Viacom has launched its free Logo TV Everywhere App for iPhone and iPad.

On Thursday, its users can watch “21 1/2 Moments That Made Us Gag,” a never-before-seen 30-minute countdown special of highlights from the first five seasons of popular reality competition, “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” exclusively on the app.

Logo will also premiere the first episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race’s” upcoming new season starting Monday, Feb. 17 on the new app, a week ahead of its TV premiere on Monday, Feb. 24 at 9/8c.

Additionally, the Logo TV app contains a library of LGBT films, past episodes of the network’s shows and specials, and bonus content.

“With the launch of the Logo TV app, we’re providing fans another way to enjoy our shows and characters while opening a rich library of content including free movies, documentaries, as well as inspiring and informative LGBT resources,” said Logo TV’s senior vice president of programming and platform strategy, Marc Leonard, in a statement.

The app will offer a new co-viewing experience that will filter the best tweets from Twitter and allow fans to discuss their favorite shows and characters in real time with other fans or with the show’s cast on the app or via Facebook.

This is just the latest move from Viacom to provide exclusive access to its shows via its video apps. It had recently launched similar apps for MTV, CMT and the MTV Artists App, a Shazam-Like app paired with Artists.MTV.com
