At this point, I feel like it would be best if Drag Race went to a streaming platform and they just did one or two English seasons per year, instead of a million franchises (this is coming from a non-fan who works in reality tv). 

that's pretty much what is happening right now, they live on WOW+, the spinoffs don't deserve to be cancelled just because they're not in English

The book tour is part of the reasons, yes. But Drag Race Down Under being way smaller compared to any other anglophone franchise and this translating to a certain budget is a reason as well.

Also Rupaul shot/hosted on 6(!) franchises last year. She can‘t keep that up for who knows how long, so it‘s smart to test a transition like that on the smallest of Ru-led franchises. 

Drag race US, all stars, UK, Uk vtw, what are the other 2?

Global All Stars

Secret Celebrity Drag Race

And she did *host* Down Under Last year

I don’t mind. I love Michelle, and I know she will do a good job as a host. I would be more worried about the Down Under competitors… In previous seasons, there have been only a few interesting queens competing, and that’s not enough to make the show interesting.

Eventually, RuPaul will step aside from hosting other shows one by one, while continuing to host the US Drag Race and US All Stars.

I think she will drop UK after season 10

I'm sure she will continue to do the US seasons until she is 70, she LOVES to work

That depends.

I love Michelle, I can't wait to see the looks! I really wish they'd have a local host and for the UK too. I feel like the queens have to adapt to American judges and therefore lose a bit of their identity.

Why does everyone hate down under? I love it! The queens, the drama, some of the challenges. I’d love if they got a bigger budget though!

The only other one I can think of is Global All Stars. The six might be including DU?
