Hi! Like what the fan said in the post, I really wish you fab guys'll come to my country. Come to Canada!!! I'm sure a lot of Canadians'll love to have you there. Some guys here really need to get a make-over. LOL And I wonder if you also want to do a make-over for girls too? It would be wonderful to see some girls on your TV show. In fact, a lot of girls just have the same problem like guys, just not as messy as them though. And I'm sure a lot of their partners or boyfriends want to invite you to their houses too!

I'm sorry the new QE calendar doesn't show the birthdates for the Fab 5...does anyone out there know this info?
P.S. I'm a straight woman and he's a gay man.....but Thom in that cop uniform on the John V. episode fulfilled every fantasy I've ever had. Go figure.

My favorite episode is the one featuring John Bargeman. I have watched that episode over and over because it's/he's so romantic. I bet there are a lot of women out there who'd like a man like John in their lives. Tina is so lucky.
I'd like Queer Eye to feature an update on John and Tina.

Is this a good place for questions or advice? Maybe a new section could be started.
My question involves leather. Before you get too excited i'm talking jackets, stores, and prices.
I was wondering if the 5 or moderator new of where to buy stylish but moderately prices leather jackets. I am a teacher of modest income and every jacket i've fallen in love with was only interested in how much I make a year. For some reason every jacket I consider stylish is way out of my price range.
I saw this great collarless number with the snap (what i lke to call the "members only" style collar) with some wonderful coloration (dye?) that made the jacket look distressed. Where can I find another jacket of similar syle but not break the bank.
Help Fab 5! You're my only hope.

It'll be cool for the Fab Five to come down here in San Diego. I will show Carson some of the clothing stores, Thom some of the furniture store, Kyan either A Robert Cromeans Salon or Salon Tonic, Ted the Great News kitchen utensil shop/curlinary school in Pacific Beach, and Jai...I'll think of something.

Season 1 is being shown on Living TV here in the UK - every Thursday nite @ 9! Right now we're on like episode 3 - the second Blair one (Blair Boone was the guy before Jai, in case anyone didn't know). But they're showing them in a weird order so the first one two weeks ago did have Jai in it.
I wish they'd put Queer Eye on Channel 4 or something tho, so more people could watch it... but apparently it's a huuuuuuge success so far {~*~} The Fab 5 should SO do the V GRAHAM NORTON show over here! It would be SO freaking AMUSING lol. Hehe I love Queer Eye ^ ^ Just finished listening to my lil audio track of the episode with the singer guy Vinnie - Jai and Ted were too adorable helping the guy with his nerves and his voice and buying herbal teas and stuff. Jai was fab singing the first couple of lines of Vinnie's song (he has such a gorgeous voice!)
Grrr I'm trying to persuade my parents to let me fly over to NYC for like 2 days so I can go to the Children of Eden concert on World AIDS Day - Jai's gonna sing! So far no luck tho... hehe like it's EVER gonna happen, but I guess a girl can dream {~*~} But I'm so mad I missed him in Zanna, Don't! I have the soundtrack and it's AMAZING! {~*~}

Those guys are the epitomy of gay!!!!! Everything that you see in gay or lesbian people is shown tastefully in these guys!!!!! I am glued to the tube to see what they do next!!!! Whoever thought of this show..........PURE GENIUS!!!!!!! Keep it up!!!!!

In the Andrew L. episode, Carson recommends Wilson Leathers (www.wilsonsleathers.com). He said they have jackets in the $100 to $200 range. I found some in the $200 to $300 range, which is still great for the look and the leather.

There's Ted's Queer Eye book as well... but that's it. I totally agree - there is such a huuuuuge market for Queer Eye stuff! Lifesize cutouts would sell wicked well, I bet... *dreams*... mmmmmmmmmmmm!
*ahem* Back to reality. Ted's aprons would be really popular I think - and I hope they bring out a VHS/DVD collection of season 1 soon. Cuz the first season of W&G only just came out on DVD this year so I hope we don't have to wait that long.

I thought I read that Kyan was dating one of the actors from "Queer as Folk" on Showtime. As a straight woman who thinks Kyan is hot, hot, hot, I'd love to have him switch gears, but that's a different story...;^)

Don't think Kyan and Thom are a couple. In a recent issue of Advocate Magazine, with the Fab 5 on the cover (Sept 9, 2003), the story specifically stated Ted was the only "Coupled" member of the Fab 5, recently celebrating 10 YEARS with his lover! Congrats Ted!!

My boyfriend and I both LOVE this show, but I would love to suggest that the Fab 5 do a special series on Queer Eye For The QUEER Guy, because my boyfriend definitely needs their help! LOL! He's orginally from Michigans Upper Pennisula, and shows it in every way! In the way he dresses, buys clothes at Thrift stores and is way too consumed in the 70s look! Taste in decor (I have like 10 lava lamps randomly placed around my house, ugh), as well as his mannerisms.
I have to say that I can be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my home. I'm very much into cooking, homekeeping and organization, and don't get me wrong, I LOVE my boyfriend dearly, but it's like Martha Stewart married Al Bundy!

Hi,
I've just started watching the Fab 5 on UKLiving and I'm hooked!!!!!!!! And yes if only they could come to the UK and go on the Graham Norton Show. That would be the best ever! I'd beg, steal or borrow to get tickets to the show.
Think the shows great and I'm in love with all of them, just a shame I'm not a guy. Oh well perhaps they could come to the UK and work their magic on my boyfriend.

First, I'd like to say that the new website for the Fab 5 is absolutely FABulous. Great fun and lots of info. I see great merchandise potential here for all of us fans - so Fab 5, strut your stuff and make us shop till we drop! Personal appearances around the country would be great, too. EVERYONE wants to meet you guys. There was a discussion on a morning show the other day (won't mention the network) about what famous person you would most like to have to dinner. I immediately thought of the Fab 5 and what incredible, enlightening fun that would be. So I vote for a "Win A Dinner With The Fab 5 Contest."
Keep up the great work guys, this lady in Indy loves you!

I want to say that I just love the fab five. Ever since I discovered the show, I can't stop watching it, and my fiancee and our 4 boys watch it to. You give us great ideas for our house, and look better. I give my fiancee facials and he never believed that men did it until your show. I have my own fab five, but they are all straight. But you all are better put together, i will never get mine to look that good. You all should come down to El Paso, TX,

When I first started to drink wine, here's the progression I followed and informal polling seems to suggest it's that way for a lot of wine newbies. Start off with some soft, fuity whites, then you can progress to some dry whites, then fruity reds and finally, dry reds. Since it IS getting into the colder months (don't know where you live), if you want to START with a red and you don't often drink wine, I would suggest a grenache/shiraz (or syrah--same thing) blend. They are very full bodied and kind of fruity. Drinking aR osemont Estates right now. That's the other thing I'd say. You do NOT have to spend 30 or 40 dollars on a great bottle of wine. You don't even have to spend 20. Australia is one of the many places that has very inexpensive and delicious wines. If you have an "end of bin" store in your area or a cut rate liquor store, go there and ask the employees for some recommendations. I would also recommend Wine Spectator magazine for great suggestions on highly rated inexpensive wines. Good luck!

Yeah, but I dont think a graphic tee would be "Carson-approved." Remember: they are out to make the world a more fashionable place, not vice versa. I mean, I might be tempted to buy a huge plastic-framed poster, but Thom would just throw it out on the front lawn if he were to ever come over. Hahah.

I would say try something like a Riesling or a Zinfandel first. You could always try a flavored wine like Arbor Mist (my cousin swears by it). I myself really don't care for wine and would rather drink something more palatable when I am out. If you're looking for a classy drink try a martini... gin or vodka... there are many variations and flavors and you'll probably find something you like (think Chocolate Martini -- yum).

Oh I love Thom so much, talking about fantasies, oh my God, the things I would do to that man, Once he goes cat, he'd never go back.
