5 Fabulous Reasons We Need 'Queer Eye' Season 2

"Can you believe?" - Johnathan Van Ness

So full disclaimer, I never watched the original Queer Eye show, but I can tell you with full confidence that it did the original justice. This show is so expansive and open-minded and just plain groundbreaking. Every episode leaves you smiling and hoping another one was just around the corner, but to my dismay, the season had to end. So the following is my petition for why Queer Eye needs a second season with more episodes.

1. Their impact.

By what I've read, the original Queer Eye was quite controversial when it came out (and that was only about 10 years ago), but one could argue being in the LGBTQIA+ community is more widely accepted now. However, there is still a stigma, and the Fab 5 do NOT shy away from combating that stigma onscreen.

2. They have the tough conversations.

One of my favorite episodes of Queer Eye was when Karamo and Cory (a police officer) had a candid conversation about police brutality and how it affects both the black community and the image of cops. They didn't shy away from the conversation just because it's a delicate topic. I'd love to see more barriers broken in season two.

3. Uniquely you.

Even though this is primarily a makeover show, the Fab 5 take the lifestyles of their nominee into consideration. Like with Tom, he wasn't all about Tan's sense of style, but they found one that suited his personality and still looked phenomenal. Johnathan also keeps the grooming routines really simple so they get eased into self-care.

4. The decor and food.

Bobby is a decor genius and I wish I had his designing acumen. He is rivaled only by Chip and Joanna Gaines. Then there's adorable Antoni who comes up with some really creative and cost-effective foods for the guys. That grilled cheese he taught Neal was unreal!

5. Just... Johnathan.

Johnathan is just so expressive and I love him so much. He is 90% of the reason this show makes me so happy and have gut busting giggles.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
