	Author	Review
United States	Daniel D'Addario Variety	"[It] has little to recommend it other than Ru himself, bringing to bear the star’s charisma on a tonally uneven, shaky story and trusting that glamour will carry the day. Even RuPaul has his limitations."	NEG
United States	Robyn Bahr The Hollywood Reporter	"Wobbly but charming (...) The narrative gradually evolves into a sensitive exploration of created families, a vital theme in the lives of many people in the LGBTQ community."	POS
United Kingdom	Rebecca Nicholson The Guardian	"[It] might have been a lovely film, sweet and snappy and just on the right side of unique, but at 10 episodes, the premise grows strained and the pace is all over the place (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	David Opie Digital Spy	"Charisma, uniqueness and nerve are all present and accounted for, but at times, a lack of talent in some key areas makes the show feel more like a Roxxxy Andrews verse than a winner (baby)."	NEU
United States	Liz Shannon Miller AV Club	"There are so many freewheeling touches over the course of the season that keep the fun alive (...) It does strike the necessary balance between grounded reality and lighter fare"	POS
United States	Kathryn VanArendonk Vulture	"It’s bad in a variety of equally painful ways. It looks and feels chintzy. Its politics are loud, proud, and as simplistic as a child’s My First Read-Aloud book"	NEG
United States	Alison Foreman Mashable	"[It] paints an intimate portrait of a legend (...) A sparkly blend of emotion, humor, and spectacle"	POS
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"[It] has the potential to be a sweet and funny buddy comedy, which might not be much of a surprise coming from RuPaul, but we had no idea that King was capable of such a show."	POS
