The L Word Fan Wiki!

If, like me, you occasionally find yourself trawling wikipedia to check out L Word minutia, such as the name of the hot French girl Jenny got with at the end of Season Three, you'll be pleased to know that gay geekiness has reached new heights, with the L Word Fan Wiki!

There's already been some controversy, with one Shane fan editing Carmen's page to leave comments such as "raver skank", "manipulative", and "Shane left Carmen after two years abuse at her hands".

Ok, so blanking your girlfriend because you had a dream she flew away with a bird is pretty weird, but over-reaction much? And lets not forget that these are
fictional characters, ladies...

But still, who can resist the temptation to spend hours writing your own version of why dana should never had died, or why Tina and Bette have to get back together, and feel that no, you are not wasting time, you are in fact doing a service to other fans? Not me!

Some Things You Probably Didn't Know About The L Word

Eric Mabius wasn't the original choice to play Tim.He was originally played by Scott Bairstow (pictured below).

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?

Just realised I still have fourteen shiny new promo shots to share, so theres gonna be a hell of a lot more posts, as for some reason I can only put five up at once.














Okay, so here we have Tina with a very fixed smile...maybe Helena just told a joke.








Ooh, Bette's got a wine-glass, could she have fallen off the wagon again, a la her Season Two breakdown?











Oh, and one of Jenny looking quite sweet, which she usually does.As long as she doesn't open her mouth, and speak, like, actual words.
