Queen of the Universe

We loved this new formula with drag contestants having to sing rather than lip sync, there were some amazingly surprising voices with equally amazing costumes and wigs. Our only complaint was that it way way too short at only 6 episodes. Considering that Ru Pauls Drag Race is in excess of 20 .episodes, one gets time to get to know contestants. By episode 2 so many contestants had been eliminated that we hardly recognised any of them in the final. It is difficult to rate contestants on 1 episode alone. Looking forward to a Season 2 but longer please.

This was a totally fun series to watch! All of the talent and production of your regular singing competitions with some really great personalities. That yodeler from Canada made me PROUD! The judges panel is perfect. I didn't think I could love Trixie more than I already did. Can't wait for the next season.

Queen of the Universe is probably RuPaul's biggest failure since Drag U. Outside of having two Contenders who could sing being either eliminated or thrown by the way side, outside of it's $250,000 cash prize it never escapes the feeling that you've snuck into some high end karaoke night that makes a mockery of drag instead of empowers it.

If there is a Season 2, there should be some serious thought on the overall structure of the show and it's casting being treated as utterly disposable.

Edge of my seat binge-worthy television viewing. A singing competition of true talent with all the spangles any magpie or bowerbird could wish for. Heaven! Fabulous budget and all the colour and movement anyone could desire.

I look forward to Season 2 with glee.

They call it Queen of the Universe but then half of the cast is American. It's obvious from the get-go that the producers want an American queen to win and that they are gonna be favored in the competition. They really should have only had 1 queen from each country. There are many countries that have good drag singing acts that aren't represented at all.
