There\u2019s foodie Antoni Porowski, whose controversial sour cream guacamole was validated by a Mexican granny this season, British manic-pixie stylist Tan France, fan favourite groomer\/figure skater Jonathan Van Ness, the adorable, overburdened interior designer Bobby Berk, and Karamo Brown, the \u201cculture\u201d expert whose jacket game is second to none. Past seasons have gone beyond the straight guy: They have featured a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/gender\/lesbian-bi-or-pansexual-why-i-refuse-to-label-my-sexuality\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lesbian<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> girl, a pair of middle-aged businesswomen, a closeted gay man trying to come out, and in one of the most tear-jerker episodes to date, a transman.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The format of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> doesn\u2019t stray much from the original: Friends and family members nominate a loved one who, according to them, is in desperate need of the Fab Five\u2019s intervention. Usually, there\u2019s a serious event \u2013 a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/social-commentary\/india-lowest-divorce-rate-in-the-world\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">divorce<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for instance, or an illness \u2013 or the person has been a lost cause for years, totally resistant to improving their situation. In swoop the Fab Five to spur on growth in every aspect of their subject\u2019s life, giving them tips on how to present themselves and be physically and emotionally healthier. So far, the show has mostly been set in Georgia, Kansas, and Missouri, and once in Australia, with a fifth season in Philadelphia in the works.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And after binging the fourth season, it can\u2019t come soon enough. The new <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> opens with the guys returning to Van Ness\u2019s high school to meet a beloved arts educator from his youth, a teacher who spares no efforts for her students while leaving no time for herself. As Van Ness, the most <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/gender\/trans-bill-same-sex-marriage-the-fight-is-far-from-over-for-mumbai-pride-parade-in-a-post-377-world\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">flamboyant<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the five, tells her how much she means to him because she heard him out when he was bullied for being a cheerleader, they both tear up. Then there\u2019s the Mexican-American who, after experiencing harassment in the past, fears racist judgments from her white neighbours. When Brown encourages her to talk to them, she realises the community is more welcoming that she thought, and that she\u2019s been close-minded. These are the moments that keep <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">relevant even as it churns out two seasons a year, flirting with politics and social issues through a distinctly human lens.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although at first glance, it might seem like little more than a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pimp My Ride<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for people and their homes, the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sensation has swept the globe largely thanks to the boundless charm of its Fab Five, who never resort to shame or judgment as tools for change. Van Ness regularly persuades the most retrosexual dudes to put themselves in his hands, shaving treasured moustaches and casually applying mousse and colour corrector. He exhorts them to take care of their appearance and feel good about themselves, normalising it all with a sincere refrain of \u201cgorgeous, henny!\u201d For the straight men especially, these <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/pov\/how-not-to-take-a-friggin-compliment\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">compliments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are obviously rare. More than any magic Van Ness and France work, it\u2019s the sheer wonder of seeing themselves as attractive and worthy that blows their minds and captures the hearts of viewers. The rest of the guys, too, are a fount of positivity, and win the confidence of their crustiest, most unwilling subjects by simply being too delightful to repress. This lovefest extends as much to each other as their project of the week. They kiss, cuddle, and express their affection unguardedly.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is also what takes <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> beyond the superficial trappings of chic wardrobes and tasteful decor and what keeps it reliably binge-worthy. As bouffant-loving fashion correspondent France says in the show\u2019s opening episode, the last <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was about tolerance and this one is about acceptance. By extension, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is also about accepting the best tenets of queer culture into the mainstream: The values that come from a people who don\u2019t fit into the rigid expectations of society, and who understand that, regardless of orientation, no one really does. They champion radical, unconditional <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/pov\/a-love-letter-to-my-big-fat-body\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">self-love<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0and diversity, demanding that we all feel secure with ourselves before anyone else does. Without ever mentioning <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/bollywood\/kabir-singh-can-learn-violent-men-kumbalangi-nights\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">toxic masculinity<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or patriarchy, the Fab Five hammer away at its invisible constraints in an immediately tangible way, speaking to self-sacrificing women who have let themselves go; the clueless dads and the manchildren who need the tools to be better; and the misfits who don\u2019t know how to live in their skin.\u00a0<\/span>\n<blockquote class=\"quote--center\">More than any magic Van Ness and France work, it\u2019s the sheer wonder of seeing themselves as attractive and worthy that blows their minds and captures the hearts of viewers.<\/blockquote>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To this end, perhaps the single most important member of the team is Brown, a former social worker known for engaging his subjects in long drives that lead to meaningful conversations about their flagging relationships with themselves. It\u2019s this emotional red meat that keeps <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> engaging by turning each individual into a story that can\u2019t be contained by the show\u2019s formula. Perhaps this has never been more evident than in this season\u2019s second episode, \u201cDisabled But Not Really\u201d. Here, the Fab Five work with Wesley, a wheelchair-bound gunshot victim, who used to be a street thug but who has turned his life around since becoming <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/pov\/disabled-protagonists-bollywood-films\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">disabled<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. He\u2019s now an activist, a devoted single dad, and someone who seemingly just needs a little \u201czhuzh\u201d to live to the fullest. But Brown can\u2019t possibly let the show stop there. He brings Wesley face-to-face with his shooter, mediating a dialogue between the two that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/hollywood\/2019\/07\/karamo-brown-queer-eye-season-4-gunshot-victim\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">apparently<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> went on for hours, though we only see a few minutes televised. According to Brown, moving on by necessity means facing past demons and finding closure, and these are the moments that elevate <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> into, as its logline promises, more than a makeover.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And yet, even these heavy conversations about gang violence, a scene in Episode Four where a workaholic mother is confronted by her <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/modern-family\/mother-daughter-friendship-father-death\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">daughters<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or the frequent flow of tears both on-screen and from viewers, do nothing to dilute the uplifting joy of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In a world rife with endless divisions and disagreements, the Fab Five provide a ray of hope that bridges the difficult, awkward, overwhelming gaps between us with a universal truth: Underneath the surface, all anyone wants is to be loved and accepted for who they are. So when everyone from immigrant grandmothers to deeply <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/modern-family\/inter-caste-marriage-woke-dad-family\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">conservative dads<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> call the Fab Five angels of change, it doesn\u2019t just seem like an exercise in clever editing. Instead, it\u2019s clear that the guys give everyone they meet a much-needed education in embracing their own specific brand of queer.\u00a0<\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Queer Eye is about bringing the best tenets of queer culture into the mainstream: The values that come from people who don\u2019t fit the rigid expectations of society, and who understand that, regardless of orientation, no one does.
