Five seasons after kicking off a male grooming revolution—and spurring untold amounts of hair gel sales - Queer Eye's Fab Five are officially disbanding. The Fab Five Kyan Douglas, Thom Filicia, Ted Allen, Carson Kressley and Jai Rodriguez made their prime-time debut on July 15, 2003, and quickly manscaped their way into the heart of both gay and straight, men and women with world-wide success.
Bravo made the announcement on Friday that this summer's 10-episode run will be the series' last. "We proudly watched as viewers embraced the series that really helped open the closet doors on gays and their presence on television and in popular culture," Frances Berwick, Bravo's VP of programming and production, said in announcing the show's end.

I'm sorry to see it go but 5 seasons is a pretty good run. This show WILL be greatly missed. These guys did everything with a lot of humor along with heart.

That's a pity. They had made it to over here (France) and there was even a local version with pretty much look alike cute French guys. So I guess if not the original, at least some local versions will survive. Well done to whoever invented this (as a matter of interest, did this run on mainstream tv? or on some "cultural" or gay channel?)
