L-Word Update

As promised............hmmmm so far no new characters introduced and mostly checking in with existing characters - one surprise character revisits tho! Can't help but think that my initial luke warm reaction reflects my own jadedness with "lesbians behaving badly" - I guess without the drama there would be no story (still we have lost our only "happy couple" so someone somewhere needs to develop some kind of half way healthy relationship just, because, well that would be kinda nice to see!). Will wait and see what next week brings - oh and Jenny is still an angsty/whingy pain, I can't quite forgive Tina "her man thing", what the hell is Max all about?, surprise surprise Helena is finely looking like someone you might actually want to have a relationship with, Alice is transformed from slightly psycho wacko (albeit it funny) into slightlytless psycho wacko and noticing other people have problems too, Shane is/remains a train wreck happening before our eyes and Bette needs a slap (virtually of course 'cos we don't do violence) - no sign of Carmen....yet (she may come back with a machine gun - but I don't think we have quite reached "Kill Bill").
