Yes, we’re several episodes behind on our recapping, but this weekend sees the finale of The L Word being aired Stateside. So, with the assitance of modern technology, us Gaelickers have decided to gather around d’telly on Monday night and live-blog what we see. Just because we can. And you can join in, too, if y’like!

Jenny is continuing down the road of inappropriate behaviour by throwing a baby shower for Max. It’s in the style of Willy Wonka so all of our gals are decorating Shenny’s place with oversized ‘candy’ and singing along out of tune, with Jenny overseeing events. It turns out that this is Max’s favourite story; Jenny remembers that but not his gender?

What kind of nonsense will the lesbian world have foisted upon it from Chaiken Towers this week? Who could possibly say, when it sometimes seems like the plot lines are automatically generated at random from a machine. At least it couldn’t possibly be as boring as episode four..!

We’re halfway through the final season and this episode is perhaps the weakest so far. There’s plenty of extraneous dialogue and scenes which are too long or somewhat repetitive. Also, for some unrevealed reason the L Wordettes seem to be in a perpetual state of grazing and lounging around The Planet but more on that later…

After last week’s Shennyanigans what will happen? Will it be all doilies and docs, will Shane admit that at it was a sorry-screw or will Jenny decide to study this new side of their relationship until she squeezes all of the fun out of it and writes another piece of tortured shite? Oh she dies! That’s right. Can’t come soon enough.

Console thineselves, episode two marks the quarter-way-through-point of the very last season. With only six episodes left, what does episode two tell us about the identity or motivations of Jenny’s future killer? Thankfully, not a lot and this episode focuses on the scorching scenes of smut and splendour that The L Word does so well.

Here it is: The final season of The L Word has begun airing in the US. And if past seasons have taught us anything, we sure as hell don’t know what to expect. Particularly as the timeline for this season begins three months after the end of season 5, when one of the main characters has been found dead in Bette’s swimming pool.
