The L Word has got to be the best show out there for women, even if you are not a lesbian. It's a breakthrough step for Lesbians and television because it's the only show on television based primarily on the lives of lesbians, bisexuals and transexual people. It's funny, dramatic, has the ability to make you laugh out loud and feel the urge to cry at times. It's very moving and entertaining. I think its an asset to Showtime and should be for everyone who watches it or owns it. I decided to buy it because I do not have Showtime at home, and the reviews about this show are so incredible that I would be a fool not to have bought the season for myself. I have recently purchased both the 2nd and 3rd seasons on DVD as well. I'm very proud of this show, and the cast is simply amazing. Watch out for Marina Ferrer everyone...she'll make straight women question their sexuality. HAHA. The characters of the show are just great and any woman can have something in common with one or maybe even all of these characters. They have their flaws and their joys just like any normal person. What am I saying...they are normal people. The Cast is very proud of the work they have done for this show, and they should be. They are a very diverse group of people who get along perfectly on the show and off. Don't miss the oppurtunity to watch or buy this show for yourself. Good thing to add to a DVD collection. I watch it almost daily.Read full review
Is that how we Lesbians really live..well duh! We love, we hate, we fight, we make up and make love we do it all..gasp..we are just like straight couples..L Word is filled with comedy, drama, sex and yes even at times suspense!! Of course my fav character is Shane..who doesn't love Shane?? the thing I love about this show is it's honest, it's in your face and fun..Straight couples with open minds will love this show..Guys with weird fetishes will love this show..and most of all Gays and Lesbians will love this show..only ones who should not be exposed to this show are the kiddies..send them to bed, also lock up your dvd sets when you are away..L Word is filled with sex..sex sex and more sex!!

The L Word "Showtime's frank and vibrant television drama THE L WORD details the personal and professional exploits of a group of lesbian and bisexual women in the hip West Hollywood section of Los Angeles. Writer Jenny (Mia Kirshner) is fresh out of college and has just moved to the city to be with her swim coach boyfriend Tim (Eric Mabius). Their neighbors, Bette (Jennifer Beals) and Tina (Laurel Holloman), are a lesbian couple looking for a sperm donor so they can become parents. Among their friends are closeted tennis player Dana (Erin Daniels), kooky bisexual Alice (Leisha Haley), promiscuous Joan Jett-lookalike Shane (Katherine Moennig), and Bette's recovering alcoholic half-sister Kit (Pam Grier). As Jenny becomes integrated into this group of strong personalities, she begins to challenge her lifelong heterosexuality with a torrid affair with exotic cafe owner Marina (Karina Lombard). Driven by moody direction, provocative storylines, and emotionally engaging characters, THE L WORD is a truly groundbreaking series that delves into issues specific to the lesbian community without sacrificing universality. This collection includes all 13 episodes of the series' addictive debut season." Do you love QAF? If so then this is the female version! Drama, romance, one night stands, betrayals! This has them all. Invite some girlfriends over and pop some popcorn. Enjoy!Read full review
The first few episodes seem like an introduction to homos with explanations of how gays do it and what we call it. I suppose it was to gently expose the virgin eyes of the average American to experiences of big city lesbians. Yes, these women are enticing and gorgeous-so easy to watch. More important are their stories, obstacles, heartaches, loves and triumphs. They are more beautiful and successful than 95% of the people I have ever known, but I can relate to their struggles. Great casting, writing, acting and direction. Also, the music gets great with Leonard Cohen and Rufus Wainwright on the soundtrack.
