The L Word – 5×10 Lifecycle
The sixth season has officially been confirmed, but there will only be 8 more episodes. At least there have only been eight requested by Eline Chaiken. She thinks that she can wrap all the storylines up in eight episode. So in exactly one year, ‘The L Word’ will be history. It has been quite a trip, I can tell you that.
Spoiler warning!
Tina Kennard and Bette Porter
Tina being the all frustrated director, when she spotted Jenny and Nicky. “I quit, I fucking quit.” I loved that part, it was so funny, the way that she was acting all dramatic and the others couldn’t care less about her. The way that she threw her hands up in the air, I am pretty sure that if she wasn’t wearing those sunglasses you could have seen her eyes roll.
Then there was of course that talk when they where riding their bikes, the talk about Tina not wanting Jodi to know about Tina and Bette fooling around behind her back. I mean seriously did they think they could hide it? The two of them, not in a million years not even if they tried.
That just had to go south … of course they would be caught. There bound is too strong to hide.
Bette can follow simple instructions, even though I haven’t seen the manual I am pretty sure it didn’t say fall on your ass! By the way did you see translator guy and Max laugh at her?
Typically how Jodi walked away from Bette when she bitched at her that she could follow some simple instructions only to end up helping Tina with her tent.
Shane McKutcheon and Molly Kroll
Can someone please explain that to me? The cute university girl and the uneducated hairdresser, because I don’t get it. Sure I get it when it is a fling, I mean Shane had flings in all shapes and sizes ( okay that is not true it where always cute girls but still completely different girls then this one ) and they are in a relationship now? I really can’t see it … not at all.
Ow yes something that I wondered about was when Jenny asked if Shane could do something about her stalker because she had been following them for 30 miles, then Shane replies that she still had 170 miles to go … what? Really are they riding 200 miles? That is an aweful lot …
Getting a doctorate in ‘fucking gay’, that rant is so funny! Haha if someone is standing like that in front of you, wouldn’t you just react the same way Shane does? I would … but then again, it is Shane and happy bliss when it comes to love never lasts long. And she is no Carmen … We’ll see where it goes, but Shane’s track record isn’t that good.
Shane said to Molly ‘no more pink’. Did you see that Barbie bike that she was riding on! Pink shirt, pink bike all she was missing was a peroxide blonde wig!
Jenny Shecter, Nikki and Adele
Poor Jenny her pussy was numb after 30 miles … imagine what it must feel like after 200! But then again that night with Nikki she didn’t seem to have a problem at all. Remarkable recovery!
Adele, taking care of everything … and when I say everything I mean everything. What the hell was that tent about. That was ridiculous!
And using that camera? Hello sex scandal! Tomorrow freely available on the world wide web. And there is the connection to Paris Hilton. Makes me wonder, do Jenny and Nikki meet her in a ‘I’ve-been-involved-a-celeb-sex-scandal meeting’?
Poor Tina and here she thought that she was freaking out this week, imagine what it is like in the next episode, she probably wishes that she had quit before it even started.
Alice Pieszecki and Tasha Williams
That laugh. Tasha Williams’ laugh isn’t that the cutest laugh you ever heard!
To be honest I was quite surprised by the comment that Tasha made. Okay I agree, sex is cheating and in my opinion kissing is too. But thinking, that I can’t see as cheating cause that would mean that if you are in a relationship and you watch a movie and you think ‘Wow that’s a hotty!’ that you are cheating? That is weird, I can’t believe that she would never look at someone and think something like that.
Wow! Alice and Tasha where having a serious talk! The future, kids and all that, that is the really serious stuff and so soon. But then again when you say that even thinking is cheating you might as well cover all bases as soon as possible, I guess.
Kit Porter
Is Kit still acting? Oh she is … sorry I thought she was merely there to put in a good one liner or two during the show. It would have been good if she had some bigger scenes especially when it comes to the whole Tina-Bette-Jodi triangle thing. I think that she should have pushed Bette more to come clean about what she was doing with Tina.
Team Dana
It was good to see them all standing there paying their respects once more to Dana. The one that we lost way too early on the show. It was good to see them all standing there even the people who never knew her. Dana, I still miss her, I liked her character a lot. And I guess that in a way she reminded me of myself.
It is good to see that they still remember Dana Fairbanks, you know it always annoys me to no end when a beloved character dies/leaves a show and the other people continue life as though they where never there. At least with ‘The L Word’ we have seen some episodes in which they remembered her. And of course she appeared in Alice’s dream.
The campfire
The questions during the campfire … seriously you could see that cheating question coming from a mile away, probably even from ten miles or a hundred. It either could have been this game or spin the bottle the end result would have been just as bad.
Shane says; ‘I don’t think that sex counts as cheating unless it happens more then once.” Did you hear that almost insane laugh of Bette when she said that. Seriously it sounds insane, a really nervous laugh but then again she could probably feel the tread of what was about to happen creep upon her from the deep dark forest behind them.
Someone pointed out that when Tina, Shane and Alice where in Tina’s tent talking about what had just happened. And Shane said; “I never saw that one coming.” They all took a swig from their bottles, all three of them. Now I do not know of course if that was on purpose but it was funny.
I really feel so sorry for Jodi, this never should have happened. But like Alice said there was a lot of cheating going on already in Bette’s past. And I have said it before, Bette is destructive. Each time something good happens she turns it into something bad. Bette loves Tina, Tina loves Bette and well I think that they should be together. As a family like they once wanted to be. But it is like Kit says, Bette does what’s right for Bette and at a moment like that she doesn’t think of other people or their feelings. I know that I am repeating myself but Bette and Tina have been through this with the ‘carpenter gal’ and still they do it to Jodi. And that is just plain cruel.
