Netflix will end Queer Eye with Season 10 with production now underway in Washington, D.C.(@QueerEye/X) It marks the end of a series that launched in 2018 and became an instant hit thanks to its emotional makeovers, vulnerable storytelling, and the charisma of the 'Fab Five.'

But there is one key change, Bobby Berk, who handled design duties since the start, left the show after Season 8. He was replaced by Jeremiah Brent in Season 9 and will continue to in Season 10.

Over time, it became more about emotion than appearance. Instead of just style makeovers, episodes explored issues like grief, identity, mental health, and confidence, subjects that hit home for many. It was these personal journeys that drew audiences in, far beyond fashion or food advice. It wasn't just viewers who embraced it. The series picked up 11 Emmys, including six wins in a row for Outstanding Structured Reality Program from 2018 through 2023. As The Hollywood Reporter noted, Queer Eye helped shape Netflix's reality content early on and set the tone for more emotionally rich storytelling in unscripted television.

Veterans pay debts while reality TV elites get pardons
It's disheartening to see veterans penalized for government errors while wealthy tax evaders walk free and secure media deals. Justice should honor sacrifice — yet far too often, it rewards fame and fortune. This is not just mismanagement; it is a systemic betrayal. We must demand a system that truly values those who serve. The Department of Veterans Affairs is reclaiming from disabled veterans billions in alleged overpayments. Many of these veterans were unaware of this until they received debt notices months or even years later. Meanwhile, elites emerge from prison with smiles, stylists and TV contracts. Todd and Julie Chrisley, convicted of millions in tax fraud, were pardoned by President Trump. Days later, news broke that they would return to television with a rebooted reality show produced by Scout Productions. The agents are reportedly tied to Trump-aligned media and political circles, proving once again how power and privilege convert even scandal into profit. And while they sign new deals, veterans remain on hold with the VA Debt Management Center, disputing errors that might cost them rent. Where is our president and commander-in-chief? The numbers don't make sense. The VA has issued $5.1 billion in overpayments since 2021 and is now aggressively trying to recoup those funds from veterans, many disabled, retired or transitioning out of service. IRS data from 2024 shows the wealthiest Americans evade more than $150 billion in taxes each year. And what did Congress do? It rescinded $20.2 billion in IRS funding, cutting the resources needed to pursue those very tax cheats. In other words, the Trump administration is actively targeting working-class veterans and letting billionaires off the hook. Service, sacrifice and integrity are not political ideas, but American ideals. When we demand repayments from disabled veterans while pardoning millionaire fraudsters, we don't just betray those who served, but the very foundation of what America is meant to represent. We don't need more lawmakers, but leaders who remember the purpose and legacy of the oath to defend life, liberty, and the sacred right of free will. This is not a partisan issue, and it's time to call this what it is: moral decay at the highest level. Tim James, a retired U.S. Navy lieutenant, served 22 years honorably — 11 years enlisted and 11 years as a commissioned officer through the Navy's Limited Duty Officer program. He is a volunteer with Veterans For Ethical Leadership and advocates for policies that uphold the dignity of service and expose systemic failures affecting veterans and democracy.
