episodes early in the season: we dont need to talk to each other before we { fuck | have a child | start a business | live in the same house | create media about each other }
episodes in the middle of the season: oh wait
episodes at the end of the season: we should talk.
-
every act of solidarity that appears on this show is performed by guest stars. its somehow unthinkable for main cast to show compassion to anyone who isnt a personal friend.
it is so fucking weird.
-
it is really impressive how every episode leads me to ever deeper levels of disdain for jenny schecter
-
got to the arc where new character Phyllis has the audacity to come out in her late forties and is consistently treated like a punchline
so thats a mood
Cybill Sheppard is fucking amazing tho

Character of the Day: Molly Kroll

i feel like everything you need to know about the quality caliber of The L Word is best illustrated by the key image on amazon prime for this show about lesbians being a kiss between kit and ivan, neither of whom are lesbians.
cause it's like that, top to bottom.
-
but this also gets filed under "this show is more cultural artifact than contemporary commentary"
earlier in the scene Max says theyre in a "straight club" which… i honestly have trouble even conceiving as a thing that exists. like nazi bars exist, sure, but thats a different thing.
the idea that my wife and i dancing together in a whistler BC ski chalet might make a roomful of patrons uncomfortable is similarly hard to imagine.
groundbreaking in 2006, normal in 2026.
-
just got to Jenny telling Max that he'll never pass and will always be an outsider like her and wow. i laughed so fucking hard.
cause first, Jenny doesnt know shit about trans issues but boy does she feel justified in shooting her mouth off
and secondly, Jenny is an outsider because she's a eerie little weirdo, and puts concerted effort into being an eerie little weirdo, and cant stop herself from shooting her mouth off at every opportunity
-
Bette's eternal character arc is "wait, am i the asshole?" and then she realizes she is in fact the asshole and the season concludes and she never actually stops being the asshole because once the next season starts she discovers that she's the asshole again in completely new ways
-
okay the non-ubiquity of cell phones has been a big date marker for The L Word but its being eclipsed by the absence of explicit conversations about monogamy and nonmonogamy.
that ambiguity is also driving like half the plotlines in s3 tho so maybe its an intentional artistic choice and not an unconscious reflection of the times?
cause its 2006, and even my boring ass was in a polycule then. talking about this stuff wasnt obscure at the time.

CW: The L Word s3e5 spoilers (because you care im sure)
.
"is the goth girl a vampire, no literally im honestly worried" plotline: immaculate. perfection. no notes.juxtaposing that with the cancer plotline and existential grief at the loss of career, purpose, and bodily autonomy? fucking transcendant.
and then "who cares if shes nosferatu, the sex is too good" just amazing. did this episode win every tv award ever because it should have.
who did this? seriously, this is amazing.

Helena has enterred the Oh Shit This Is a Farce chat!
-
omg in season three they take a show about girls kissing and they add a BABY
-
this is like a social experiment where you can watch this whole cast, all of whom signed up to be part of a serious landmark drama series, realize one by one that theyve been cast in a longform farce.
alice is the first to figure it out.
dana then runs off with her to be silly.
then jenny goes "oh, we're doing unhinged? ok cool, lets do unhinged!"
i havent even finished season two yet.
my money is on bette never figuring it out and acting her heart out until the bitter end.
-
i want a book club except its for The L Word because this show is such a rich text. and by "rich text" i mean its some of the most batshit television ive seen in a long time

It’s been a massive weekend of hosting for Wales Comic Con. I have seen lots of old friends, made some new ones and interviewed some legends along the way. #JenniferBeals #TheLWord #Flashdance #TheBookofBobaFett (Photo credit: Christopher Beckers)

‘Reefer Madness’ Legacy Concert: Kristen Bell’s Chipped Tooth, ‘The L Word’ Connection & More Secrets Revealed

Why the #Lack of #Sapphic #Representation in #Film & #TV Needs to #Change
Unfortunately, #TheLWord is one of very few #examples that allow for #sapphic #relationships to take #centerstage, and the range of #lesbian and #bisexual representation #doesn’t seem to be widening even though we are 2 decades deep into the 21st Century.

I have been noticing that lately my #tonal #inflections have become much like Alice from #TheLWord players by #LeishaHailey
It's not intentional but I kinda like it.
