I have been waiting for the new season premiere and it is finally only 3 days away.

Yes, Milli......me and my husband are big fans of the L Word.....we have had only one season shown here so far on cable.......but my husband has enquired about getting dvd's of some of the other seasons.....not sure yet what is available to us here in Austrlia.
Its been a while since that season finished here, so I forget a lot of the characters names.....our favourites were the one played by the girl out of Flashdance, and the other favourite is the young dark haired butchy one, she acts tough on the outside but we saw a soft side of her near the end.
I looked up the website for the show, and noticed they had different lots of casts for different seasons. Does the whole cast change from season to season, or is it just that some go and some join?
Will be keen get any info you might have on the show.
Lumière:
Hey Sue .. Great to see you here! :D
The L-word is currently in its 4th season but the 3rd season premieres Thursday here on one of the local channels.
I believe you can get the L-word on DVD from Amazon! I will be getting seasons 1 and 2 as soon as I can!
I love the show because I love the women's stories and the way they are told. Some people have said that the L-word is sorta like QAF (Queer as Folk) for women .. but I think I enjoy LW more than QAF (although that is a great show too!). As all the woman struggle to find love in their different, sometimes complicated lives, I can't help but get drawn into their dramas. :)
And I agree with what you said about Shane. She does everything she can to show a tough, "I don't give a F" attitude, but she is definitely concealing a soft side (one she possibly considers a weakness, what with the way she grew up and all..). :)
The main characters are the same from season to season, but some come and go. For example, Jenny's boyfriend TIM and the woman Jenny fell in love with in season 1: MARINA .. did not return for season two.
All in all .. this show rocks!
Lumière:
Oh and another thing Sue ...
This may help you remember the characters and their names: ;)

Aren't these women gorgeous?! ;)
I am blown away by the way Pam Grier (KIT) looks .. the woman is 57 years old! She looks 35!! :o 8)

Thanks Milli, for the cast photos.....I havent seen the show Queer as Folk, but I have heard that it is good.....when I describe the L Word to anyone...I usually say it is like Sex and the City, only with Lesbians......do you see the similarity?
I have often wondered if the actresses in the show are actually Lesbians, do you know if any of them are?
I agree with you about Kit, hard to imagine she is 57...what a looker.
Do you know any site where there is more info on the actresses...I guess if I looked them up on the net I would find out more.
Yes we are waiting for series 2 to commence here...havent seen any promos yet about when that is happening.
