I have discovered a reason to love TV again: "The L Word" from Showtime. We got Showtime on Demand when we moved, and I've been watching the first season. It's fantastic. It's beyond fantastic.
I feel, watching the movie, like I'm caught in some illicit love affair with someone I should not, that's the immediate and complete attraction I've had to the show and the characters. I can't, as a man, speak to how real the portrayals of the characters are to lesbian life, but it's just a good show. It's better than a good show, it's a fantastic show.
I am so glad that this is on Showtime and not something watered down, butchered, and left for dead on a regular network.
I implore you to watch "The L Word" when you get a chance, rent it on Netflix, or buy the DVDs. It's completely worth it.
