RuPaul's Drag Race season 9

Glad it was a success and we are getting more of it!!!

I doubt AS3 will be this fall. Their post production and promotional shoots, tours, etc. push the shooting and premier by at least 7-9 months every single year. There's no way VH1 will not milk the show for it's worth, which means drumming up the excitement and anticipation as much as possible.

I think S10 might instead get moved to a late-summer or fall 2018 timeline. Nothing major used to play during summer, but it's definitely a trend started by House of Cards and Game Of Thrones and I'm sure VH1 would want some original programming which will have a sureshot audience. 

As for the AS3 cast rumors - yep, that's going to be fun. I'm already torn between Team Trixie and Team DeLa. Some folks are also saying they might some AS1 queens back (Yarlexis and Manilla Luzon have done cancellations apparently), as well as Shangela - who's another very strongly rumored queen.

Honestly, that's a prety good line-up. I've also heard Aja, Derrick Barry, and Shangela. The other great thing? If they don't make AS3, there's always the chance of AS4! I could see S10 in spring again and AS2 in fall 2018 or in summer right after S10.

I am having back surgery this week and I am hoping to binge watch this season.  Anyone know what on demand platforms it might be available in?  And do they still do the after show?

[Valentina3]

Amazon Prime Video/iTunes has the entire season. I typically buy every season in case I miss an episode or two because of other commitments on the night of showing (and can't make it to my fav gay bar), and also to binge watch it after a couple months. By "aftershow" I'm guessing you mean "Unplugged" - these are available for free on YouTube on WOWs channel. I think they might even have a playlist to group them together better.

Thank you so much.  I really appreciate the information.  And yes .  I meant Unplugged.

Trixie's done very well for herself- second probably only to Katya for most visible queen from her season. And she's definitely refined herself a lot.

But boy would I be happy to see Dela back.

Also K know they may not have the following, but I'd love to see Jessica Wild and Mariah Balenciaga come back!

And by Unplugged, both of you mean Untucked.

There is a VERY strong likelihood that Mariah will be back.

[Valentina3]

hahah. Damn you, autocorrect. :)

"There is a VERY strong likelihood that Mariah will be back."

YAS! She's been really making the rounds this year: the S9 finale, Hey Qween, the Billboard roundtables. Ongina and Morgan have also really been stepping it up in terms of publicity, and Tatianna had a similar resurgence last year before AS2. Makes sense.
