"RuPaul's Drag Race" is a reality show in which a group of talented drag queens compete in challenges to impress host RuPaul, the world's most famous drag queen, to win a cash prize along with a crown and the title of America's Next Drag Superstar. Each episode consists of a main challenge, usually some form of performance or fashion design -- sometimes both. The queens then participate in a themed runway show, where one is declared the winner of that week, while two others are announced to be up for elimination. The bottom two must then compete to stay on the show with a lip-sync for their lives.

Kate Kulzick AV Club Can this cast deliver at the drop of a hat? The queens are forced to hit the ground running, making for an undoubtedly stressful, but exciting start to the season. Rated: A- Jan 5, 2021 Full Review Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez Tom & Lorenzo We can understand why some fans might not love how dragged out this opening format is, but we can't say we weren't entertained. These queens feel like they have some potential. Feb 9, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Barilla T The season had potential but the very very noticeable rigging of the season ruined what could've been a great one Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/12/24 Full Review Garrett H Better than the previous season, but still a low point for the show. First few episodes are painful to watch due to horrible format. Outside of several runways (from Gottmik), Denali's lip sync, and a couple acting challenges, there aren't any memorable moments from this season. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/08/23 Full Review Veruca S Like Season 12, this season was too political at times. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/16/23 Full Review Anny V Horrible Horrible Horrible.... i was shocked and I thought this is the end for the drag race. I stopped watching for 2 years lots of my friends totally lost interest. But thank goodness season 14 was life saving. Ru do mot ever ever do this again. And qeen like Kandy Muse is to be forbidden 🚫 Horrible season. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Aidan L Why is this on cable tv. Can't believe this is on MTV, im no long watching this channel. Utterly disgusting this is being pushed Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/22/23 Full Review Audience Member The worst season ever. It's so boring for a lot of things: the dynamic between the winner group and the loosers, the kandy drama, unfair judgement. Pure garbage Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
