Starta dina motorer, för det är dags för Drag Race Sverige – AKA, Drag Race Sweden!
The first episode of Drag Race Sverige is available NOW to watch internationally on WOW Presents Plus (although word is that future episodes will arrive slightly later in the day at Saturday 8pm US ET).
I’m extremely curious to recap this season, as it will be my first time recapping a season that will be entirely in a language I don’t speak or comprehend. (Much to my surprise, a lot of Drag Race Philippines was conducted in English.)
Plus, all things Sweden are a complete blind-spot for me beyond the obvious (and obviously tired )IKEA jokes, so I’ll be coming to this season with fresh eyes and a lot to turn about Sweden and it’s queer culture. Add to that the fact that we didn’t get any “Meet the Queens” interviews with this cast, and I’ve never gone into a season of Drag Race with less knowledge than I am with Sverige!
My coverage of Drag Race Sweden will debut mid-week with my Power Ranking for Episode 1. Until then, you can read my Pre-Season Power Ranking. And, if you don’t have Wow Presents Plus, you can watch all of the Sverige queens enter the workroom for free on YouTube!
Ses nästa tisdag!
(I don’t get an affiliate bonus from referring you to WOW+, but as a major fan of drag and Drag Race it’s probably my most-used media subscription. At a pricey $8.30 a month I know it’s competing for your budget against things like Netflix, Disney+, Paramount+, and more. All the more reason to keep up with my recap and power rankings, and then subscribe for just a month or two to binge all the parts that sounded interesting to you!)
