Season 15.
The largest premiere cast in franchise history, split across a two-part opening that reworks how the first stretch of the season unfolds. The first full MTV-era flagship year.
A rhythm worth tracking.
The season that split its opening in two. Season 15 brings the largest premiere cast the franchise has assembled and spreads it across a two-part premiere, reshaping how the first stretch of the competition plays out. RuPaul Charles and Michelle Visage anchor the panel for the first full MTV-era flagship year. The scale is the story — a huge lineup with broad range across drag styles. The premiere structure is the swing; the contest behind it runs solid and modern.
