NY Mag's Simon Dumenco theorizes that NBC's reality makeover series, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, is really just one extended exercise in aggressive product placement, reinforced by the corporate cheerleading around the supposed "metrosexual" trend.

Which is funny, because if QEFTSG were a magazine about not-so-subtle product placement, it'd probably be this one.
