Netflix has recently revealed that the popular reality series, Queer Eye, will be coming to an end after its upcoming tenth season. The streaming giant announced the news along with a photo featuring the show’s beloved stars: Jonathan Van Ness, Tan France, Antoni Porowski, Jeremiah Brent, and Karamo Brown. The caption read, “10 seasons. Fab Five. One last go ‘round.”
Filming for the final season has already commenced in Washington, D.C., as confirmed in a press release from Netflix. The forthcoming season promises to deliver “one last round of unforgettable makeovers and heartfelt transformations” while also honouring the show’s influence and celebrating heroes from the nation’s capital.
The Fab Five, comprising of the show’s dynamic personalities, took to social media to express their emotions regarding the impending conclusion of Queer Eye. Tan France, in an emotional Instagram post, reflected on the journey, stating, “It’s been a long, beautiful journey we’ve been on, and I truly appreciate all of the love and support for our little show.” France’s sentiments were echoed by his co-star, Jonathan Van Ness, who shared his excitement for the final season, expressing anticipation for what the future holds.
Queer Eye has had a successful run, becoming Netflix’s longest-running unscripted series and earning an impressive 37 Emmy nominations and 11 wins since its inception in February 2018. With a record-setting six consecutive wins in the Outstanding Structured Reality Program category, the show has garnered critical acclaim and accolades, including Critics’ Choice Real TV Awards and a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Reality Program.
Despite the show’s immense popularity and acclaim, one of the original cast members, Bobby Berk, bid farewell to the series after season 8. In November 2023, Berk announced his departure in a heartfelt letter to the Queer Eye community, citing it as a necessary decision for his personal growth and future endeavours. Although Berk decided to part ways with the show, he remains on amicable terms with his co-stars and is actively working on various projects and initiatives.
Following Berk’s exit, Jeremiah Brent, known for his appearances on HGTV, was introduced as his replacement in February 2024. As Queer Eye’s legacy continues, fans can still enjoy the show’s uplifting and transformative episodes on Netflix.
As viewers prepare to bid adieu to the Fab Five and their heartwarming makeovers, the final season of Queer Eye is expected to be a poignant and memorable conclusion to a groundbreaking series that has touched the lives of many.
It remains to be seen when the tenth season of Queer Eye will premiere on Netflix, but anticipation is already building among fans eager to witness the emotional and inspiring moments that have defined the show’s remarkable journey.
The legacy of Queer Eye will undoubtedly endure beyond its final season, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of viewers and showcasing the power of acceptance, transformation, and genuine human connections.
