queen regnant , but it seems like the show is now about " how much money can you throw at this ? " instead of actually showing viewers challenges that show the faggot ’s accomplishment . Overall , it just find like the currentDrag Raceempire has become all gimmick and gloss and less about showcasing a image of pull talent , ingenuity , and stories .
RuPaul ’s Drag Raceis not a looker pageant , MTV , and it fosters such a sense of anticipation and community for fans and the LGBTQ+ community — by taking away wide access , it ’s taking a lot of that excitement and troth out . It ’s annoying that lover outside the US have more chance to stay current on US television shows than those of us who hold out in the rural area .
