All right, so it's not live -- it's barely even warm. The L Word was on Sunday. KC and Elka, the Planet girls, posted their podcast recap on Wednesday and I listened to it on Friday. For anyone who's never listened to this, check it out. Here are a few highlights culled for your interest (Oh, btw, KC and Elka sound almost exactly alike -- by the end of the season I'll almost have them straight, so, until then, quotes will be unattributed or, maybe, hmm ... Kelka?!?!)
Of foremost importance:
The Boobie Count: 4/8 -- Alice, Tasha, Shane, real estate lady
On Helena's humiliations:
"Hottest cavity search I ever saw."
On Helena's jailhouse social ineptitude:
"If you go to jail, when you meet your cellie [unusual familiarity will the lingo, don't you think?] for the first time, fake an American accent if you have to.
Even better? Don't say anything."
On Shane breaking free from Page:
"This is our Shane -- Open the door, there's a boob on her head and she's, like, 'Hi.' "
"Some may call it a problem ... if there's a boob on your head, I don't see a problem."
On Joyce Wishnea's guttural emanations:
"She must smoke one thousand cigarettes a day."
Quote of the week:
Tina: Since, when does Jenny have an assistant?
"That expression on Tina's face --
She was, like -- Huh!?! As soon as I saw that expression, I was like, Oh my God, I love Tina! What the fuck?! I started to question everything -- my sexuality, my own being. It's, like, what's going on? She's hilarious!"
Summing up:
"Really good. There were boobies. All kind of boobies. And no penises or bacne men."

OK, I will admit the second episode of the L Word was a solid B- compared to the first episode which almost had me calling Showtime to cancel my subscription. It appears Ilene Chaiken is having a difficult time finding her voice...each season of the L Word has struggled to find its niche since the first season. Is it a drama? Is it a comedy? or are its episodes intentionally morphing into public services vignettes intended to educate the ignorant masses on the lesbian lovestyle? The women are beautiful that is true and it is the only all lesbian show on cable but I wonder if that is enough to keep us watching? I cant help feeling that popping in a good porn or watching "Skinamax" at dark would be equal to if not more titillating than tuning into the L Word on Sunday nights? There might even be more coherent dialog and plot-lines?
With the second episode, Ilene seems quite possibly to have found her voice....comedy. I hope she sticks with it and takes us on an enjoyable ride. If not, I hear Cashmere Mafia on ABC has a hot lesbian character that maybe worth watching! Check it out on Youtube:
It is remarkable, very good message
