Karamo Brown Discusses "Queer Eye" Ending After the Final Season

karamo brown shares his thoughts on "queer eye's" final season

Karamo Brown, one part wisdom, one part flair in Netflix's beloved "Queer Eye" Fab Five, recently opened up about why this iconic show has decided its tenth season will be its last. The series, known far and wide (or at least wherever Netflix reaches) has made its home in viewers' hearts with its inspiring tales. And now, it's set on wrapping up its decade-long journey in Washington, D.C.

From its very first episode, "Queer Eye" has had a knack—a magical knack—for pulling viewers in, thanks in no small part, I might add, due those fabulous Fab Five: grooming extraordinaire Jonathan Van Ness, food maestro Antoni Porowski, culture guru Karamo Brown himself, fashion savant Tan France, and design genius Bobby Berk. Together, they've transformed countless lives—not just in a superficial makeover sense, but on a genuinely human one too.

In season nine, fans witnessed a new face: Jeremiah Brent took over interior design duties following Bobby Berk's exit. Joining forces with Jonathan, Antoni, Karamo, and Tan, Jeremiah promises that their final season will be truly unforgettable.

While fans may be sad, it's understandable—the Fab Five are, too. But according Karamo, now's simply that time. He went on a morning show recently and gave some insight:

"Helping people was always at our core," Brown explained. "Through all life's ups and downs, 'Queer Eye' focused on spreading positivity. It mirrors my goals on my talk show, which makes saying goodbye a little easier."

Brown also took a moment in his interview spotlight (deservedly won, thanks very much) and shared how proud he was about their Emmy win, noting it as a testament how deeply their mission resonated.

As he looked back over this rollercoaster ride, Brown reflected, "Ten seasons—time flies, huh? We were in such different places back then. Jonathan was in his twenties, and most us just hitting our thirties."

He continued, "Ending now feels right. It's not turning away from 'Queer Eye,' it more about facing forward toward new adventures."

With eager anticipation buzzing, seasons one through nine are ready and waiting on Netflix. No word yet on when those final episodes drop, but fans can hardly wait.

Beyond simple entertainment, "Queer Eye" has built bridges, fostering understanding and acceptance. Its legacy? Oh, that'll linger long after that final bow.

As we gear up farewell, a mighty thank you's due. To our Fab Five: your positivity had a ripple effect that made all difference, creating a show that's truly one-for-the-books.
