Enjoy tonight's episode, guys! You've been waiting quite some time for this.

I never was able to see S1 ... nor do I have Showtime. But, enjoy!

I think this was a good season opener. The credits were a bit weird considering there wasn't any last season.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Carmen the girl who used Alice and treated her badly during the beginning of season 1?

I'm loving the whole Dana/Alice thing. I really wish they would just get together already. Their run together was hilarious when they were telling each other what not to do.

Tina: I feel sorry for her considering she has to raise her child alone.

Bette: I hate that she continued to sleep with Candace even if she did eventually break it off.

Ivan/Kit: I don't know what to think about it, I'm sort of mixed.

Marina: I can't believe she would do something like that. It just doesn't seem like something she would do, even if she was madly in love with Jenny.

Jenny: I think she's gotten better over last season. I might even start to like her more.

Tim: I'm sad to see him go but I guess he had to eventually. Where else would they place him in the storyline?

Shane/Carmen: I wonder what's going to happen between them. They're an interesting pair, not to mention Carmen is gorgeous.

I can't wait to read about what you guys thought about tonights episode.

withdrawal!

FORTUNATELY I stumbled across a person who loaned me the first season of the L word on dvd, UNFORTUNATELY, I am now hooked, and being from Canada I don't have access to showtime. Does anyone know where I might be able to download episodes after they air?

I was so excited for a new episode last night! lol Here are my thoughts:

Marina - I couldn't believe she tried to kill herself. I guess it was because of Jenny's rejection. I was no Marina fan but that kinda sucks.

Jenny - she still annoys me tremendously. I see that she was still up to her old ways. She so needs to just work on her writing and forget relationships.

Tim - I was sad to see him go.

Tina/Bette - I felt zero sympathy for Bette. I was cheering Tina on. What5 made it worse was that Bette was still sleeping w/Carmen before she suddenly decides she misses Tina.

Dana/Alice - I can't wait to see how they handle this over the season. Their awkwardness was fun. Tonya just needs to go away.

Shane/Carmen - okay they're hot together. I don't know where this is going but I want her to be the one for Shane.

Ivan/Kit - probably my least favorite story. I don't understand it and I think it should be dropped. I want Kit to stay straight.

Can't wait for next week.

Nope, actually, that would be Gabby, played by Guinevere Turner.

I thought the same thing about Jenny last night...she actually didn't bug me, at all during the episode...I was kinda scared, lol. I kinda felt bad for her after Tim had sex with her and left...that was just kinda dumb.

It was the Transitional Special last night. Marina, Tim, Candace and Gene all went to the Land Of The Dead Marios and we got our first taste of Carmen.

Nice show and highly enjoyable.

Thanks, I was confusing my characters.

The whole waking up Jenny and having 10 second sex with her was just odd. She said no, wouldn't that be considered rape? Nonetheless, we may never know what that was about.

santastic: You say you live in Canada. Have you tried looking at the Showcase website? It's like the Canadian version of Showtime. They might be airing it.

Was I the only who thought it was a little bit disappointing?

i really loved this opening episode .. also i agree that having opeiing credits was a bit weird .. but beutiful pictures in the credit i might add

i loved all the Dana /alices scenes .. and i still dont like Tonja

about Kit .. well i think shes the next gay one... well or Bi one .. like you want to see it .. but Ivan (sp) wow thats a hot woman .. i really dont know why she dresses herself up as a man with this body .. whooo .. but i think Kit should stay straight .. unless she really falls in love with Ivan ..

Carmen .. wow ..shes HOT ... that tattooo .. the stomach .. those eyes .. teh hair .. aww i think i´m in love and with Shane .. even hotter

Jenny .. hmm well still dont like her that much .. but we´ll see

I was sad to see tim go

Bette /Tina ... hmm well .. i do believe that bette misses Tina .. but i wouldnt forgive her either ...

Yeah I forgot to comment on this before but that moment made me kind of uncomfortable. I didn't even really understand it. And I didn't like how she was saying no but he kept climbing on top of her anyway. Then when she finally relents he doesn't even climax and just kind of leaves her there. Very strange moment, not Tim's finest.
