Jennifer W I can only agree with "Audience Member" that the idea of the show with its international competitors was, indeed, promising, but the notion of the winning queen gaining the power to eliminate one of the other queens only made the show devolve into one revolving around the pettiness of schoolyard rivalries. I have loved the RuPaul franchise for its valuing of creativity, uniqueness, nerve, and talent, over the pettiness that alienates those who do not fit into the cliques. These versions of the franchise show us that talent and creativity wins out in the end. Not the case in UK vs the World, which revolves more around petty intrigues and jealousies. More like a cheap reality tv show than one about artistic talent. Very boring tv. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review Alex W Nobody asked for this. Seriously. It's just pandering to the lowest common denominator, and it doesn't even do that very well. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/05/23 Full Review sean g Best show on tv, this the best guests Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A disappointing start to an international franchise. UK vs The World sounds promising at first; international queens from various parts of the Drag Race franchise competing with one another in All Stars fashion, and whilst the queens were enjoyable as usual, the season suffers from a lot of the same problems Drag Race seasons suffer from - questionable judging, forced narratives and, something that the normal All Stars seasons veered away from for good reason, a competition format that encourages the queens to eliminate the best competitors, which only lessens the quality of the series.
