"The Trixie & Katya Show" premiered Wednesday, November 15th at 10 pm ET/PT on Viceland TV.
"Born out of their popular YouTube series “UNHhhh”, which recently landed a coveted spot on Entertainment Weekly’s “Must List” of the Ten Things They Love This Week (EW, 7/28/17), “The Trixie & Katya Show” is a hilarious hybrid of late-night, daytime, and advice shows.
Hosted by “RuPaul’s Drag Race” fan favorites Trixie Mattel (Season 7’s breakout, whose elimination remains one of the most controversial in “Drag Race” herstory) and Katya (an All-Stars Finalist and Season 7’s “Miss Congeniality”), the girls discuss anything and everything from their distinct points of view. Topics run the gamut from hook-ups and break-ups, fear, God, death, and porn, to name a few.
“The Trixie & Katya Show” is from World of Wonder and is executive produced by Fenton Bailey, Randy Barbato, Tom Campbell, Nelson Walters and RuPaul."
Starting from episode ten, season 8 winner Bob the Drag Queen filled in for Katya as she was on a drag hiatus.
The show has guest appearances from several queens from previous RuPaul's Drag Race seasons, including Manila Luzon, Morgan McMichaels, Derrick Barry and Farrah Moan as an "Army of Queens". Drag Race judge Ross Mathews also appeared as an interview guest in an episode.
Trixie and Katya returned to UNHhhh on the WOWPresents YouTube channel on 24th October 2018 for its third season.

Trivia
- Behind-the-scenes footage of The Trixie & Katya Show was featured in Trixie Mattel's documentary Moving Parts, including Katya's decision to leave the show after taking a hiatus from drag and the subsequent fallout.
- Also in the Moving Parts documentary it was mentioned that Trixie was filming The Trixie & Katya Show mere days before leaving to film All Stars 3. She was also reportedly allowed to leave the set of All Stars 3 at certain points to film segments for the show; the only other queen known to have been allowed to leave the filming of All Stars is Alyssa Edwards, who left the set of All Stars 2 to appear as backup dancer in Miley Cyrus' 2015 MTV Video Music Awards performance.
- Bob the Drag Queen also featured as a guest co-host of the UNHhhh panel at DragCon NYC in 2018, and has since appeared as a guest on an episode of Trixie and Katya's The Bald and the Beautiful podcast.
