David Collins has said that he is interested in filming the next season of Queer Eye in the Midwest, and that he would like to bring the Fab Five to his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio: "I'm from Cincinnati, Ohio, born and raised. I would like to go the tristate region, Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, because you can base in Cincinnati and go across the bridge to Kentucky and go up the interstate to Indiana. The corn-fed midwestern folk are where I'm from — and I love actually being from Ohio, it's a great place to be from."^[11] Porowski would like to take it somewhere with a colder climate, while Berk also has ideas for where the show may go in future seasons, including expanding the diversity of it to people of more ethnicities and genders.^[12]
