the l word

Read the fine print! This week, Emily dug deep into why exactly we need an Archive Of Our Own and tells V all about FanLib, a short-lived for-profit, idea-mining fanfiction site partnered with TPTB of several semi-fannish TV shows. The idea? Get fans to write episodes for you for no pay, then profit because the episodes are "what fans wanted to see happen." Needless to say, fandom had a lot of feelings about FanLib and then the FanLib founders had a lot of feelings about those feelings. Did you ever enter a sanctioned fanfiction contest? Where did you read fic in the pre-AO3 world?

WELCOME BACK BESTIES! Today we have some very special guests joining us for the episode, Director Em Weinstein and First Assistant Director, Jill Maxcy. Em directed episodes 303,304, 307 and 308 and Jill worked on all four of Em's episode and the finale with Leisha. Em and Jill share some really interesting stories from their time on the show and we hope you enjoy this little peak behind the scenes. Let's discuss it all! So STRAP in (or on, HA) with us for an episode of Drinks at Dana's! Cheers Queers!

WELCOME BACK BESTIES! It is episode 305 Locked Out, and this episode is ... controversial to say the least! This week all three of us agreed it was a bit of a bore and we were really deprived of Alice and Shane content! There's a lot to talk about, including the fan reaction to this episode, the lack of Dani & Gigi, the lack of Bette & Tina and Shane cheating steadily since 2004. So STRAP in (or on, HA) with us for an episode of Drinks at Dana's!

WELCOME BACK BESTIES! It is episode 304 Last to Know, and this episode is ... controversial to say the least! This is our first ever holiday in The L Word world and it's Halloween! We also have a familiar face popping up! We go over the episode of course, but that is followed by a discussion regarding the fan reactions to this episode and what the hell is going on with Gigi's departure and why no one is talking. Be sure to weigh in in the comments and let us know what you think! There's a lot to talk about, including the fan reaction to this episode, the lack of Dani & Gigi, the lack of Bette & Tina and Shane cheating steadily since 2004.

WELCOME BACK BESTIES! It is episode 303, Quiz Show, and this episode is ... a LOT! We are a podcast divided because Chris and Jess loved the ep, but it wasn't Ash's cup of tea, we know, usually the other way around! Dani & Gigi are smashed to pieces in this episode and it is also the first ever L Word episode WITHOUT Bette F*cking Porter! There's a lot to talk about, including the fan reaction to this episode, the Dani & Gigi split, the lack of Bette & Tina and Shane cheating steadily since 2004.

WELCOME BACK BESTIES! It is episode 302, Los Angeles Traffic, and this episode is WILD! We pick up right where we left off and got some awesome Bette & Tina scenes! How lucky and how 2004 of us! One of the highlights of this episode & the entirety of Gen Q is the four OG scene at Dana's, totally gave us The Planet vibes! There is so much going in this episode, Bette & Tina, NXIVM, Imagine Me & You, running through traffic, meditating, grand gestures, declarations of love AND SO MUCH MORE!

WELCOME BACK BESTIES! What a long wait it has been, and I'm not just talking about season three, some of us have been waiting 15+ years for what we got in this episode! This episode has it all, Bette and Tina, Dani and Gigi (although in a dramatically reduced role), Shane and Tess (probably not for long), Sophie and Finley (probably not for long), Micah and Maribel (probably not for long) and Alice and a Gen Z guy (oh that's already over). So strap in (HA) with us for a supersized episode of Drinks at Dana's!

“Honestly, I’ve never liked a guy more in my life.” —Shane McCutcheon

We’ve arrived at our destination: Lesbian Hell. Thanks for riding the Hot Mess Express with us this season of The L Word: Generation Q! Season 2 may have finally come to a close, but we’re still experiencing whiplash. Our dear L.A. lesbians are making some interesting choices: Bette is breaking up an almost-marriage, Shane can’t figure out the meaning of long-distance relationships, Alice can’t stop herself from snooping, Dani is in contempt of court and so much more. And of course, our roller coaster ride ends right at the edge of a cliff. Hang on tight! Xtra's senior editor Erica Lenti and managing producer Chelle Turingan host.

Get your tuxedos and dresses ready—it’s prom, The L Word style! But first, Angie is trying to meet her donor, Alice is coming out as bisexual again, Bette and Pippa are protesting big pharma at the California Art Center, Sophie is searching for Finley and Gigi has a recorder concert to get to.
