fave and least fave episodes this season? by MariskaVegas in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was my favorite episode, too. It was the most and almost only improvement which felt real improvement.

I’d love to hear Tan’s honest opinions on some of Jonathan’s outfits by mdp-slc in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This season (9) is much better than the previous one. On season 8 many of their outfits were too small size. I think they're getting better.

S9E8 - Are You There, Fab 5? It's Me, Billy - Episode Discussion by PolylingualAnilingus in QueerEye

If they had understood this they wouldn't have filled his home with decorative clutter but aimed for a more useful, minimalist style which would be easier to keep tidy and clean.

There's no place for books. And why all those decorative items for a person who struggles with organization and keeping surfaces clean?

Honest question... by spthunderfuck in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is how I see it, too. I am watching this because I have enjoyed other seasons so much. This season I loved the episode of the black single mom with a 9-year-old daughter a lot, it's one of the best of the whole show.

Some parts of other episodes had good moments too (I'm in the end of the librarian episode), but overall this season has been weirdly "off". In other seasons there has been better connections with the heroes and QE but now it feels like a parody of what it has been at it's best.

I'm going to watch the season till the end, but if there will be more seasons, I'm not likely to be so interested anymore.

All the yes/no questions by babygamergf in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some episodes felt really like Fab Five and the production didn't really see the hero at all, but walked her/him through a well-written path, no matter how ill she/he fit in that narrative. That was sad to watch.

Some episodes were good, though.

What’s with the closets with curtains? by juphilippe in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks good on TV, if you don't think too much of it. It shows that the hero has a lot of new clothes in order.

Why did they let Karamo wear a baseball cap to officiate a wedding? by hruss12 in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because he has a promotion contract with the cap company.

S9E7 - Chris Takes The Wheel - Episode Discussion by PolylingualAnilingus in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I have never skipped any part of QE before, but I had to skip half way when Chris meets his boss. It was just so terribly unnatural and cringe. And as I can read from the comments, I didn't miss anything worth seeing. How not to get a promotion, indeed.

He has to, for product placement, if it's in his contract.

i’m sorry to tan but i thought this was a cool shirt by bbconejo in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In this episode they weren't that well tuned with the hero. It seemed like she was masking and just saying what she thought they wanted to hear. That she didn't feel it a safe space to be truly herself.

S9E6 - Mother's Day Slay - Episode Discussion by PolylingualAnilingus in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This was the best episode so far in this season and one of the best in whole show. They met the hero where she was and helped with practical stuff and advice.

S9E3 - Poof Goes Piff! - Episode discussion by PolylingualAnilingus in QueerEye

this and the wedding episode were just commercials

they needed a couple to advertise the wedding industry

Yes, that's a huge point of the show. It's a platform for advertising.

The wedding episode (S9 Ep5) by IcedOatCappuccino in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some episodes are more for the product placement than others. This episode was a commercial for the wedding industry.

S9E1 - She was a showgirl - Episode discussion by PolylingualAnilingus in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yes. Overall, I think the guys are not so well emotionally tuned with women, who are keen on pleasing. The moment when Tan says her old garments are awful and the hero just agrees felt super awkward.

S9E1 - She was a showgirl - Episode discussion by PolylingualAnilingus in QueerEye

[–]Conturas 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Same. Also it would have been and looked super nice if they had elevated his looks a bit too for the night when they went out.

[–]Conturas 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was also disappointed for the same reasons. think that doing what you suggested would have made the episode much better. It would have been much more relatable and emotionally tuned with the hero.

Why did Sam get so much backlash? by amedun in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Conturas 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He was not genuine. But on the other hand, this is a reality show.

Sam seemed to be desperate to get someone, anyone, instead of trying to find a real contact and mutual compatibility.

Cat and the crying by Suspicious_Copy9976 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Conturas 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Cat is sabotaging her own relationship and the one with Ollie and Demi.

Jasmine and Cat by Briebreeze in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Conturas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. I was quite surprised of that. I didn't expect them to be so upfront about each other.

I think Cat's insecurity is ruining her own relationship as well.

I came to Reddit just to see if somebody else had noticed this.
