Plot Synopsis

The Fab Five, a group of five gay men, makeover the lives of straight men, who need help with fashion, food, grooming, decor, and lifestyle. In each 60-minute episode, one straight slob is made better, as each aspect of his life is transformed by these members of the Fab Five: Ted Allen, who uses his expertise in beverages, meal preparation, and food presentation to help the straight guy improve his skills in the kitchen; Kyan Douglas, the expert on hair, grooming and makeup, who takes the straight guy to salons and stores, giving him an improved look and showing him how to maintain it; Thom Filicia, an expert on interior design and organization, who takes the straight guy shopping for new decor and remodels one room in his home or apartment; Carson Kressley, the show's fashion expert, who takes the straight guy shopping for a new wardrobe, while teaching him how to find clothes better suited for his personality and body type; and Jai Rodriguez, a pop-culture and relationship expert, who works with each straight guy to improve his image and ability to talk with others.

On Sunday, October 20, 2013 at 9pm ET/PT, Bravo premiered QUEER EYE REUNION: 10 YEARS LATER, a one-hour special hosted by Andy Cohen during which the Fab Five, who were united for the first time in seven years, discussed the impact of their trailblazing show on their own lives and on the nation. The cast revealed their favorite make-betters, most challenging straight guys, and if they would return for another season of QUEER EYE. Plus, they revealed who came out to his family as a result of the show, which cast members shared a kiss, and who was the biggest diva.
