Finally somewhere I can vent! I am so anti JOBETTE >:( This couple is a hot kerfuffle! No chemistry whatsoever. While I am not pro TiBette either I can stand to watch them rather than JoBette. I love Marlee Matlin (alot) just not kissing JB. Ich. I start to scratch everytime they kiss. That is not what's hot on the streets.
Welcome back Tasha and I hope you and Alice are gonna make it work and STAY together and dramafree * looks @ mama chaiken* for more than ONE episode. But who is Tasha going to hand out with if papi doesn't come back? Oh, I know Helena the other token with a broken storyline.
I think its a good idea for the Phyllis character to come back. I would like to see the exploration of her and Joyce as an "older" lesbian couple. And if that happens please have mercy on me and go easy on the sex scenes.(yikes) Wait, that's if they even have sex! Grey's Anatomy has more booty action than the freakin' L Word, sheesh. The fist episode of s5 needs to be called LAID, with everyone gettin some....no JoBette though *please*
Three words. Carmen,Papi (eva torres),Shane. Talk amongst yourselves.
to mslocs :
me and my girlfriend totally agree with you !!!! you are cool.
....
Thats a shame I don't think either one helped the show at all.
Jodi - Yuk - boring
Phyliss _ ok - but boring
I'm sorry, but both actresses don't belong on TLW. It's not because they are famous and good that they belong to the L word universe. I like Marlee Matlin's acting in itself. Just not in the L word. Even less with Bette (yuck!).
Cybill Shepard.. I don't know.. Phyllis is just.. too much for me...
For the other characters, well, i LOVE Paige and Shane together. Hot, hot, hot!!!!... Tasha and Alice too. They are a beautiful couple... Papi = wtf ??...
Not enough sex in Season 4... (even though the rare sex scenes between Shane and Paige were hot.. can't help it.. :D )
