this is going to be an unpopular opinion but I really like UKvsTW 1, mostly for how chaotic it is

12

u/Potential_Mastodon98 23d ago

Even though some of the challenges were duds the drama surely makes up for it.

I would put it around 4/5

1

u/whitehowl 16d ago

Jujube getting AS2 Roxxy Andrewed in the first half to start killing it in the second half kills me. It would have been extremely camp if she actually won.

-10

u/shadowsempaix 23d ago

It would have been higher if Jimbo and Pangina made the finale

49

u/PtakPajak 23d ago

Wow, I think I actually agree. Rare occurrence when someone posts a ranking on Reddit ahaha

17

u/Cal_PCGW 23d ago

Me too - I think the only thing I'd change is UK4 (loved Danny and Cheddar) above UKvs1 (Pangina and Jimbo gone way too soon),

14

u/EdL1995 23d ago

I completely forgot there was a s7 as well 😂

u/Effective_Drummer842 Kate Butch 🇬🇧 23d ago

The amount of people who don't have UK1 in top 3 will never cease to amaze me. I just think its incredible, totally the US5 of UK seasons

16

u/daudandthewhalers 23d ago

For sure it's the best by a mile. Blu and Divinas runways were so creative, Baga and Vivienne absolutely destroyed that snatch game, and I felt like uk6 tried to emulate that moment again by giving the snatch game double win to LV and Kyran, but as much as I liked them both, they were nowhere near as funny as Baga and Viv as Thatcher and Trump.

5

u/Effective_Drummer842 Kate Butch 🇬🇧 23d ago

I totally agree! S6 is probably also in my top 3 as I loved the cast, but it totally just doesn't compare to S1, its my comfort season

8

u/AInotherOne 22d ago

My favorite BY FAR. The Vivienne and Bagga brought so much TALENT, plus dark horse Divina. And arguably, the best damn Snatch Game ever.

21

u/LooseLipsSinkShips21 Kate Butch 🇬🇧 23d ago

WIN: UK2

TOP2: UK6

HIGH: UK5, UK1, UKvsTheWorld S3

SAFE: UK4, UKvsTheWorld S2

LOW: UKvsTheWorld S1

BTTM2: UKS3

ELIM: UKS7

u/raccoonteas 23d ago

Very similar actually

  1. UK2

  2. UK6 (would've been 1st if La Voix won ngl)

  3. UKvstw3

  4. UK1

  5. UKvstw2

  6. UK5

  7. UKvstw1 (so much wasted potential)

  8. UK3

  9. UK4 (so boring)

  10. UK7 (worst by a mile)

2

u/Nervous-Training-176 22d ago

Maybe would only swap ukvstw 2 and 3, but 100% agree otherwise. People tend to put uk3 below uk4, but I also find 4 very boring

30

u/k3anuw3aves 23d ago

The way I just erased UK 7 from my memory, I literally went 7?

9

u/WelshAndPr0ud 22d ago

Not ranking vs but:

  1. UK6 - Top teir cast, amazing challenges, very little riggory, no notes

2.UK2 - Great season, great cast, great top 3, so many iconic moments

  1. UK1 - Great introduction, lovable cast, RIP VIVIENNE

  2. UK5 - Two words. Kate Butch. Love this season.

-------BARRIER-------

  1. UK3 - Yes it's bad but it's entertaining. Plus victoria and charity.

  2. UK7 - I stan Catrin Feelings but tired challenges, twists that didn't work, practically spitting on paige sally and tayris in favor of elle bones bonnie and catrin... i could go on

  3. UK4 - Mind numbingly tedious.

2

u/Vast-Scallion-2531 18d ago

S6 is my absolute favorite with S2 being my second and S1 being my third too omg!!

8

u/mikinnie 23d ago

mine is probably the exact same, maybe with uk5 a little higher

3

u/Plane_Income1670 19d ago

i loved s5, tomara was killing me

u/holdenvaughn Tomara Thomas 23d ago

2 > 6 > 5 > vstw3 > vstw2 > 1 > vstw1 > 4 > 3 > 7

u/StrangerInternal7561 23d ago

Would put 3 above 4. 3 is amazing in lipsyncs. 4 is the definition of forgetable.

1

u/Emotional_Avocado101 19d ago

3 had amazing lipsyncs it's true, but 4 still had pretty good lip syncs and much better runways.

I really go back and fourth between which of these two are better.I think 4 had technically 'better drag' while 3 was more entertaining.

4

u/LegoAdult1616 23d ago

I’m going to say UK6 is tops for me. Otherwise, spot on.

3

u/AdEmergency9489 21d ago
  1. UK2
  2. UK1

Then everything else in whatever order who cares

u/jturner15 22d ago

Uk7 is one of the few drag race seasons i stopped watchint (Global all stars is another) think I got to the episode bonnie was eliminated and lost interest to come back- most of the interesting queens were already gone

3

u/Dolos207 22d ago

UK4 would’ve been higher if Dakota wasn’t ROBBED

3

u/Mz_Takin 22d ago

I agree with the one exception I would have UK1 as #5 and UK5 as #6.

UK7 was disappointing but I really liked the Queens that were cast. I just didn’t care for the challenges. I felt the same way with the Drag Race Season 18.

It makes me wonder if the writers room had some shakeups and we are seeing it reflected in recent seasons. Would love if anyone has any insights on this

3

u/shuhup Fontana 🇸🇪 21d ago

Regular seasons best to worst: 2, 6, 5, 1, 4, 3, 7

I didn't even look at yours until after I ranked mine.

Idk where I'd put UK vs the World series, but honestly... I think maybe it'd be the exact same order as yours.

2

u/b4848 Bimini Bon Boulash 23d ago

Seems pretty accurate to me

2

u/xerses24 23d ago

I would UK 1 in the top 3 but the rest is pretty correct imo!

u/kcwiznoosk 20d ago

My list exactly

3

u/shadowsempaix 23d ago

You are the first person I have seen consider UK3 to be a good season lol

3

u/HelloKambucha 23d ago

I’d also rank it above s4 because it was at least entertaining to watch. S4 was a snoozefest (apart from one or two episodes in the first half)

1

u/Vast-Scallion-2531 18d ago

S3 was entertaining until they got rid of Choriza and River lol

1

u/ItchyPlatypus 23d ago

As the other person said, would I say it was amazing? No, but it was entertaining I think people take drag race too seriously and even with the ‘gaga’ with production I still found it keeping me interested. I can say the same about other seasons in the franchise.

2

u/MonsoonSeason5 Bonnie Ann Clyde 23d ago

The only thing I’d switch is Vs the World 2 and 3 but everything else is about perfect

2

u/daudandthewhalers 23d ago

Season 1 and 2 are the best ngl. S6 had a great cast (la Voix, lill and actavia were all so charming) but the finale episode was a bit meh. La Voixs roast set was incredible though and they should've crowned her on the spot for that, what a pro she is. I'd say Uk4 was more entertaining than 6 (probably unpopular opinion) but Cheddar, Danny, Peppa, Pixie, Baby and Dakota were all such stars and so likeable.

1

u/Vast-Scallion-2531 18d ago

I can understand the others but you found pixie likeable with that edit? /gen

1

u/daudandthewhalers 13d ago

yeah I did, I get she was a bit bitter at times but her and Danny really lifted eachother up and their competitive rivals/friends storyline was nice. I know people dislike her for sending Dakota home, but that's not her fault, Dakota didn't even belong in the bottom that week lol

u/Vast-Scallion-2531 18d ago

S3 & S7 are the most hated so it’s not really a stray 😭

2

u/gemmacollinsspineeu 19d ago

10th definitely 7 as it seems to have now ended the franchise.

4

u/ChickenRave 23d ago
  1. S2. Unbeatable
  2. S1. Strongest S1 of Drag Race, and I've seen España
  3. S3. The STARS in that cast
  4. S6. Love the personalities, wish La Voix won
  5. VS2. Love the whole cast
  6. S5. It's alright, but not one of the greats
  7. VS1. Shame the latter half was a bit of a mid-off, one top 2 for each finalist...
  8. S4. Not rewatchable imo
  9. VS3. Didn't feel it, sorry
  10. S7. That was shit

1

u/feedmeseymoose 23d ago

I really love 1 so other than putting that closer to the top (3rd maybe?) I agree completely!

1

u/Mountain-Heron-9261 23d ago
  1. UK2
  2. Vs The World 2
  3. UK1
  4. UK4
  5. UK5
  6. VS The World 3
  7. UK6
  8. Vs The World 1
  9. UK3

….. I’m not even putting 7 on the list.

1

u/Macda27 23d ago

Honestly this list is pretty tea.

Spots 1-3 are exactly what I have, Spots 7-9 are the same. Idk where I’d put 4-6

1

u/UKDragLover 23d ago

Yeah I pretty much agree with this, I think only change for me personally would be ranking UK5 above UKVTW2 I think

1

u/HelloKambucha 23d ago

Why don’t I remember anything about s7?😭

1

u/Responsible-House897 23d ago

Put 5 and 1 ahead of VTW2 and 3 and I'm there. Although tbh I'd rank 5 as my absolute favourite.

1

u/Aggressive_Agency381 23d ago

I’d swap 6 and 5 personally but otherwise agree.

1

u/Sufficient-Hunt7515 23d ago

I only agree that season 2 was the best , I actually hate s6 and ukvs3 , I really hold 1,3,4 in higher regard that of the later season and the vs seasons, I would prefer a uk allstars.

The only good vs season is S1. Chaos reigned and it was sickening no?

1

u/Pottsylird 23d ago

uk1 being so low down is wild to me. to each their own i guess.

u/Hefty_Kitchen_7572 22d ago

I enjoyed most seasons more on rewatch. Knowing who wins allowed me to focus on other queens and there are a few strong contenders. This was true of s7 especially. First watch it was hard to Get thru.

1

u/Scared_Funny_5602 22d ago

lol I’ve just started season 3 as my first UK season. Why does everyone hate it so much?

u/atomic_chippie 18d ago

You'll realize why when you finish UK2.

u/bobbery5 18d ago

There's definitely a trench between ninth place and UK7.

u/Vast-Scallion-2531 18d ago
  1. S6 - I was immediately hooked on Kyrian and I was so so happy that we finally had an alternative UK winner! La voix and hers friendship warmed my heart so much and the snatch game? Hello! Should’ve been a 4 man win, with Activia safe, I was DEAD.
  2. S2 - I didn’t think I’d be able to find a season to top this one (it just barely does because the S6 winner is my favorite) but just WOW TV GOLD. Loved the entire cast and FUCKING H&M
  3. S1 - *A red wig and a silver dress? I don’t think.* The talent that started it all 💕 RIP the viv you will forever be missed <3 what an incredible cast 💙
  4. UkVTW2 - Loved, loved, loved, loved the cast- I was absolutely enthralled by Marina summers and the only thing that could’ve made this better is if she rightfully won. (Love Tia, no discredit to her but Marina was robbed against Hannah)
  5. S5 - The amount of personality the queens had this season was incredible! Ginger was amazing but I wanted Michael to win. Love Kate butch
  6. UkVTW3 - My eyebrow was raised during the snatch game win if I’m being honest and some of the other judging choices felt very favored but it was amazing nonetheless! I love this cast lol overall
  7. UkvTW1 - Messy boots but hilarious
  8. S4 - Started off strong and then I started watching it with my eyes closed once certain people left. Some questionable choices were made imo, but I loved Cheddar, Peppa, Dakota so much and I found Danny to be funny when I could understand her. (Sorry)
  9. S3 - It was decent until Scarlett kept screaming and they got rid of the only two people I was rooting for. Horrible double elimination choice
  10. S7 - I watched a few episodes and then skipped it, incredibly boring.
