In each episode of Bravo's breakout reality series Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, five gay men, called the "Fab Five", made over a straight man. One special episode showed a makeover of members of the World Series-winning Boston Red Sox. The show's name was eventually changed to Queer Eye, and the format was broadened from the one-straight-man makeover setup. Versions of the show were made for many foreign markets, including the United Kingdom, Italy, Finland and Spain, but most did not achieve the success of the original.
