Great. Why are you telling us? You’re preaching to the choir here.

I was with you until you revealed you were a man. We already know everything you said, why not go tell some men in a man’s space? You want a pat on the back for being “exhausted by the conversation,” or something?
My good friend had EB. He died a couple years ago but he lived to be in his 30's. Keeping him in his own apartment and living independently was really hard in terms of resources. The town we live in had fundraisers to pay his rent and bills so that he could live his life as a man on his own. I cooked for him every…
No. This is called being a bully, and it’s not part of French culture to be one. It’s possible to be “direct” without being aggressive, and there’s no excuse for treating your junior staff in such a manner.. The Guardian article states that Rey was repeatedly warned both verbally and in writing. He’s going to lose…
Trust me, most of us Canadians are rolling our eyes pretty hard at this. Yes, the law gives this guy the benefit of the doubt, but the point is that as much we make accommodations for all kinds of cultural differences, belief in our own politeness is a key aspect of OUR culture.
Exactly. You can be direct, honest, and professional without reducing someone to tears. Being a supervisor doesn’t give you the right to be an asshole.
What about the rights of the server he reduced to tears? Don’t they have a right to a non toxic work environment?
Counterpoint: There is no reason to ever put Greek yogurt into guacamole at any time. Same goes for peas in macaroni and cheese.
I saw him in an interview saying that initially, he had planned to make a full multi-course meal with each of the heroes, but then he realized that getting them to cook at all was the real goal. So he downgraded his plans by a lot. I buy that.
Season 2: Antoni’s got a chip (sic) on his shoulder and has something to prove. He kicks in the kitchen door on episode 1, holding a duck: “TONIGHT WE’RE MAKING FOIE GRAS STARTING WITH STEP 1: KNIFING THIS DUCK”. He shows everyone that he knows more about food than just being eye ‘candy’. Fin.
What concept is that?
Am I the only one who wants to see Netflix pick up the first Queer Eye? I know times have changed, but I almost want a peek back to 2003 when the show was revolutionary.
One parent of a child reportedly complained to a teacher that their daughter had become “cheeky and defiant at home after being encouraged to say ‘No!’” To which I say: they should be so lucky!
I wouldn’t want to walk barefoot in the snow or massage someone’s feet, but I would gladly subject my kids to both. Builds character.
He’s also really cute and has a great voice. I vote to keep him on the island. :)
Maaaaan, I definitely think Antoni can cook, the problem is the scope he’s allowed to work in. He’s prepping these guys to have one (1) good dish they can whip out at parties, so I definitely felt like he was stuck in a niche each ep that he didn’t have the chance to break. I also wondered if he put in more work than…
Antoni’s presence on the show is not to show off his expertise cooking skills; it’s to teach the guys he’s working with how to do something practical.
Here’s my thing about Antoni: He has to make food that’s accessible and recognizable to the participants of the show. Yeah, guacamole and hot dogs aren’t that fancy, but I think you have to make food that isn’t intimidating so they’ll want to make it on their own. So yeah, it’s not dazzling food by any means, but it’s…
You perfectly summed up how I felt about this series. Very skeptical at first, cringy “political” moments, and yet I cried so much, and wanted to hug them all by the end. I hope for the next season they also apply their eye to some women too. It feels weird to me in this moment to still focus predominantly on straight…
My partner and I are very much split over Antoni’s cooking (I think he’s a wonderful and charming con man with some legit good tricks up his sleeve), but from my tiny queer corner of the world the Great Debate is over Jonathan. Folks either love the guy or loathe him. I was in the latter camp from the get go. By the…
