01The take

Season 10.

02The shape of the season

A rhythm worth tracking.

The season the VH1 jump fully pays off. Season 10 is built start to finish at the new scale, with a production confidence the network's first year only reached for. The cast runs deep on personality and the runway hits the franchise's highest budget yet, without the spectacle swallowing the contest. RuPaul Charles and Michelle Visage anchor a panel over a warm, quotable workroom. The VH1 era arrives at full altitude: bigger, sharper, still the same show underneath.

03Where it sits in the canon

The #04 slot.

Slot #04 of 17 in the RuPaul's Drag Race Editor's Canon. The seasons on either side show what I ranked it against.
