It was definitely entertaining to see an episode of the UK edition of Queer Eye. But I have to say, even though the British Fab Five seemed quite nice and lively, in comparison to our US originals they seems positively sedate. They don't seem to have any one member with a gift for high-frequency quippage like Carson--or Ted or Thom, for that matter. And there also seems to be a "whole greater than sum of parts" level of group wackiness that our US team achieves on a regular basis, that wasn't in evidence with the Brits. Okay, a couple of them did have a nice puppy-pile in the kids' toys with attendant joking about "Queer-terestrial," that was pretty fun. But still ...

Oh yeah, and they sure didn't give the Brit food-and-beverage guy a whole helluva lot to do in that episode in terms of actual consumables-preparation.
