Queer Eye For The Straight Guy - Tuesdays @ 10pm/9c on Bravo
Five gay men, out to make over the world — one straight guy at time. 
They are the Fab Five: an elite team of gay men who have dedicated their lives to extolling the simple virtues of style, taste and class. Each week their mission is to transform a style-deficient and culture-deprived straight man from drab to fab in each of their respective categories: fashion, food and wine, interior design, grooming and culture.

It's a full lifestyle make-over — a make better show where straight guys turn in their pleats for flat fronts, learn about wines that don’t come in a jug and come to understand why hand soap is not a good shampoo (and vice versa). When the journey is done, a freshly scrubbed, newly enlightened, ultra hip man emerges.
Queer Eye for the Straight Guy is produced by Scout Productions. The executive producers are David Collins and Michael Williams for Scout, and Francis Berwick, Amy Introcaso-Davis and Christian Barcellos for Bravo. The co-executive producer is David Metzler. The series was created by David Collins, a gay man, and developed by David Metzler, a straight man — a union of sensibilities that gives the show its depth, humor and edge.

Episode 101: HAIR TODAY, ART TOMORROW
Name: Brian "Butch" Schepel
Age: 35
Height: 6'
Weight: 210 lbs (but just lost 15 lbs)
Status: Single
Occupation: Carpenter/Set Builder
Category: Struggling Artist Straight Guy
Location: Hell's Kitchen, New York City
Event: Presenting his art in an art gallery
Brian "Butch" Schepel paints beautiful paintings, but his self-portrait looks more like a mug shot. He's got ratty, long hair, wears baggy, paint-covered clothing and lives in an apartment littered with old paintings, dirty laundry and complete clutter. The "struggling artist" lifestyle isn't exactly getting women in line to date this aspiring Picasso. Brian means well, but can't seem to get it together. The Fab Five's mission: get this artist presentable for his first art gallery showing by bringing out the remarkable personality beneath his gruff exterior.
PROBLEM AREAS
…his hair has not been cut in nine years.
…his wardrobe consists mostly of paint-splattered overalls.
…his best piece of furniture is a broken-down futon.
…his impressive artwork is hidden throughout his cluttered apartment
…his refrigerator is not only empty, but you can barely open it in his tiny kitchen
"God forbid you get drunk in [Butch's] place, 'cause you're gonna bang your head off something." — His Friend
