A Drag Race fan's werk is never done. Just when you think you've watched every episode of every franchise, another weekend arrives — bringing with it another half dozen international, stunt-filled dragstravaganzas. The notion that you will ever watch every single episode of Drag Race is the same as a fantasy about the Pit Crew: It's a pipe dream.
But hey, would you have it any other way? The seasons may change, and our global politics may worsen, but the ruveal of a new batch of brightly colored promo photos every month or so is more dependable than most things on Earth. It's RuPaul's globe and we're all Jamal Sims: just happy to be here.
The following is a list of every Drag Race series known to mankind; no word on whether or not explorers have found Drag Race Atlantis yet. The franchises are grouped based on how likely they are to return for another season, starting with the ones that are already locked, loaded, and ready to turn the party.

Too soon to tell
Drag Race Down Under
Season 4 finale: December 20, 2024
Drag Race Thailand
Season 3 finale: December 18, 2024
RuPaul's Drag Race Global All Stars
Season 1 finale: October 25, 2024
TBA, but likely
Drag Race Philippines
Season 3 finale: October 9, 2024
As with Drag Race France (below), it looks like we're getting an All Stars iteration (Slaysian Royale) this year instead of a regular season.
Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World
Season 2 finale: August 23, 2024
Considering that Season 2 was well-received and the vs. the World series have so far been an every-other-year stunt, there's little reason to worry about the future of this franchise.
Drag Race France
Season 3 finale: July 19, 2024
It seems like the announcement of a France All Stars took the place of a Season 4 announcement, and that's fine by me.
Drag Race España All Stars
Season 1 finale: March 17, 2024
So far España remains the most enduring non-English language spinoff, and there's nothing to suggest they won't keep the All Stars franchise going. It just may be a semi-annual gig rather than a yearly tradition.
Drag Race Holland
Season 2 finale: September 24, 2021
But hold up — ! News hit in October that Dutch production company Herriemakers had snatched up the rights to produce future seasons of Drag Race Holland. Whether or not those rights will be exercised remains unknown.
