RuPaul’s AJ and the Queen will not be returning for a second season at Netflix.

The first season of the musical drama debuted on the streaming service on January 10.

It starred RuPaul as Ruby Red, a bigger than life but down on her luck drag queen who travels across America from club to club in a rundown 1990’s van, in order to recoup the savings recently stolen from her.

She partners up with AJ, a recently orphaned, tough-talking, scrappy 10-year-old white girl stowaway. As these two misfits, one tall – one small, travel from city to city, Ruby’s message of love and acceptance winds up touching people and changes their lives a little for the better.

“This fun, outrageous series explores ideas of family, friendship, love, and loss. Together they help each other navigate the heartbreaking past, the challenging present and a hopeful future as Ruby and AJ travel the USA searching for a little happiness and the very best breakfast waffle,” the description for the series continues.

“Part Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, Part Touched by an Angel. Oh, and RuPaul performs a killer musical number in every drag club.”

On Friday, RuPaul tweeted that it was the “end of the road” for the series, which would not be returning for a second season.
