Netflix has announced that the popular show “Queer Eye” will be coming to an end with its 10th and final season. Production for the final season has already begun in Washington, D.C., marking the end of the streaming service’s longest-running unscripted show. The news was shared on July 9 through a social media post featuring the show’s stars Antoni Porowski, Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness, Karamo Brown, and Jeremiah Brent, who replaced Bobby Berk for the most recent Season 9. The post celebrated the show’s 10 seasons and the Fab Five’s journey, as they gear up for one last season.
Since its launch in 2018, “Queer Eye” has followed five queer style experts as they help individuals transform their lives through lifestyle makeovers. Known as the “Fab Five,” the experts offer guidance on diet, interior design, grooming, fashion, and cultural experiences, catering to individuals with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. The show has traveled to various cities across the country, including Atlanta, Kansas City, Austin, Philadelphia, and Las Vegas.
While the show’s format has brought joy to many viewers, it has not been without its challenges. Bobby Berk left the show following a disagreement with Tan France, the fashion expert. Additionally, there were allegations of a toxic work environment created by Jonathan Van Ness, the hair stylist of the Fab Five. However, Van Ness denied these claims made by production sources in a Rolling Stone article.
The Netflix series is a reboot of the 2003 show “Queer Eye For The Straight Guy,” with a similar format that focuses on uplifting and transforming lives. The original series ran for four seasons and was created by “Queer Eye” executive producer David Collins.
