In the Netflix Original series, Queer Eye, five gay men help other men who are struggling in many different aspects of their life. In the episode called “Saving Sasquatch”, a man needs help improving his look and his home before hosting a launch party for the app he created. He is also very distant when it comes to sharing his personal life with his friends and family. Each member of the Fab 5 has a different speciality, and they provide the client with the tools and tips they need for success. In this episode, the chef helps him prepare a simple yet elegant meal for the party he is hosting. The home decorator redesigns his house to give it a new energy and make it more welcoming for guests. The hair stylist gives him a new look, while still making him have a unique look. The clothing stylist gives him a new wardrobe to look more professional when he gives presentations. The culturalist attempts to understand why he does not open up to his family and friends and teaches him that being vulnerable can help him to become more confident. Overall, this show tackles issues in life that many people face and it is a different kind of reality TV show that does not focus on negativity, but rather improving the lives of others.
By watching this show, people are influenced because they can relate to the individual being helped in some way and they can probably take the advice of the Fab 5 and apply it to their own life. They also can learn many life lessons from this show. In this specific episode, one of the lessons is that even if someone is not confident and is having problems in personal aspects of their life, they possibly can turn their situation around and make changes that will better themselves. The person must be open to making these changes, though. Another lesson that can be learned from this episode is that being vulnerable is good sometimes and it can show a person’s strength, by being able to display their weaknesses. The problems that the person in each episode face are relevant to many people and they should watch this show because they can see the entire process, from the beginning to when they are explaining what the person is struggling with, then through the changes that are made, and finally the end when the person is transformed. They also give good advice that everyone can take into consideration, such as clothing and personal hygiene tips.
I think you would enjoy this show because it has a very positive attitude and aims to make audiences feel better about themselves, which reminds me of your aim for your students. Also, the jokes that the Fab 5 make throughout the show are similar to ones you make in class. This show is both informative and fun, just like you! If you find time in your busy schedule, I would highly recommend watching Queer Eye.
