The L Word:Welcome To Our Planet book states that Tim was originally an anthropologist, but after viewing the pilot, the Showtime executives said that they didn't like that, so the character was rewritten as a swim coach, and as Scott Bairstow wasn't very convincing due to his small frame, they recast Eric Mabius in the role.
However, http://thelwordonline.com/ states the Bairstow lost the role due to allegations of sexual assualt on a minor...Odd how they wanted to gloss over that fact...
Pam Grier's character, Kit, was written completely differently. In the first version of the pilot, she was a lesbian performance artist and videographer, and she had the chart tattooed on her back.
Is it just me, or is that idea just damn weird? The Chart, the massive, tangled web of relationships,shags and one night stands tattooed on her back?
