Remember that "transform straight man" reality show?
Because it was too hot, Netflix frequently renewed the show, producing 5 seasons + a special episode in just three years.
Now, here it is again —
The sixth season of "Pink Rescue"
Queer Eye
Since the first season of 2018 was broadcast, word of mouth has never fallen off the altar, and Douban has a minimum score of 9.3.
Not only that, but it also won three awards at the 70th Emmy Awards (Best Organized Reality Show, Best Organized Reality Tv Editing Award, best Organized Reality Show Casting Award).
Recently the sixth season returned, not many people know, the current Douban score of 9.2.
It's a resurrected reality show that was originally "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, which was viewed on Bravo tv in 2003."
It tells the story of 5 exquisite gays who transform straight men from the aspects of dress, makeup, hair, diet, home decoration and social interaction.
(Original Five Queer)
As can be seen from the name of the show, the characters of the original version are only straight men, and the new version is more than that.
Regardless of gender, race, or nationality, it has the opportunity to be selected by the program team to receive help from the "Shining Five".
Let the guests become better versions of themselves from the inside out!
The first is tan françois, the eyelashes monster in charge of the costume.
He is a well-known British costume designer, and each time he will adapt it to the style and personality of the guests, according to local conditions.
When the other person says, I'm not good looking enough! I'm not in shape!
He would listen carefully and look at the other person and tell him that you can look good now.
When he gave advice to the coming-out pastor who wanted to become a community leader, he didn't directly tell him what he should choose.
Instead, ask him first: "When you finish your work and have a few minutes to prepare, what will you wear?" ”
When the other party said the cargo shorts that Tan rejected in his heart, he did not directly criticize, but patiently analyzed the reasons for the other party's choice.
Then I said what I thought of the transformation and why I chose this clothing store!
When her husband suffers from frostbite and his mother, who cares for her husband and feeds three daughters, wants to make herself beautiful with pompous clothes, he asks her, "Do you think you're pretty?" ”
When the other party said that he felt sloppy, Tan did not answer directly, but told her:
"To be honest, the clothes in your closet don't fit you, so you think you're sloppy and outdated because that's not your style."
This is where he is most gentle, thinking about the other person's style, and then giving the most appropriate advice and transformation.
Next up is Tony's teacher, who can praise the rainbow, Jonathan van Nice, who is in charge of beauty salons.
Even if you have a small belly, you must show your waist and be confident.
When the fivesome walked into the pastor's house and saw the exposed walls and the moldy and tattered ceiling, Sister Joe would say, "I love bare bricks, and it gives me the atmosphere of Game of The Brave." ”
But this is not to say that he endorses this way of life, rather, it is said to make it easier for pastors to accept the improvements they propose.
He can always find the advantages that most people ignore, and he does not hesitate to tell the other party in time and praise them.
When Tom, who has lupus erythematosus on his face and an opening that "ugliness is irreparable", is not confident, Sister Joe will say, "Confidence is sexy." ”
If Sister Joe is the most concave cute, then Anthony Porovsky, who is responsible for her appearance, is a charming little angel.
He's a food and cocktail expert, making cooking simple, warm and pleasing to the eye.
Because he was so good that the little girl said he was her boyfriend.
When he takes Jody, who is eager to be a more beautiful woman and eager to contact a richer life, to a high-end restaurant,
Jody feels that his earthiness is out of place here, and he will read it warmly from another angle.
Then there's the hands-on ability to go against the sky, and the weekly model is Bobby Burke.
He owns his own clothing brand, Bobby Berk Home, which is responsible for interior design.
His transformed room is a master-level plastic surgery, not to mention the all-round face change, the key is so just right every time, breathtaking.

His evaluation of the Chinese version of "Pink Rescue Soldier" also caused a wave of hot reviews.
It also makes us understand that the core of this show is inclusion, which is to break the original stereotypes, encourage guests to be brave, and improve their self-esteem, self-love and self-confidence.
After everything is prepared, there is Karamo Brown, who specializes in psychological distress, is responsible for troubleshooting problems, and interpersonal social interaction.
Although reality TV shows will try their best to have a happy ending for visual effects, this kind of heart-warming variety show is even more so.
But here there is a core difference.
When the 1.9-meter-tall dog groomer has always had a mustard due to the betrayal of the male ticket, although the man in front of the camera promised to reform himself, Caramo still gave the guests actual advice.
For us in front of the screen, the protagonist is the "Shining Five"; for them, the center is every ordinary person, the problem they encounter.
The group of five are experts in various fields, but they do not look down at it at all, but really enter the lives of every ordinary person.
When Tan transforms his tired dad into a sunny and handsome hip dad.
According to the actual situation, he did not choose a private clothing store, but chose a cheap supermarket.
And even when shopping in hypermarkets, he is equally patient and thoughtful in his advice on how to match proper and layered clothes without showing any disdain.
In order to make Arian, a strange roommate who is a liar, unable to graduate from college, and spends his days in a rental house, get out of his comfort zone, the fivesome breaks his heart.
Caramo, who is in charge of psychology, takes him into a lie detector center, but when the final results are revealed, he tears up the answer in order to preserve dignity for Arian.
When the five-person group commented on the DJ in the room, the guest said that he needed a wife, and here the five-person group immediately retorted, directly asking him to apologize in front of the camera.
In these transformations, you will see that you will make yourself better, live a more refined life, dress yourself not only for women or special people, and makeup will not make straight men disgusting.
As the show says: "Self-care and beauty salons are not exclusive to femininity or masculinity, and self-grooming does not mean that you are a womanizer, all this only means that you have requirements for your quality of life." 」 ”
You will find that the charm of people is not to look at the face, or even talent, but to style and aura.
All the transformations made by the fivesome are based on this.
Aura comes from self-confidence, and style comes from self-knowledge.
At this point, your self-confidence is not arrogant or narcissistic, and you don't need outside praise to last, and you don't have to please anyone who you are afraid of offending.
Each time the renovation, the group of five is based on the individual style of the guests, allowing them to initially see their own style.
Not for a prettier, more handsome, more stylish, but a style of its own.
Because style is beyond beauty, and beauty is pleasant, what makes people happy is inevitably pleasing to most people.
Style is not flattery, it comes from deep self-awareness and recognition, knowing what is suitable for oneself, and accepting and loving such a self, and expressing such a self to the outside world without shame or inferiority.
Just like the mother who wants to pay attention to and care about herself a little more, and finally chooses to wear a mustard green dress with shiny earrings, if she is in China, she will definitely evaluate her fat figure, and should not wear it like this.
But at this moment her whole state makes you feel that she is super beautiful!
Every episode, every makeover, we believe in front of the screen that this change is not their end, but their beginning.
They will start from this small change and become a better and better version of themselves!
