Well, kids, it’s finally here – the end of an era. Amidst all the EPIC FAIL!!!! struggle and drama and heartache arises a new hope, that the women of The L Word, whom we’ve grown to know and love and love to loathe, will meet a fitting end. Okay, so maybe we can already guess that there are no puppies and rainbows and puppies shitting rainbows in store for the gang, but c’mon… closure would be nice! And so, with hope lightening our hearts and lust singing in our loins, we go forth bravely into that long night known as: finale.
In the interrogation room, Shane spills her guts. “Feeling,” she muses, “is a solitary emotion.” While I’m thrilled to kick off this historical hour of teevee with some good old-fashioned lesbian processing… Shane, ‘feeling’ is not an actual emotion. It is the act of HAVING an emotion. Perhaps if they had written your character as having something more than the emotional range of a shoe, you would know this.
In a flashback, Jenny and Shane do a spiel for the “tribute” video Jenny is making for Bette and Tina’s going away party. Jenny muses that Bette and Tina leaving is as much an adventure for her and Shane as for Tibette themselves. Jenny: “You were this supreme, wonderful, beautific couple and now we’re going to take your place!” Shane, thrilled, looks likely to volunteer to be the one found face-down in the pool.
Instead of the usual opening credits, we get a title screen and some tense music leading us right into… Alice confronting Tasha and Jamie about their secret love for one another – at the Planet, of course. Alice: “Just be fucking truthful about your feelings.” Jamie fesses up that she has indeed fallen for Tasha. Alice: “Thank you. And fuck you!” Alice bails, telling the two of them to “try it” together and that if she doesn’t hear from Tasha the next day, she’ll know she has made her choice.
At Helena’s, Jenny has arrived to take Helena and Dylan’s depositions – uh, I mean, tribute video stylings. Alas, they’re mid-fight: Dylan, just having lost the place she was subletting, is sulky about Helena not having invited her to move in. Helena feels pressured and resentful. And here’s Jenny with her camera! Alrighty, you two love birds. Let’s go make some memories! Jenny:

The last season of the L Word was as delightful as licking a shoe...

Well, we should be specific. After all, there are few folks whose boots I wouldn't too terribly mind licking. So why don't we say it was as delightful as licking IC's shoes after she'd just walked all over us with them.

I believe there is a old pair of black high tops in my closet but let's just say I'd rather take out the garbage than talk about my feelings. I have an avatar of an actual picture of me in the VP forum but I don't know how to put it up here.

So my #s1-3, 5 certainly make me one of the masses but NO ONE else mentioned Shane and Paige at all. Is she persona non grata for dissing the LWord actors?

I just finally watched 607
I just finally watched 607 and 608. Really struggled to get to the end in anticipation of reading JW after.
Why do I bother with the Showtime version?
Oh, yeah, the SEX scenes!
My favorites in no particular order (because I know how much you all care):
1) S1E1 Bette and Tina (just because I'd never scene anything like that before on TV!
@) Jenny and Marina (same as above)
2) Bette and that carpenter-- hot hot build up. So forbidden!!
3) All Helena and Dylan (even though I didn't like Dylan, geez that was worth hating her for.)
4) Shane and Paige's 50's montage--watched that about 30 times. Ilene's very best moment IMHO.
5) Alice Dana "Finally"
OK, I'm realizing there are many more so I'll stop now.
Anyone else agree/disagree?
Insomniac
You're right..... I didn't
You're right..... I didn't get the "damsel" vibes from Dylan, but then that may have had a lot to do with the humping...
and thank you for linking the entire episode - I'm appreciative of youtube, but getting to watch all the way through is fantastic...your recaps were more fun than the episodes...I read you before I watched them...

Dood. They're all sneaky,
Dood. They're all sneaky, conniving and manipulative! I feel bad for Dylan.
She was damned if she did, damned if she didn't.
(At least we got to see her hump Helena one last time. Sigh.)
Now, Julia, I didn't say I
Now, Julia, I didn't say I didn't "like" the knife thingy.......
Dylan is too sneaky, conniving, manipulative....

Dylan - on the patio beside the pool - smothered her to unconsciousness - put her in the pool (evidently there was no big splash) - Jenny drowned
That Dylan is one sexy woman, but she's a little bit scary....okay, she's a lotta bit scary!
Sorry, for being so late with a comment about 608 but I just got to watch it all the way through last night:
Warrior interrogator talking about the group of friends to Max:
"....they're ass holes."
Max: ".....Yeah, they were pretty hard to penetrate...."
That pretty much sums up that episode for me.
Twitter Time @kdhales
I'm not sure what any of this
I'm not sure what any of this season was about other than promoting the spin-off show. But the finale is going to make one hell of a drinking game once I get the rules sorted!
Did anyone see the Showtime
Did anyone see the Showtime interview with Katherine Moennig (on an itunes vlog) where they ask her why Shane would kill Jenny? What was that about if they weren't actually going to tell us if she did?

Dollhouse season summary so
Dollhouse season summary so far:
Echo is an "active" with no personality to call her own until programmed with one by her creepy overlords. Each week she goes on missions, accompanying increasingly misogynistic dudes on missions of a dubious nature (spying, outdoor adventure, dating/sex). At the end of each mission she is debriefed and "wiped" back to being in a childlike blank slate. Tammoh What's-His-Face's (Helo on BSG) character is a much put-upon government agent trying to track Echo and the Dollhouse down. Meanwhile, her programming is starting to go on the fritz, letting stuff she's not supposed to remember leak in in bits and pieces... oh, and there's a renegade active named Alpha who has some sort of connection to Echo and is going around sabotaging the Dollhouse and its peeps.
You're all caught up!

Does anybody know when the next season for The L Word starts? I can't find the information anywhere.
