TOWN AND COME KNOCKING ON THE
DOOR, I KNOW THEY HAVE A
PRECONCEIVED EDD NOTION OF WHAT
THEY’RE GETTING.
THEY’RE GETTING. BUT WHEN YOU POP IN, TELL US
WHAT HAPPENS.
WHAT HAPPENS. >> A LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T KNOW
WHO WE ARE.
WE PICKED HEROES WHO HAVE NO
IDEA WHAT THE FAB FIVE OR "QUEER
EYE" IS AND JUST WANTING HELP.

VERY RECEPTIVE. >> I REMEMBER THE FIRST
INCARNATION OF THE SHOW 15 YEARS
AGO, IT WAS SO SUCCESSFUL.
AND TO TAKE IT ON AND SAY, WE’RE
GOING TO REDO IT, MUST HAVE BEEN
EXCITING AND INTIMIDATING.
>> IT WAS A LEGACY SHOW.
THE FACT IT WAS SUCCESSFUL BACK
IN THE DAY WAS INTIMIDATING FOR
ALL OF US.

OF THE ORIGINAL SHOW, WE WANTED
TO MAKE IT OUR SHOW.
WE HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB OF
MAKING IT OUR OWN.

INTO THE HEART OF AMERICA.

THINK YOU CHANGED SOME MINDS?

IT WAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO FOCUS
ON QUALITY CONVERSATIONS AND NOT
THINK OF THE PUBLIC STUFF ALL
THE TIME.

GOING TO LOOK GOOD ON YOU.
IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY
YOU’RE SPENDING.
YOU’RE SPENDING. AL DID A GREAT JOB OF MAKING

CRY, MEN AND WOMEN.
>> WHEN THE ALARM WENT OFF, I
CRIED.
CRIED. >> WHAT ABOUT KITCHEN TOUGH?
>> I THINK EVERYONE HAS SALT AND
PEPPER ON THE TABLE.
MY EQUIVALENT IS LEMONS.

ROAST.
ROAST. >> JONATHAN, HOW ABOUT HAIR?
HOW ABOUT GUYS LIKE ME WATCHING,
KEEPING A NICE SHINE.

WINTER GREEN FERRYER IF FARRIES
ON YOUR NECK.

>> WHERE SHOULD I SEND MONEY AT
HOME?
HOME? BEDDING.
BEDDING. YOU SPEND 30% OF YOUR LIFE IN
BEDDING.
BEDDING. YOU NEED TO WAKE UP FEELING LIKE
YOU’RE IN A HOTEL AND GO TO
SLEEP RELAXED.
SLEEP RELAXED. WHEN YOU WAKE UP WITH SCRATCHY
SHEETS.
SHEETS. >> I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS
THREAD COUNT.
THREAD COUNT. >> IT’S ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE
