History Trivia / Dragula

* ChannelHop: Every time Dragula comes back for a new season, it seems to be on a new channel. The first season aired as a standalone project on the ''Hey Qween'' [=YouTube=] channel. Season 2 also aired on [=YouTube=], although this time the official WOW Presents channel, while airing on [=OutTV=] in Canada. Season 3 jumped to Amazon Prime (which also lead to the first two seasons getting pulled from [=YouTube=]), and then Season 4 moved again to horror movie streaming service Shudder.
** Finally averted, with Shudder renewing the show for a fifth season (along with an announcement that it had been the most popular program on the service for the entire airing of season four!).

* ExtremelyLengthyCreation: There was a two-year gap in between the show's second (2017) and third (2019) seasons, with little word from the Boulets during that period. Ultimately a positive example, as the third season came with a significant budget increase.

* RomanceOnTheSet: Abhora and Erika admitted to having some romantic involvement during season two, and Victoria said she and Dahli started seeing each other after the latter's elimination.

*** Invoked and now a major plot point of Titans. Not only are both pairings back with unresolved tensions, but Abhora has clear feelings for and a history with [=HoSo=], whereas [=HoSo=]’s feelings are far more ambiguous.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Disasterina, Evah Destruction, and Landon Cider have all publicly acknowledged they had auditioned for ''Series/RuPaulsDragRace'', with Evah and Landon having tried multiple times. Evah auditioned for 6 years and was shortlisted for seasons 8 and 9 while Landon tried out for seasons 6, 7, and 9 but never heard back despite being one of the top drag kings in the US. Disasterina's season 10 audition reel is up on her [=YouTube=] channel.
* WordOfGod: Saint stated on social media that each of her Final Floorshow looks of Season 4 had a connection to one of her previous looks: Glamour was the wife of her Ghost Ship Glamour ghoul, the Horror tooth fairy was the reason her Killer Clown couldn’t talk, and the Filth housewife was her Vampire from ''Resurrection'' before being turned.

* FanNickname: The Boulets are commonly distinguished by fans as “Big Boulet” (Dracmorda) and “Small Boulet” (Swanthula).

** Season 4 saw a budding romance between Astrud and Hoso, including a lingering "meet cute" shot in episode 1. [[spoiler: Though this was CutShort after the former was eliminated in episode 2.]]

** Biqtch Puddin's Gothic Bride look was intended to be a macabre reference to the murdered child pageant queen [=JonBenét=] Ramsey, complete with the strangulation marks on Biqtch's neck. The explanation was cut from the show due to the Canadian censors objecting.

* ExtremelyLengthyCreation: There was a two-year gap in between the show's second and third seasons, with little word from the Boulets during that period. Ultimately a positive example, as the third season came with a significant budget increase. A similar break occurred between seasons 3 and 4, and while [[UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic extenuating circumstances]] were to blame, the ''Resurrection'' special was filmed and released with a skeleton crew and social distancing for a 2020 release, and 2021 had season 4 move to the Shudder horror movie streaming service and the grand prize raised to US$100,000.[[note]]A definite jump in budget as first two seasons' grand prize was only US$10,000, season 3 was US$25,000, and ''Resurrection'' was US$20,000.[[/note]]

** James Majesty intended to give herself a golden shower as part of her Finale Filth look but wasn't allowed to perform the act on set. This led to the giant sausage and mustard moment instead.
** Victoria Elizabeth Black's Finale Filth look also suffered as a result of the censorship concerns, as Victoria apparently fisted the fake corpse she used during her Floor Show and then disemboweled it through its ass. While she did manage to perform this on stage, it was cut from the episode.

** In season 3, it was a plot point that Hollow Eve was saving their used tampons in the cast's communal freezer. By the time of the Garbage and Sharpies challenge of episode 5, Hollow wore an outfit made out of ''unused'' tampons and maxi pads, having been told by production that they couldn't use actual blood, fake blood, or even red makeup, making their attempt to subvert NoPeriodsPeriod fall flat.
