More Queer Eye for the Straight Guy

I have gotten more interest in my post about Queer Eye than almost any other post I’ve ever done. This just illustrates that the show kicks butt!

Bravo, Bravo!

First of all, Carson is the star. He is the witty quipper of the show. Love him! And I loved the episode where he tried on the speedos. Oh my! And he says he doesn’t work out! Liar liar pants on fire…

But my second favorite is Ted, the food guy. He does have very good food ideas, and he’s so nice. I mean, he comes up with little digs every once in a while, but he is very careful to try and get food things that are what the straight person likes. I can’t believe he sent to florida to get kosher Foi gras! Is that sweet or what? He’s so earnest and I like his deep voice.

The rest blur a little for me…Except Kyan, the grooming guy. He ATTACKS the bathroom for styling products.

But here are the questions that must be asked:
What happened to the black guy? THere was a black guy, a culture guy, on one or two of the episodes. Did he disappear? I found no mention of him on the website yesterday. Umm…what is going on?

I thought that maybe they were doing a rotating thing, bringing on a “guest Gay guy.” That would be cool, don’t you think? I’d like to see the gay guys flirt with each other a little…You know? Add some chemistry. Right now, they are mostly teasing the straight guy. That’s funny too, but the more the merrier! I could totally see having a guest gay guy working out.

Take a clue, bravo!

I will say, I am thinking more about my own home now. What would Kyan think of my bathroom? I know Carson would not approve of the things in my closet right now. I need to go shopping.

And I need to redecorate.

  1. The guy you mentioned is Blair. He was the original culture guru but left because of scheduling conflicts (not sure what type of schedule he had). Jai took over as culture expert. He’s currently headlining in an off-Broadway musical production called “Zanna Don’t” (take off of “Xanadu”).

    It would be interesting to have a rotating guest per show.

    BTW: Ted is the only guy that’s in a relationship. All others are single.

  2. Racism. Pure and simple. “American’s not ready for a REAL leading black man”. I’m sure that’s what the white NBC execs decided. The guy coulda been purple, female with two heads – but apparently he didn’t ‘fit’ into the party line. Look at condalezza rice. Allowed into the belly of the beast because she’ll sell away her soul. I bet the original guy had some good principals. And he’s only asking 105 grand in his suit! That’s nuts! I’d ask for a couple million at least!

  3. Blair seemed like a lovely guy but he was a little tentative and lacked the spontaneity of the other guys. He was a little awkward. However, I’d put that down to nerves and give the guy a chance to settle in. I’d definitely be suing for a least a couple of million.
