About The Pit Stop
The Pit Stop is a short, conversational aftershow that follows episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race and RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars. Hosted by Bianca Del Rio, each installment brings together two guests, usually former competitors, to recap the night's runway looks, challenges, and eliminations. The format is informal, leaning on quick wit, insider anecdotes, and pointed assessments rather than formal critique. Guests riff on memorable moments, applaud surprises, and joke about judges' decisions, giving viewers an accessible second take that feels like watching with friends who know the backstage stories.
The Pit Stop premiered in 2016 as an official companion to the main Drag Race franchise. Bianca Del Rio anchors the program while past contestants are invited as rotating panelists, creating continuity with the larger series and leveraging the personalities fans already follow.
Within the Drag Race community, The Pit Stop became a dependable part of weekly viewing, a place where offhand remarks and punchlines spread quickly on social media. Short clips and standout reactions often get reshared by fans, and the show helps queens extend their presence beyond the competition, boosting engagement and sparking online conversation among viewers.
The series hasn't been the focus of major industry awards, and there are no widely reported wins tied to it. Its purpose is more about fan interaction and added exposure for performers than about chasing prestige recognition from large award bodies.
Viewer response is modestly favorable, reflected in a 7.0/10 user score from a small sample of votes. Fans tend to praise the show's humor, candid tone, and the way it highlights camaraderie among contestants. The Pit Stop focuses on community, critique delivered with warmth, and comic relief, making it a breezy add-on for anyone already invested in the main competition.
