The logo for 'The Boulet Brothers' Dragula' Season 6.
Even in a reality TV landscape filled with exciting new twists on classic concepts, no show has ever been as subversive as The Boulet Brothers' Dragula. Created by the Boulet Brothers and streaming on Shudder, this Drag competition series was designed to push back against the"norms" of Drag culture perpetuated by other popular series like RuPaul's Drag Race.
While the increases in the show's budget were a welcome change, the way Dragula began to manufacture drama and feature heavy product placements made it appear more and more like the other programs it was created to rival. Viewers were nervous that Season 6 would just be more of the show losing its individuality. Well, the first episode of this newest installment did feature some of that, but also an ending that was pleasantly shocking.
'Dragula' Has Lost Luster by Becoming More Mainstream While it's been amazing to see more Drag-centric TV shows and movies come out, there's still never been a project like Dragula. This competition recruits Drag Monsters from all across the world, with each episode seeing them put together new looks and face challenges that all revolve around the series' core tenets of filth, horror, and glamour.
The beginning of Season 6's premiere had watchers thinking they were in for more of the same. While the performers were all exceptional as usual, the extremely blatant product placement only continued the series’ unsatisfying trend. It's easy to forget about the negative parts of the series when the cameras focus on the Queens, though, so it was still an enjoyable premiere.
‘Dragula’ Needs To Return to Its Roots Close It's not completely fair to call out Dragula for becoming more produced, as this is actually a sign of success for the show. Dragula went from being a YouTube series to one of Shudder's biggest projects; the huge increase in prize money and the series' ability to bring in performers from all over the world reflect what kind of resources this new mainstream appeal entails.
