01The take
Season 5.
Logo TV's last era of small-scale Drag Race, and the franchise at its sharpest as a contest. The cast had depth across design, comedy and performance, with Snatch Game landing some of the most-cited turns the format has produced. RuPaul Charles hosted alongside Michelle Visage, Santino Rice and a rotating fourth chair. The workroom dynamics ran hot. The runway categories pulled craft out of the lineup week after week without overproducing the result.
