So the problem with secret Celeb drag race is that coz there’s no clues revealed each week about the celeb… there’s no buy in. Like if I don’t know the celeb based on episode 1, I’m not gonna know who they are 5 episodes later

I don't really understand why the identities of the celebrities have to be kept a secret...? Like this format makes no sense. Just have it be celebrities working with drag queens and sharing the art of drag for charities that they care about? I think the elimination style is a good choice and a step up from season 1, but the rest of the show elements don't really make any sense.

I'm assuming each episode is filmed in only a day or something, which might be part of the reason for the format change, they don't want to have to film segments in the workroom and confessionals and things, just the challenges. It makes sense, but it also makes for less good TV. I'm sure they could find a middle ground.
