What ‘AJ and the Queen’ Viewers Wanted to Happen During Season 2
Unfortunately for fans of RuPaul and campy drag numbers, Netflix recently canceled their original series, AJ and the Queen. That doesnāt mean viewers canāt hope for a season 2, some even starting a petition for more episodes. Hereās what fans wish would happen during the second season of Netflixās original series, AJ and the Queen.
RuPaul stars in the Netflix original series, āAJ and the Queenā
Fans may know this drag performer from RuPaulās Drag Race. However, RuPaul stars in a few other television shows, including an original series for Netflix. In it, the celebrity acts as the executive producer and as a drag queen named Ruby.Ā
The character then befriends and takes care of a young child, named AJ. Together, they lip-sync their way through the country, on a road trip from New York City to Texas. (The series also starred multiple drag queens and Drag Race alumni, including Trinity the Tuck, Katya Zamolodchikova, Eureka OāHara, and Chad Michaels.)
Itās been a few months since fans met this unlikely duo. Although some speculated that the series could continue for another season, Netflix canceled RuPaulās original comedy/drama show, AJ and the Queen.

Although some anticipated the series to continue for a few more episodes, during March 2020, RuPaul tweeted an announcement to viewers that Netflix did not renew AJ and the Queen for season 2. Some fans didnāt take the news too well. In fact, thereās even a petition going around, started by fans, urging Netflix to bring the series back.
āI honestly really enjoyed watching this show! It really opened my eyes, full to the fact that confidence is key and not everything can be picture perfect, but stand tall,ā one Twitter user said, sharing a link of the petition.

Will AJ go back to New York with her mother? Will Robert adopt his newfound friend? Season 1 left off on a bit of a cliffhanger, some viewers taking to social media about the abrupt ending. Other viewers guessed what wouldāve happened during future episodes.
āTHATāS HOW THEY ARE GONNA END AJ AND THE QUEEN?? DOES ROBERT ADOPT AJ? DOES THE MOTHER STAY OF DRUGS? [DO] LOUIS AND PATRICK GET TOGETHER?? SEASON 2 IS NEEDED,ā one Twitter user wrote.
āSeason 2 of AJ and the Queen: Robert is arrested for kidnapping. Robert gets an adoption attorney to adopt AJ. Opportunity awaits in LA to be on a Drag Competition Show, hosted by [Michelle Visage,] leading to another cross country tour,ā another Twitter user speculated.
Although AJ and the Queen may be drawing to a close, fans can still watch RuPaul on the Emmy-award winning reality competition series, RuPaulās Drag Race. Now in its 12th season, this television show premieres on a weekly basis on VH1.
