We're Here

I am an old (71), straight white guy. This show makes me wish I was a drag queen, but I am afraid that that ship sailed for me many years ago. I just can't dance (or walk) anymore. Alas. I don't know what I expected when I started watching "We're Here," but what I got is transformative (in more ways than gender identification). This show is about EMPOWERMENT! It is amazing to see how preforming in drag unleashes the power in people who have been repressed and suppressed by society. When common folk, too often looked down upon by the community for their sexual orientation, can unabashedly display a cross-gender identity and proudly expose the breadth and depth of their inner power, it becomes a joyous event for everyone! The language is raw and uncensored, but otherwise this is entertainment for the whole family. My wife and I feel empowered just watching this show. It also makes us hopeful, watching people overcome the bondage of gender-identity. If "regular people" can publicly eschew their gender issues by performing in drag, then we can each overcome anything! The three gorgeous gay souls who headline the show travel to a different town each episode, spreading the drag gospel to the unenlightened by introducing them to the world of drag. Some people are resistant to these "drag evangelists," but the townspeople who participate in or attend the drag show display a sense of excitement and joyousness similar to religious ecstasy. May the Drag-God bless all of these fabulous queens, and the rest of us too! Amen!

I think I've cried each episode. This show is all about loving yourself for who you are. Bob, Eureka, and Shangela are so good at helping each person transform and accept themselves for who they are. Plus their outfits are always amazing.

From beginning to end, this show shows you the struggle that people go through. However, the energy and confidence that the drag queens brings is contagious and it makes me want to be better, do better and love better! 10/10 recommend!

So far so good. Just one episode in and completely enjoyed the hour. The drag performers were familiar to me, and I was concerned this might be the usual fare or too contrived. It was neither. The stories were told in an authentic manner. I look forward to seeing the other episodes in the series.

Absolutely love this series. It's more than just about drag queens ....it's actually therapeutic. Mya seem silly to say but that's how I view it.
