Snatch Game es un desafío cómico recurrente en la franquicia televisiva Drag Race y un elemento fijo de la serie de competencia de telerrealidad . [ 1 ] Desde la segunda temporada de la serie original estadounidense RuPaul's Drag Race en 2010, el desafío ha regresado en cada temporada posterior. Generalmente organizado como una parodia de Match Game (conocido como Blankety Blank en el Reino Unido, Blankety Blanks en Australia y Jogo dos Pontinhos en Brasil), el desafío es una prueba de las habilidades de los concursantes para imitar celebridades y comedia de improvisación .
El desafío se repite de manera similar en varios spin-offs, incluidos All Stars y Secret Celebrity Drag Race , así como en las adaptaciones internacionales para el público tailandés , británico , canadiense , [ 2 ] holandés , australiano-neozelandés , español , italiano , francés , filipino , belga , sueco , mexicano , brasileño y alemán .
El Snatch Game, que suele tener lugar a mitad de cada temporada de Drag Race , es considerado uno de los retos más importantes y memorables del programa y, en palabras de RuPaul, separa a "las chicas básicas de las reinas más feroces". [ 3 ] Las ganadoras del programa suelen estar entre las mejores participantes del Snatch Game, [ a ] aunque hay algunas excepciones. [ b ]
Las concursantes drag queen suelen imitar a mujeres, aunque varias eligen a celebridades masculinas con imágenes públicas lo suficientemente extravagantes como para encajar en la estética drag. [ 4 ] Varias concursantes han optado por imitar a otras personas directamente relacionadas con el programa, como otras concursantes pasadas o presentes, Michelle Visage o RuPaul . [ 5 ] Las reinas no pueden elegir personajes con derechos de autor , [ 6 ] aunque algunas representaciones de celebridades se han basado fielmente en una actuación específica en pantalla. [ 4 ]
El desafío a menudo requiere la participación de celebridades invitadas especiales, quienes frecuentemente también fungen como jueces invitados del episodio. Otras temporadas presentan al equipo de producción habitual del programa —Michelle Visage, Ross Mathews , Carson Kressley , Rhys Nicholson o miembros del Pit Crew— en lugar de invitados externos.
Ginger Minj ha ganado el Snatch Game tres veces, más que ninguna otra reina en la franquicia. Otras ocho reinas han ganado el Snatch Game dos veces: BenDeLaCreme , Baga Chipz , Jinkx Monsoon , Trinity the Tuck , Jimbo , Hannah Conda , Gottmik y Punani . Tres reinas han sido eliminadas dos veces por sus actuaciones en el Snatch Game: Gia Gunn , Onyx Unleashed y Cynthia Lee Fontaine .

Celebrities impersonated multiple times
Cardi B is the most frequently impersonated celebrity. Jennifer Coolidge is the second most frequently impersonated celebrity and the first to be simultaneously impersonated by two competing queens in the same Snatch Game followed only by Liberace. Both queens who impersonated Mariah Carey and two of the five queens who impersonated Cardi B were eliminated, making them the only choices of impersonation subject to lead to multiple contestants' eliminations. Both of the queens to impersonate Ariana Grande, Celine Dion, Ellen DeGeneres, Nancy Grace, and Rue McClanahan, respectively, and two of the three queens to impersonate Lady Gaga were up for elimination due to their performances, but only one queen was eliminated for each. Two of the four queens to impersonate Eartha Kitt, and two of the three queens to impersonate Cher and RuPaul, respectively, landed in the bottom, but none of them were eliminated. Three of the four queens to impersonate Liza Minnelli won the Snatch Game, making her the first impersonation subject to earn multiple queens a win, while Joan Rivers became the second following season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Reception
Snatch Game is considered the signature challenge on the show.[15] Kevin O'Keeffe from Into discusses that the challenge isn't only about the celebrity impersonation and RuPaul looks for accuracy, humor, and the idea of the character. He also states that the challenge tests a lot of different skills, such as the queens' ability to put on a different look from their signature one, and also their ability to be "funny on a dime".[16] RuPaul states each year, as the challenge is introduced, that the cardinal rule of the challenge is to make him laugh.[5]
Writing for Vulture, Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers state that "Snatch Game" is "the mother of all comedy challenges on a reality show" despite the varied results over the years.[17] On a more critical reception of the challenge, Josh Lee, for PopBuzz, argues that while the annual challenge has given viewers some of the best moments from RuPaul's Drag Race, it is starting to feel stale overall. He comments that recent celebrity impersonations in the challenge have been lackluster and the show should adapt and retire "Snatch Game" in future seasons of the series.[18]
