Can This Series GET More Liberal? [Posted on 2008-07-05]
I've spent the past 2 weeks watching seasons 1-4 (and I'm totally jonesing waiting for 5 to become available on DVD)and I almost feel I need to rewatch them all for perspective on the series so far. I have found each episode in each season to be immensely amusing, sometimes very touching, always interesting. I like that the plotlines address all facets and experiences of lesbian life.
My only complaint, really, is the out of control overt politicization so pervasive in the fourth season. I'm aware that most lesbians (in my experience) are rabidly and radically (and oppressively) Left. But for me, the rare Republican/Libertarian, the completely unrestrained Bush-bashing of season four somewhat took away from the overall quality of the series as a whole.
I wonder how these characters, or their real life counterparts, would fare in a country controlled by Wahabi fascists? If they think the Christian Right has an agenda (and it does) for dealing with "alternative lifestyles", that's nothing compared to the Islamic "final solution". Wake up, Lesbians of America. Remember 9/11?
ok if you don't use blu-ray [Posted on 2008-10-24]
The DVDs work fine the only technical issue I had with this product is that they do not work with some blu-ray systems, more specifically, the blu-rays that are made to connect to Netflix. When I tried playing the discs on the blu-ray the picture wouldn't show or there would be sound but it was the wrong image, etc. After troubleshooting the system we realized that it just doesn't like playing the L Word season 4 discs.
Still watching it... [Posted on 2008-11-23]
I've only watched through the third episode, but so far it is better than Season 3. The gals are still making poor choices, but at least there are interesting character tidbits along the way.
Better writing, better stories [Posted on 2008-12-02]
In season four, this series really starts to click. The stories are more substantive, the writing is better, even Jenny is (slightly) less annoying. I really liked and miss Dana, but new characters and the growth of Max and Helena really make up for losing her. The best addition is Marlee Maitlan as Jody, a terrific actress anytime, but she shines as the controversial and hot blooded artist who finally makes Bette grow up a little.
