Critics, per Wikipedia
Thrillist called Drag Race "the closest gay culture gets to a sports league". In 2019, The Guardian ranked it 93rd on its list of the 100 best TV shows of the 21st century. Shannon Keating for BuzzFeed News wrote about the show's "subversive, irreverent beginnings" briefly turning "comfortably mainstream... humdrum and derivative" prior to season 13's release. She recalls that a flurry of political disputes, as well as "overexposure", threatened to ruin Drag Race's legacy before the refreshed 2021 season.

I shotgunned so much Drag Race when I got the job, I knew most there was to know by the time my fingers hit the keyboard. The job isn't to be a fan. The job is to respect the source material and its audience.

I might argue that Republicans *didn't do that* decades ago, and that's how they got two Bushes, a McCain, and a Romney. It wasn't until they abandoned the "electable" moderate Republican and embraced their ideological id that they got to their political messiah. > The fact that trump has won 50% of his elections and looks to be 2/3 in a few months should make everyone reconsider the quality of candidates we’re running against him.

I am generally a harsher drag race season critic than many, but I think 16 might have been my favorite since , maybe 6 or 7? From early this year until recently we had 4 concurrent seasons of Drag Race to watch. UK vs The World season 2, Spanish All Stars, Belgium season 2, and this mainline season 16. All were a blast, and highly worth watching.

Modern Family has no place here, replace it with Star Trek Lower Decks. Add Mythbusters and Blood of Zeus and Arcane and Blue Eye Samurai and BNA. Move Community up too. Get The Office outta here, it sucks. And move The Office down a LOT. Oh, and we gotta add Invincible and The Boys. And ATLA! If we wanna go with artsy stuff that "mature" people like, add Primal. I didn't like it all that…
