01The take
Season 6.
The split-premiere season — two workroom intros, two cast halves, one merge before the format settled. The lineup ran deep on identity and craft, with queens whose individual aesthetics were already fully formed walking in. Snatch Game and the Shakespeare challenge produced some of the franchise's most-replayed runway moments. RuPaul Charles hosted with Michelle Visage and a rotating fourth chair. The season's cultural footprint stretched well past its Logo airing into the seasons that followed.
