trying to gather some thoughts about the first two sesons of the show so i have stuff to say on here.... uhhh.... here we go....
i'm like overall pleasantly surprised by everything, mostly because i tried to watch this show when i was like 13 but the pilot is so fucking boring i gave up after 10 minutes. i love slice of life type of shows so i'm enjoying the L word a lot lololol. i think all the characters are well developed, with maybe one exception but it's because she's a new add, everyone has a lot of depth and feel real in a very human way... realistically flawed.
i'm not like sure she is my favorite character yet but shotout to shane. there was a lot of potential for her character to be handled badly or ignored for the most part in favor of her insane sex appeal, but the writers and production really seem to care for her and make sure to show her vulnerable and hurting, it's very nice... and she's just so interesting T_____T i can't stop thinking about the scene where she finally opens up about her life and talks about her mom being a drug addict + leaving her in foster care and the way she ends it by saying "and i still love her very much" T_____T baby girl T____T i'm seriously tearing up just remembering it.
this one goes out for meow meow #2, jenny. my god what a fucked up young woman. apparently the audience hated her character which i can try to understand? i guess she is the meredith grey of the L word, but i can't help but sympathize. it feels bad to watch her sabotage her life, and at the same time you can't really decide what you'd do in her place. she gets into relationships then ends them, and you aren't sure which situation would be the most benefitial to her. i think the way they're exploring her CSA is interesting too, the scene where she tells shane that she isn't sure what memories are real and what are overexaggerations of her mind... she is so fucked up T____T im starting to doubt we are ever going to see jenny genuinely happy.
also RIP the jenny/shane/carmen threesome that never happened.
dana and alice together are sooooooo cute i love when best friends date i can't lie.... what else.... tina is sooo boring and unsexy sdjkfhdks and bette is soo beautiful and like... a man jkshsjd its so funny how some lesbians really are actual men. the sex in the show is really hot and good i can't lie, also i love looking at the extras and seeing actual dykes there. also from the bit i skimmed from reddit apparently the actresses had beef with each other a lot, and that's why marina's character ended up written out so soon despite being a fan fave. i'm curious about what else went on behind the scenes but looking that up before finishing the show kinda ruins the vibe for me so i'm waiting... maybe marina really is the only one who could fix jenny.
[END] i love lesbians
