As a person living in Australia, I was looking forward to Drag Race Down Under. What I saw was a cheap production, with many drag queens who have had a racist past. If I was Rupaul I wouldn't bother with another season of Drag Race Down Under. If you are looking to watch an "international" version of Drag Race I would suggest checking out the UK version.
If this was "Australia's Top Drag" I would give it 8. The queens are talented. They could probably show their talent. But since it's RuPaul, it's a 4.
He doesn't care. It's obvious. The top 3 is chosen before the show starts, like in other spin-offs usually. There's nothing the others can do. There can be "this is the best you've done so far" followed immediately by "you're up for elimination." There can be "this was definitely worst you've done" and it gets "you're safe" because they chose them to the top three.
He just barely is there, fake laughing and pretending to be nice. It doesn't work.
If he let it go, like Thailand, it might be good. But greedy is as greedy does.

Not really sure on this one yet, so far its just been leaving a bad taste with me after watching. Something about it seems rather bitter, think it might be both the queens and also the judging. Don't really get that excited feeling to watch it like I do with the other versions of drag race.
This is the worst version of drag race despite Aus and NZ being excellent places for talent. The show is overproduced to a point where it is not enjoyable to watch, it's clearly rigged, and leaves you dying for some good producing.
I can't recommend it, especially how clear it is that Ru is clueless about NZ culture and is only taking advantage of their COVID-free status.

I can't believe what I witness in the hidden talent episode ... it's all scripted and planned.
