Looking back at the L Word.

THE L WORD, A RETROSPECTIVE.

The L Word comes to an END.

The series finale of the L Word has aired and my heart has been shattered. There's no doubt that some of the story lines were a little far fetched as the seasons went on, but nevertheless I loved all the characters immensely.

I know some people hated the series finale and I understand why, but I don't think it was that bad. I understood the creative process that might have led the show to end the way it did. Jenny came in and started the show, and now she too ended it. I've always loved Jenny Schechter. She was a misunderstood character who was the foundation upon which the show was built. So, hate her all you want, but without her there would be no L Word.

I'll miss the show and its quirky hilarious one line zingers. I'll miss watching the characters and the actors who played them on screen. I'll miss being obsessed with the show and wondering what kind of crazy will Ilene Chaiken was going to give us this week. I'll miss it flawed and all.

Who do you think killed Jenny Schechter?

Jenny Schecter did herself in. That tramp Nikki did it. What the heck was she doing in the bushes? Bette did it to protect her family. Tina or Helena did it. They have had enough of this story line. Shane did it. It was a crime of passion. Alice did it. She is going to be in prison in the spin off, right? Kit did it to protect her sister Bette. It was all Sounders fault! Jenny tripped over him and landed in the pool.

The end of South of Nowhere.

Well, its official... the lesbian teen drama South of Nowhere is no more. The series finale closed the chapter on Spashley (Spencer and Ashley) with consideration to its fans. No one died, no one cheated, and no one ended up in jail. It was just lovely to see South of Nowhere end on a positive note with both lesbian characters finding happiness--I wish Eileen Chaiken would learn from example here, but I doubt she listens to anybody.

Anyway, here's the final SON webisode titled, Five Years Later.
