Did anyone happen to catch the "UK Edition" of Queer Eye the other night? Well, I did, and I was NOT impressed. First of all, the guys really didn't have the chemistry or charisma or even the wit of the American Fab 5. But, the most disappointing part of the show, I found, was the home makeover. Basically, they threw a hammock, a sandbox and some outdoor seating in the backyard. They painted the bedroom, added some cheesy mosquito netting over the bed and framed stupid kids' footprints. And then in the den/playroom/living space... my God. Originally, they had a modern-looking red couch up there. The room wasn't really decorated, but it wasn't "hahhhhhrrrrrrible". Well. They moved the couch to a corner of the room behind a railing where it really can't be accessed and then they threw in 4 beanbag chairs in blue and red. And hung this stupid, blown-up picture of the two stupid kids. And that's it! The UK decorator-guy sure was no Thom Filicia, that's for sure. I could even have done better (and have). They did, however, do a pretty good job on the straight guy himself. He ended up pretty cute in the end.
