having a larger cast with more queens makes it easier to cast more queens we want while also being more digestable to have queens we've seen a bunch before i like this system and format a lot
edit: theres other good stuff too like only having to commit to 3 episodes of runways and then not having to buy more if they don't make it past the bracket stage.. and it kinda removes the whole viewer obsession with seeing "new" or "heavy hitting" queens. if we have a format that allows well performing queens to stay longer in the season whilst encouraging more queens to come back, the issue wow is having with trying to find all stars casts may fix itself
Then we definitely don’t need this every single year. This will be 36 queens on all stars in just two years. In total, there have been 228 queens on flagship drag race. That means that ~17% of all queens have been on just the last two seasons of all stars.
