The first season of
Drag Race was accompanied by a seven-episode
web series, titled ''Under the Hood of RuPaul's Drag Race
. LOGOonline published a webisode of Under the Hood
after each episode of Drag Race''. In this companion series, RuPaul presents a documentary of contestants' conversation in the
green room, replays pertinent moments from
Drag Race, and airs deleted footage. In the second season of
Drag Race in 2010, Logo reformatted
Under the Hood, increased its production budget, moved it from the web to television, and re-titled it to ''RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked
. Logo broadcast an episode of Untucked
after each episode of Drag Race
. Untucked
replaces the basic green room of Under the Hood'' with two decorated rooms that were until season six sponsored by
Absolut Vodka and Interior Illusions, Inc.: the Interior Illusions Lounge and the Gold Bar. FormDecor sponsored the Lounge for season six. These two backstage areas allow for separate group conversations. At the start of the seventh season of the
Drag Race,
Untucked reverted to a web series, as part of the World of Wonder YouTube page. Instead of two decorated rooms,
Untucked was moved back to one room, an empty backstage space that connects to the main stage and work room, with couches for contestants to chat on. The newly renovated version also follows contestants following their elimination from the show, documenting them packing their belongings and leaving the set, with a move away from focusing on produced drama and conflicts among the cast. The web series format continued for the eighth and ninth seasons. For the show's tenth season,
Untucked returned to television, where it aired on
VH1 during the 30-minute time slot after the 90-minute episode airs. For the ''Untucked's'' thirteenth season, the show was filmed in the newly expanded work room in accordance with
COVID-19 protocols. == Series overview ==
