The Real L Word Shooting in San Fransisco

The Real L Word Shooting in San Fransisco

We just got a hot tip from someone in San Francisco that The Real L Word was shooting last night at the famed lesbian bar, the Lexington Club. Like all great lesbian hot spots, it's a dive bar with a pool table.  Our contact reports that there was just "one dude cameraman and no Chaiken."

If anyone was there last night and has more info, please write in!

I'm looking forward to

this little slice of um, magic?! ... (I hope) Smile

It'd be nice if Ilene would let us watch the episodes here at Vp  Santa

Would be nice, but

I'm not sure she'd be all that into the idea of special favors for a community that's criticized her (though rightfully so) at every opportunity. As Robin said, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Don't hold your breath.

Under the circumstances that is highly unlikely.

what

are these "circumstances" that you speak of? ... IC's been critiqued on every les site ... AE, fb, L Word devotion sites ... not only Vp.

I mean, we're all ultimately her audience (bar some straight people who will watch for the perve factor)  Smile

Circumstances like the site

Circumstances like the site being shut down and Grace among others being fired precipitously.  Zero notice.  Then total and complete silence from IC.  Not even a 'sorry, guys'.  I know you're going to disagree with me and blame it all on Showtime because you can't accept that IC might have had a hand in all of this but regardless of who made the decision she didn't even send the bloggers a 'so long, it's been great working with you all' email.  

As for the interrogation tapes- What's that got to do with VP being given some okay to stream the new show?  See above for reasons why that's probably not going to happen.

I

assumed that permission had to given to screen those here .. but I can see why they were given away.

Yeah, what Robin said. It's

Yeah, what Robin said. It's not that we have a bad relationship with IC, per se, it's just that we pretty much have no relationship with her to speak of at this point. She's been AWOL since OC tanked in 2008.

Interesting. Not even a

Interesting. Not even a "Thanks for trying guys, it just wasn't meant to be" from IC?

At least Jennifer Beals took an interview with someone on another site and pretended to be sad about OC.

"Fight Prime Time. Read a Book"

So where

did the interrogation tapes come from?

Showtime.com. Those were

Showtime.com. Those were available to the entire interwebs, in the U.S. at least. We just reposted them here. Additionally, sometimes premiere episodes of brand new shows on premium cable channels end up being given away for free online just for promo, and if that is the case with the first ep of The Real L Word: LA, we'll do our best to see that it ends up here. Other than that as a very slight possibility, for real, don't hold your breath!

Bad, Bad Mommy!

She's a bad, bad mommy, and all are well to be rid of her. I mean, what kind of heartless bitch just locks her kids out of the house with no notice? Better to make a clean break of it, lest you sit around waiting for birthday cards that never come.

Showtime

was a bad daddy, but no gay seems to have boycotted them.

IC's kind of been cast as the poster face of les corporate greed (or something?) ... but it's pretty obvious Showtime had no long term commitment to keeping that website running, post L Word demise.

Our life went on.

I dropped them

I wrote Showtime a blatant shame gram and enclosed a copy of the cancellation notice I sent to my cable provider. What they did to the folks working the site, and the community that was so invested in it, was horrendous.

Weird...

They have a far more extensive set up when they shoot in LA. They've invaded The Betty quite a few times with a whole lot more people. Reality television is henceforth shattered for me. It's worse than that time I decided to watch a season of Top Chef with my story editor friend. BAD. IDEA.

I lack Minnie's will power,

I lack Minnie's will power, and therefore TOTES want to hear what you learned about Top Chef from your friend!

Top Chef

I am not going to ask you what terrible things you found out about shooting Top Chef because I am a fan of that show and am even wearing my Top Chef tee shirt this afternoon. Ignorance is bliss.

Also, I figure I will want to watch The Real L Word when it debuts because I am a glutton for punishment.

Still searching for the right brainy quote.

If you ever need help with that gluttony thing...
