Queer Eye for the Straight Guy (1 Viewer)

[Chris Quinn]

Zimmerman comes across as a bit of a country bumpkin.

Did you miss that he grew up in Alabama. How do you get a straight red-neck figure skater?

 

[Mikel_Cooperman]

Except the the toenails, I think he's outgrown the Country Bumpkin.

Thank god for Tivo and freeze frame!

I love the episodes where there is a strong romantic tinge and the restyled guy is great "eye candy."

Both John Bargeman (sp?),"The Country Guy" who proposed on the show, and John Zimmerman are very attractive and their evenings with their wives (future or otherwise) were very romantic.

The shot of Carson feeling Zimmerman's thigh in the dressing room because it was hairless was just this side of softporn.

I wonder if the QEftSG ratings rise as our nether regions do.


While we're chatting, I have to say why Kian is probably the cutest of the Fab5, Ted is the one that gets my motor running...something about the downplayed sexuality and the glasses. I loved it when Carson shot the lotion all over him on accident: great one liner.

Also, I could swear the furniture guy on the this "Skater" episode is the main puppeteer in that Broadway show with the gay puppets...

Anyone know?

Just as an update, Zimmerman and his figure staking partner are going to be on the Today Show
tomorrow morning (3/12/2004).

Also, for more photos, including modelling photos and some pictures from Sylvia and John's wedding, go here:

They do make a great pair.

Thanks for the link Mark. Nice taste!

 

[Ted Lee]

okay, we finally get some asians on the show and they both chunk!

not a bad show, but this guy didn't really have me rooting for him in any way or shape. i did think it was funny to see the way he was freaking out when they trashed his apartment. plus he totally bombed the cooking.

and wtf was up with that bitch? hasn't that dude ever heard of a crate.

and yes, i know of which bitch i'm speaking of...

oh well....at least he got a plasma out of it.

I missed the first 10 minutes or so. My wife was wondering why they didn't do anything with his hair.

What a disaster. His GF...what's up with her? She's more than high maintenence. High maintenence w/ a bad attitude. Nothing worse. Notice she didn't get any interview time like other GFs? Dump her.

Funny episode though with all of his mishaps.

His GF...what's up with her?

Yeah, he could do better. There's no reason he should have to put up with that bitch.

I don't remember anything being said about his hair. It wasn't as bad to begin with as some are, though.

 

[Malcolm R]

I couldn't figure out what he sees in that girl either. What a waste of his time and effort.

 

[Ted Lee]

okay, so anyone remember the episode with the dude who had the girlfriend that everyone ripped on? something about "a hooker in brooklyn needs her boots back" -- was it the guy that lived at the beach?

anyway, which was worse?

hooker-boots or asian-chick? my vote is asian chick ... at least hooker-boots had a good attitude.

 

[MattGentry]

Hey, all I'm glad for is that Jai was beneficial to this episode. Usually he just goes with "here's some tickets to a show, and pay attention to the girl." Here, with the dog training, he did something that will help the guy in the long run.

I certainly enjoyed the episode.

 

[Mark-W]

Good episode, and the first one where the Fab 5 really had nothing good to say about the GF...I gotta wonder how she feels seeing herself criticized on the airwavesL: she is high-maitenance, and something tells me, a bit of drama queen.

Ugh.

Still great to watch a trainwrek every now and then on this show.
