The Netflix show “Queer Eye”, a reboot of the show “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” has formed a huge fanbase around the world since its start in 2018. The show focuses on giving worthy candidates lifestyle makeovers to boost their confidence and give them a better outlook on life. Back in August, everyone in the Philly area were enthusiastic to see and hear that Queer Eye would be filmed in the City of Brotherly Love for season five. Now, after months of anticipation, Netflix announced the release date for the newest season, coming June 5th!
The newest season of Queer Eye is not only great because it takes place in our beloved Philly, but its also special because its the longest season of the show yet with a whopping 10 episodes! All of the members of the Fab Five were living it up while filming in the city last summer, and Netflix even found a fun way to promote the season, tweeting in part, “Who’s ready for the season of brotherly love?!?!”
