From CNN.com:
LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- Cable network Comedy Central is planning to turn the make-over hit "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" upside down with a new show called "Straight Plan for the Gay Man." My thoughts as well

btw ....
"OEFTSG" started in the UK last Thursday !! so it's the second episode tonight !!!
it was quite enjoyable but for some reason i thought the 5 guy's might have been more "over the top" !!!
they seemed quite "mild" !!!
perhaps it because we have Graham Norton here, and he's pretty "graphic" and rude !!!
i thought they may have been a bit more like that ....

there are a few choice lines in the series, but not as many as Graham makes.
in one episode, Carson is going through the wardrobe and picks up a pair of boxers and says "There must have been an accident because I see skid marks"

Oh my good gods, buggery fuck and other such expletives. Chris just got Sky the other week and this weekend I watched an episode of QEFTSG. Jesus wept but it's awful. These are supposed to be lifestyle experts? They were absolutely bloody awful. Worst of all has to be the 'fashion expert' (and surely that's meant ironically. Please tell me it is). Not only does he have the most godsawful bleach blonde, eigthies, scraggy hair-do but he can't seem to dress himself let alone anyone else. The guy they were making over was in the clothes shop and they were supposedly showing him which tie goes with which shirt. So they picked out a pretty nasty grey checked tie. And the shirt to go with it? A horrible yellow striped thing. Because apparently stripes and checks go really well together. What? WHAT!!!???!!! No they sodding well don't. They were hideous on their own, together they looked like some kind of vicious assault on the eyeballs. And because this poor guy was being completely torn down by this fashion disaster he went along with it. Yuk, yuk, yuk. See, now I love Trinny and Susannah on What Not To Wear (I know they've remade it for the US market with different presenters, but Trinny and Susannah are the original and best). They get very cross, they can be really, really vicious sometimes but they're also great. They don't get people to just buy fashion clothes or tell them what other people are wearing. They tell them how to dress best for their body shape. They don't think fat is bad, they don't think masculine girls or fem boys are awful, they don't try and remove peoples individuality, they just show people how they can look good. And apart from the make-up people who always seem to layer it on with a trowel the results are always great. Real, everyday clothes, work clothes, party clothes. The whole lot. A proper, complete, workable wardrobe. That's what a make-over should be. Bringing out the best in people, not telling them how everyone else dresses and what they must do and turning them into clones. Queer Eye seems to set out with this concept of what 'classy' is and tries to mold everyone into it. Hate it, hate it, hate it. It's a concept that I find intensly annoying and verging on the offensive. How dare someone tell you how you should live your life or try and change who you are? It's a fine line to walk but while Trinny and Susannah bring out the best in people Queer Eye just seems to want to homogenise everything with the gimmick that the people doing it are queens who clearly don't have a clue themselves. Grrr. OK, rant over, I'll go and calm down now. 
Truth and Justice shall Prevail!

How dare someone tell you how you should live your life or try and change who you are? Umm you do know that the subjects ask for a lifestyle makeover right? Forget it...your own words betray you here. Probably drunk. Or at least completely out of it. <------ I want to believe.
