Looking for something to watch this New Year’s Eve as you crack the bubbly and indulge in a decadent cheese plate?
Netflix has you covered with the return of the Fab Five for the sixth season of Queer Eye.
Who is in the cast of Queer Eye season six?
The nine-time Emmy Award-winning series returns with the Fab Five in tow.
Tan France is back on fashion, Jonathan Van Ness on grooming, Antoni Porowski on food and wine, Karamo Brown on culture and Bobby Berk on designing entire homes while his co-stars do their things.
Yes, Bobby’s job is undoubtedly the most dramatic of them all. But each team member brings something special to the group as they help to transform the lives of those they meet along the way.
“2020 was a hard year for all of us,” Karamo says in the first-look trailer, with Antoni adding: “It’s been a year of pandemic, so much change.”
“However, it’s a moment to really remind ourselves of what really matters to us, which is each other,” says Tan.
Yeah, we’re already crying. We see many emotional speeches and montages in our future.
Who is the loft dog in Queer Eye season six?
Another important addition to the cast is the new “Queer Eye Loft Dog” AKA Neon, owned by Antoni and his partner Kevin Harrington.
Fans of the show will remember Bruley the Frenchie was a fixture in the earlier seasons of the show and eventually became known as the loft dog. Belonging to a producer, Bruley walked onto set and into our hearts as he joined the Fab Five on the couch over the seasons. Sadly, he passed away in 2019.
In season five the cast were temporarily joined on the couch by Walter, another dog owned by a producer. But now that seat will be filled by Neon (who has an Instagram account called @neonthemutt), much to the delight of the dog-obsessed Antoni.
“No one asked for Neon to join Queer Eye but she decided to anyways and her lewks won’t disappoint,” Antoni wrote on Instagram.
Where is Queer Eye season six filmed?
Y’all we are heading to Texas! The Fab Five will be teaching 10 residents of the lone star state all about self-care and self-worth on a series of emotional journeys.
“We’re in Texas, everybody!” Jonathan exclaims in the trailer, which reveals the group will be encountering people from all walks of life in the new season.
There’s Tammy, a “two step dance instructor at her family-owned honkey-tonk.” And Josh, a cowboy who is “charming and wonderful, but he doesn’t shower half the time.” Not to mention the Navarro High School prom team, who will receive help to pull off the best prom ever.
There’s also a trans person who asks the Fab Five for help in connecting with their father, saying “everybody is saying they’re proud of me, but my dad has never said that.” And a bakery owner who tearfully admits “I fear we’re just one bad month away from closing forever.”
When is the Queer Eye season six release date?
All 10 episodes of the sixth season will drop on the 31st of December 2021.
