Drag Race Italia

Maybe it's cultural. Maybe it's just not up to mark. But being it's first drag reality show, let it grow if it has mileage. One thing for sure, the pit crew is primo excellente. Girl, the pit crew here set the standard across boundaries.

Yes, the editing is rough, especially in the first few episodes; and the judges are stiff and unnaturally formal, in the same first few episodes; and the queens cast is quite uneven too.

But then the whole show slowly finds its own pace, or better starts moving towards it.

Priscilla, both in and out of drag, proves themselves to be a motherly/fatherly figure to the queens.

It takes a while, but the show eventually shows its identity, and it's good.

Wow I think this might be the first time ever I'm Unable to finish watching a drag race season. This is even worse than the Thailand franchise. Holland and Espana have been fantastic. The biggest issue with Italia is the editing. There is so much we don't need to see. It's a huge miss this one sadly.

So let's start with positives. They showcase a new culture of drag and LGBTQ+ community. We get to hear some italian music. They crowned the right queen. Now for negativas. This show needs an editor! Seriously waaaaay too long they could have had a few more queens ans episodes instead of dragging these 6 out so much. Very boring at times ans went no where.

Also the quality of the runways were a little basic and so were the categories. The judges waaaaay too many cooks in the kitchen. Made it extremely disorganised and hard to follow. Overall worst of the franchise so far.

This really reminds me of the old seasons of drag race. I find the season a bit messy yes, and the editing is a bit rough. But I do think that this show has real potential, it may seem nonsensical at times but it's the way Italian TV is made. Best to remember that it's always important for gay people to be on TV.

Can't wait to see the crowing.
