Colorful, whimsical and full of energy, Netflix Weird Eyes exploded onto our screens and into our hearts in 2018. Since then, the reboot has remained wildly popular, with the show winning the Outstanding Structured Reality Program Emmy five years in a row.
Before you settle into Season 7, why not try some of the Fab Five’s best transformations? From an Australian farmer to a Japanese hospital nurse and an American dog groomer, join Antoni Porowski, Bobby Berk, Jonathan Van Ness, French Tan, And Karamo Chocolate because they change lives.
10 “Yass, Australia!” — Minisode
The Fab Five travel downstairs to the rural town of Yass (yes, that’s real), where they meet local farmer George. George went from scruffy “Australian Marlboro Man” to a rosy-cheeked, smiling cowboy ready to take on the world.
George’s nervous energy around the guy is sweet and endearing, and you can see his confidence growing. It made even more tears when George told his son, Levi, that he inspired him, and Levi burst into tears. The couple then hugged the smiles plastered on their faces. Yes dear!
9 “Groomer Has It” — Season 5, Episode 2
Rahanna’s dog walker is in dire need of help as she tries to keep her business in her run-down 23-year-old RV. People gave Rahanna, her business, and her home a magical makeover that any dog owner would admire.
Viewers will love Rahanna’s energy and sweet smile as she finally reaches her height. But perhaps the most iconic moment was when the men threw a doggy fashion show emblazoned from toe to ear with Stylish Pooch’s new bright pink logo.
8 “Disabled, But Not Really” — Season 4, Episode 2

Kind, caring, and funny, Yoko runs a hospice in her home and even gives up her bedroom for her patients. Fab Five arrives and fills him with the confidence, love, and joy he deserves. (And he got his room back!)
Yoko said she always wanted to dress like that Audrey Hepburn, and Tan did just that. Viewers will love her reaction as her face lights up, telling her she feels graceful and elegant in her new outfit. Karamo took it one step further by asking her to ride a Vespa, the same car as Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck drive in his favorite movie Roman holiday.
6 “A Worthy Proposal” — Season 2, Episode 2
William is stuck in the 70s with his style and desperately wants to propose to his girlfriend, Shannon, but fears heartbreak and rejection. The Fab Five stepped in and changed his life completely, giving him the confidence he needed to take the next step in his life.
Johnathan worked his magic on William, and his transformation was absolutely jaw-dropping. This was then followed by an Oscar worthy proposal which was filmed and made by William. According to Netflix, the couple are still together today and thriving. Someone give us tissues.

2 “Craw-Zaddy” — Season 6, Episode 5

This transformation is a must watch for fans of the show and reminds us how much the Fab Five can change people’s lives. Tom’s eyes are brighter, he’s smiling, and he’s standing taller after the makeover, giving him the push he needs to get the Abbey back. Tom sadly passed away in March 2023; his obituary read, “Please watch season 1, episode 1 of Weird Eyes on Netflix and tell others about it out of respect for Tom.”
