Laurel was the heartbeat of this show IMO. Her character transformed the most. She was the hottest with Jennifer and super funny with Mia. I feel bad that the final episode was a disaster but that happens so much with TV series.
TOTALLY LOOKED LIKE A SHAMPOO COMMERCIAL! I was like: WTF?? What's with the hair and the walking and the "we're so happy" look? I really didn't get the so-called "metaphore", but... maybe I just saw too many Shampoo commercials...
Laurel seems like a lovely woman! I have loved her since her role in "2 Girls In Love." I will concur, those ending credits were fucking stupid. By S5, the show was not at all "real" anymore. It was just silly and I am convinced that Ilene is bipolar and/or was dropping acid when she wrote the entire final season. I mean, really...what....the FUCK??!!?
@iamcasihart I agree that a movie won't bring Jenny & Dana back unless there are some flashbacks. No one should have died in the show, as Laurel pointed out at the conventions. I think that somehow Hollywood's shallowness had to be shown in S5. Tina was working in that environment, although she was far from being a sharky movie executive. To me TLW was a show that somehow revolved around the central couple Bette and Tina. What can i say, I'm a Tibetter through and through, can't help it :)
@iamcasihart she is lovely indeed. i was so fortunate to meet her and see her twice in the last four months: at the paris con and a couple of weeks ago at L8 in Brighton. IMHO S5 was as good as 1 and 2. S6, on the other hand, shouldn't have been written the way it has been. This endless debate will keep going until a well scripted movie will be done to redeem the fate of characters and the friendship that brought them together in the first place.
@iamcasihart It's ok, no worries. I guess each and every one of us were drawn and could relate to certain characters and their stories. As to Jenny I remember someone - if I'm correct, it was Laurel in Paris last year - saying the show was initially centered on her. And Laurel's assumption of what was in the writers' mind: S1 would be about her "birth" and S6 about her death, somehow to close the circle, but a very bad way of closing it...
But I think the chance of reassembling the cast now is getting smaller and smaller as time goes by, so we may just be left with the imperfect end we already have. Shame, but Hollywood seems very caught up in remaking the same movies over adn over again...
Sorry to crash your (old) conversation! There would still be plenty of scope for a movie; Tina and Bette building new friendships in NY; Bette working the gallery from there but having to deal with Kelly's crush without Tina hearing about Jenny's video; a second child from where?; Shane developing as a photographer (going to UCSA?) and getting over the loss of another lover; Max, the baby and being a transman; and Alice - did she kill Jenny? Accident or on purpose? Will Tasha stand by her?
@tina4ever68 That is really fantastic that you had the chance to meet LH! As for the show, I am not saying that S5 wasn't "fun," but c'mon...Lesbian Turkish Oil Wrestling? Nikki fucking Stevens??? Adele? Shane was still just a hair stylist, when Kate Moennig CLEARLY stated in interviews that she wished for Shane to evolve into something other than a hair-dressin' cad. And finally, an L Word film won't bring Jenny back. Without Jenny & Dana, it just became the Tina & Bette show.
@tina4ever68 Don't get me wrong, I love Tina and I love Bette. I loved them together and apart. They were the core couple, but it will always be my opinion that Jenny was the central main character. I suppose it is because I could SO relate to Jenny during S1 and S2. This show literally changed my life and I "came out" as I watched Jenny come out. Such a shame that the writers decided to destroy her & in the end, turn this beautiful show into something negative & ugly.
iamcasihart I love this comment I only just started watching it two years ago I was injured after training for a Fight and so I wanted to watch something women centric and empowering and was I’ll try L word and I loved it. It’s a reader and a writers show so much literary mechanics going on and I felt Jenny was the central representative of the audience coming in to this close knit world not available to immediate objectivity. As the story troves forward Jenny became the catalyst to push the story of the true centrals those being the friends she met in LA mainly the mainstay BETTE and TINA because they were a little bit of all the characters and were ensconced . I love having conversations about this show
That credit is stupid. When I watched it I don't know what the hell is that. Why they are all smiling after Jenny died and thay just got interrogated by the police. At that moment I really have the urge to slap those smile off their faces because I don't know what they are smiling about. Is that suppose to be part of the show or we are now seeing the actresses? I really do not understand IC most of the time.
