MANY NSIRED THE SHOW GROUNDBREAKG FOR FEATURG A ST OF GAY MEN NOT PLAYG OUTLANDISH FICTNAL CREATNS, BUT BEG THEMSELV. OTHERS LASHED OUT AGAST ; WHILE HOMOPHOBIC VIEWERS CRIED THE SERI FOR NORMALIZG HOMOSEXUALY, QUEER EYE ALSO SPARKED BATE AMONG PROGRSIV WHO FLTED THE SHOW FOR WHAT THEY SAW AS PROMOTG GAY STEREOTYP. “WE EVEN GOT NOT OM BARNEY FRANK, WHO WAS ACTUALLY OUR NGRSMAN,” SAYS EXECUTIVE PRODUCER MICHAEL WILLIAMS. (SUT PRODUCTNS, -FOUND BY WILLIAMS AND QUEER EYE -CREATOR DAVID COLLS, WAS LOTED BOSTON AT THE TIME.) “HE WAS CRICIZG THE SHOW, SAYG, ‘YOU’RE STEREOTYPG. YOU HAVE A SIGNER AND A OK.’”WILLIAMS THKS THE CRICISM WAS OFF BASE. “WE WEREN’T SAYG, ‘WE’RE DOG A SHOW ABOUT TYPIL GAY MEN, AND THEY ALL HAPPEN TO BE EXPERTS TERR SIGN AND OKG!’” HE SAYS. “IT’S A MAKEOVER SHOW. YOU NEED AN TERR SIGNER AND A CHEF.”IN SPE OF, OR PERHAPS BEE OF, THOSE NTROVERSI, THE SHOW BEME A BONA FI BH ERA H—ONE THAT, LIKE SO MANY OTHER BYGONE MEDIA PHENOMENA, IS BEG REBOOTED ON NETFLIX. THIS TIME AROUND, THE SHOW HAS UNRGONE A TRANSFORMATN OF S OWN, ONE MEANT TO HELP NAVIGATE THE EVEN MORE PLITED POLICS OF THE CURRENT AMERIN MOMENT. THE NEW VERSN OF THE SERI, WHICH LNCH FEBARY 7, IS SIMPLY BILLED AS QUEER EYE. IT’S BASED NOT NEW YORK CY, BUT AND AROUND ATLANTA. AND WHILE MOST OF THE GUYS GETTG LIFE AND STYLE MAKEOVERS ARE STRAIGHT, ONE EPISO CENTERS ON A GAY AIN-AMERIN MAN WHO HAS SPENT MUCH OF HIS LIFE LIVG ON THE DOWN LOW. HE’S HAPPY TO HAVE MORAL SUPPORT OM THE SHOW’S NEW “FAB FIVE”: TAN FRANCE (WHOSE FOC IS FASHN), ANTONI POROWSKI (FOOD AND WE), JONATHAN VAN NS (GROOMG), BOBBY BERK (TERR SIGN), AND KARAMO BROWN (CULTURE).ANYONE WHO WATCHED QUEER EYE THE GHTS WILL RELL THAT THE ORIGAL FIVE—CARSON KRSLEY, TED ALLEN, KYAN DOUGLAS, THOM FILICIA, AND JAI RODRIGUEZ—WERE LARGER-THAN-LIFE FIGUR. “THEY WERE SUPERHERO THAT SWEPT TO SAVE THE DAY,” SAYS COLLS. “IT WAS PART OF THE FORMAT.”AND WAS AN ENTERTAG APPROACH—BUT AS DYNAMIC AS THAT FIRST GROUP WAS, THE SHOW NEVER TRAVELED VERY FAR BENEATH THE SURFACE. ITS STARS OFTEN FELT MORE LIKE CHARACTERS THAN FULLY-ROUND PEOPLE: “I DON’T THK AMERI WAS READY TO HEAR ONE OF THE FAB FIVE REFER TO THEIR HBAND OR THEIR BOYIEND,” COLLS NTU. “I THK HAD CARSON AND KYAN SAID THAT, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A PRETTY STRONG BACKLASH.”BUT THE NEW QUEER EYE, THE GROUP IS MORE THAN A WISH-FULFILLG MACHE. THEY REVEAL MORE OF THEIR OWN LIV TO THE DIENCE: FRANCE, WHO IS MLIM, TALKS ABOUT BEG MARRIED TO A MORMON, AND BROWN, WHOM VIEWERS MIGHT REMEMBER OM MTV’S THE REAL WORLD: PHILALPHIA, DISCS FATHERHOOD.MOST POPULARSARA RAMIREZ ISSU STHG RPONSE TO ANTI–CHE DIAZ PROFILEBY SAVANNAH WALSH25 PERFECT TV EPISOS FROM THE LAST 25 YEARSBY HILLARY BISTHE GILD AGE WILL GET A LOT MORE OPERATIC SEASON 2BY RICHARD LAWSON“WHAT’S SO BETIFUL NOW IS THAT OUR GUYS NOT ONLY GET TO BE THEMSELV, BUT THEY GET TO TELL THEIR STORI.

THE PRODUCERS WANTED TO PRENT A MORE NUANCED PORTRAYAL OF THE FAB FIVE, ONE THAT ULD STAND UP TO THE CREASGLY THREE-DIMENSNAL PORTRAYALS OF QUEER PEOPLE VIEWERS HAVE SEEN ON TELEVISN AND FILM OVER THE LAST —AN IA THEY SAY NETFLIX FULLY SUPPORTED. “FOR ME, THAT’S A BIG CHANGE. THE WORLD HAS EVOLVED,” COLLS SAYS.COLLS AND WILLIAMS, WHO ARE BOTH GAY—AND WERE ONCE MARRIED TO EACH OTHER—SAY THE POSIVE FEEDBACK RECEIVED BY THE SHOW GREATLY OUTWEIGHED ANY NEGATIVE REACTN OM QUEER EYE’S EARLY DAYS.

The impact of the origal seri nnot be overstated, but there was blowback the gay muny as some felt the show turned the Fab Five to flawls superhero at bt or ritur at worst.
I n say firsthand that not seeg specifilly myself any of the origal Fab Five kept me unr the ln that I was straight well to llege bee I thought gays weren’t ma like me. My fear gog to the new Queer Eye was that the new show would once aga feature five gay men cut om the same queer cloth stead of pullg swatch om many fab fabrics. So I wanted to fd whatever is I’m lookg for the new Fab Five, like a 21st century Tony Slattery or Charl Nelson Reilly (or at least other gay men that unt those two gays amongst their hero as I do).

Bravo TV Seri Has Straight Men Takg Gay Style Advice * gay guys makeover show *
This makeover show ma me over durg my bge-watch, and episo four (the absolutely sential hour of TV that is “To Gay or Not Too Gay”) was the turng pot. It is rare to watch an episo that addrs every sgle crique haters might have about the larger show, and “To Gay or Not Too Gay” breaks every argument agast the show down to an atomic level and then smash them. That’s bee, for what I assume is the first time Queer Eye history, the show ma over a gay man.
One: spotlights the tth that all gays are not super-powered fashnistas.
In the episo, groomg expert Jonathan Van Ns says, “There’s a stereotype that gay men are all expert signers, perfect at lor ordatn, but not all gay men know how to do that! ” And two: the Fab Five makg over a gay man allows six gay men to have real, direct, and hont nversatns about what means to be gay, what means to be gay men, and– the se of culture expert Karamo Brown and the episo’s subject AJ–what means to be gay, black men. ” That word, “feme, ” grabs Tan’s attentn and giv him a way to a dialogue that every gay man has, albe ually ternally.
STRAIGHTS GET GAY TV MAKEOVERS
Some gay men are naturally feme, and ’s somethg they n’t hi; Jonathan says as much this episo’s fantastic g-out-story montage, sayg he “uldn’t hi . ” Other gay men are naturally more mascule and al wh the assumptn that they should be more feme, which n e them to reil om all thgs emed “girly.
” And some gay men are somewhere the middle, surround by people embracg or rejectg the same stereotyp. Before g out, before I even knew I was gay, I was flashy. Then I me out, and I beme as nservative as the FCC, monorg all my cloth to make sure they didn’t broadst gay signals.
THE NEW ‘QUEER EYE’ HAIR MASTER ON CREATG THE GAY ‘GREAT BRISH BAKE OFF’ OF MAKEOVER SHOWS
My purple Chuck Taylor high-tops, left unworn the closet bee purple was the gayt lor. Those li’l socks were gay as hell.
Beg gay but tryg to not seem gay is 1. When Tan and food and we expert Antoni Porowski take AJ cloth shoppg, a flavor of tea that I drank for years is spilt: AJ don’t show off bee of the perceptn that gay men are va, and he worri that if he gets a ltle b flashier, he’ll lose himself.
The fear I had about beg seen as gay, the same fear AJ has at the top of this ep, I had to bt like a ghastly ghost.

I’m proudly gay my own way, flntg and breakg stereotyp however I want.
It’s about everyone beg the bt versn of themselv they n be, wh the help of five empathetic gay men. The fact that this missn statement om Jonathan, the prime example of a flamboyant and femme-leang gay man, is fantastic.

This le g om Jonathan, the kd of gay I spent my 20s beg aaid of beg, ’s profound. It’s one type of gay man tellg another type of gay man that what matters is what’s his heart, and this upled wh Karamo’s nnectn wh AJ as gay black men… ’s healg. This episo shows there are some stereotyp to be proud of (“Sky is blue, grass is green”) and there is one–the stereotype that all gay men are snarky backbers–that needs to sashay away.
Now looks like the work might be followg the footsteps of TLC's Nate & Jeremiah By Dign wh a show starrg a gay uple who lov to sign and and Thomas McKay, a married uple who refer to themselv as "The Property Lovers, " flip ho their hometown of Chattanooga. When the the Benhams' stnch anti-gay, anti-choice views beme the subject of ntroversy, the work pulled the plug.
