Huluween Dragstravaganza

So I was concerned at the start (especially after the imdb low-score) that this would be a complete cringe-fest but it's honestly hilarious with just the right amount of cheese.

I suppose, reading the reviews, most of the negativity is due to general dislike or disapproval of drag-queens, which is disappointing. However, the musical numbers were consistently catchy, the humour was light and fluffy, and even the guest singer's performance was both on-theme and on-point.

Don't write this off without giving it a try for yourself; it really was surprisingly good. Thought Lady Bunny and Monet were stand-out performers, but no one was weak in the slightest.

Seriously this was the worst thing I've ever seen and I LOVE DRAG RACE. Maybe seeing the cast made me set the bar too high.

Don't waste your time with this one. Just watch some old episodes of drag race and enjoy why these queens deserve so much better than a terrible Hulu special.

Hopefully they got a good sized check. Because this must have made them cringe while making it and when watching it back.

The jokes didn't land. The dialog was stiff. A couple of the songs were fine. There wasn't much chemistry. And I felt like most of it was lip synced. Even some of the dialog.

Like the last song said, Hulu, let's not do this again...

I went into it expecting it to be good and left thinking it was great! I had such a fun time watching it and i'm so excited for halloween now

It was campy, it was funny, sometimes the lyrics were a little bit raunchy or on the nose! Loved it! Everyone knows Halloween is christmas for drag queens! It when we get the most bookings!

I loved the casting choices, I loved hearing Monet and Ginger's vocal chops! So talented! The sets looked great! The filming looked great! Very fun!

I loved that they got some Drag Kings as well! And omg the outfits? I loved loved loved it and i would highly reccomend it to anyone above the age of 13 or so!

Look, I'm a huge drag fan as much as the next gay, but this special was just straight up baaaad. I didn't expect much, and was still somehow befuddled at how bad it was. The sketches were not funny, the songs were also not funny, and the most random assortment of queens/kings? I love all of these queens but why not get more queens known for comedy? I get that some of the queens included are known for singing, but even that wasn't enough to save this. I'm so glad to see drag content continuing to make bigger waves in mainstream media outside of Drag Race, but this was a flop by all standards. The only good part honestly was Kesha so 2 stars for that. I appreciate the attempt Hulu, but it's not giving.

The concept is extremely cheesy, but the dance numbers and the costumes were great! Don't come in here thinking it's going to be Masterpiece Theater or the Royal Shakespeare Company, 'cuz it ain't. Blatant product placements, eye-rolling dad jokes, and Hulu advertising throughout, but good for a mindless romp through some really slick drag and a lot of Halloween-centric comedy. It was nice to see some different drag performers that don't fit the cookie cutter idea of drag...Landon Cider and Mario Diaz bring in that drag monster element that is gaining a lot of momentum right now. Kudos to the participants for getting together to have a good time and their own expense!
