DVD Reviews of Queer Eye - The Fab Five Collection
DVD Review: LOVE them LOVE them LOVE them! GREAT guys...
Summary: 5 Stars
These 5 guys are so talented, so funny and so right on the money with respect to each of their specialties, it is mindboggling. I keeep trying to pick a favorite, but I change from one to the other; still, if I did have to pick one, it would have to be Carson because he really makes me laugh. Each one of their straight guy do-overs is unique and has it's own special charm, some more so than others, due to the straight guys themselves; one I really disliked but he was more cordial toward the end when he finally showed a glimmer of gratitude. (The motorcycle guy) Some of the more memorable ones are, the brothers who wrestled constantly and had some rather gross hygiene bad habits which were resolved (and still are, hopefully), the guy who was going overseas to Iraq and leaving his wife and baby, the TX college fraternity and the 2 professional skaters who were breathtaking in their beauty and their skating ability, and their own personal grace. Thom, is a riot but also very caring and moved when someone is truly a survivor, like the guy who had 2 lung transplants...Jai is great with fine tuning the relationships and addresing the more subtle and important aspects to personalizing the couples; Kyan is the grooming guy and a great looking guy as well; he has very useful advice on hair, skin, etc and is a pleasure to watch; Ted is the ultimate gourmand and knows good food, how to prepare it, how to create dishes which are appetizing and attractive, and always original, and he does it with flair; but again, Carson is...well, amazing. He is funny, has great fashion sense and a keen eye; he can walk into any store and find exactly the right clothes for each one of the do-over guys. His wit is lightning fast and he is NEVER at a loss for a superb riposte. EVERY guy is far better off for having spent time with the Fab 5, and 99 percent are accordingly grateful...
The Fab 5 are exactly that; and each one is kind, caring and wonderfully inventive and funny, all combine to create a totally new and innovative show, which should also do much to alleviate homophobia; if you were a homophobe before you saw this show, you certainly won't be after you've seen them in action; they are the premiere ambassadors to the "straight" world...kudos, Fab 5...and thank you for so much enjoyment and fun, and moving, memorable experiences.
Description of Queer Eye - The Fab Five Collection
Studio: Uni Dist Corp (music) Release Date: 08/23/2005Every member of Bravo's stylish quintet gets to shine in The Fab Five Collection. Fashion expert Carson Kressley ("Style"), interior designer Thom Filicia ("Home"), and kitchen connoisseur Ted Allen ("Food and Wine") all get their own double-disc sets, while grooming guru Kyan Douglas and culture maven Jai Rodriguez share one ("Looking Good"). Each features an hour of highlights (clips arranged by theme). In addition, Carson and Thom's sets include bonus outtake DVDs. The other bonus discs are hour-long CDs: the dance-oriented "Deep Collective" for Kyan and Jai and chilled-out "Lounge Essentials" for Ted, whose DVD also includes recipes.
The highlights are instructive and entertaining, but only two full-length episodes are included. Consequently, this collection is likely to be appreciated more by those already familiar with the Emmy Award-winning series since much of the context is gone, i.e. who the subjects are and why they agreed to appear on the program. The first episode, included with Carson?s Style, is "He's a Little Bit Country, She's a Little Bit Overwhelmed," in which the Five "make better" a New Jersey contractor who wants everything to be perfect when he proposes to his girlfriend. (It was actually the fourth episode.) The series debut, "Hair Today, Art Tomorrow: From Mess to Masterpiece," included with Thom's Home, focuses on a New York artist who wants to make a good impression at his first gallery opening. (In both cases, the two hours of material could have easily fit on one disc.)
Overall, The Fab Five Collection is an enjoyable look back at the first season of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Like the show, it?s packed with witty comments and useful tips. Now Bravo just needs to bring the entire series to disc--with commentary from every Fabulous member of the Five. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
