    The L Word: Let's Get This Party Started
    The producers of Jenny's movie wrangle with her over casting, while one ambitious actress pulls out all stops to land the lead in the film; the gal pals attend the opening of a lesbian club that will be in direct competition with the Planet; Bette has an unusual reaction to Tina's new dating situation; and military investigators pay a surprise visit to Alice. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Look Out, Here They Come!
    Tina's dating woes continue; Shane snags a last-minute job styling hair for a wedding party that leads to a number of erotic brushes; Tasha opens up to Alice and tells her why she didn't ship out to Iraq with her detachment. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Loyal and True
    Helena's return proves to be advantageous to Kit; Jodi surprises Bette with her latest "sculptural expression"; Tasha's post-military career choice concerns Alice; Adele pulls an on-set power play that infuriates Tina; Phyllis confronts Shane about her relationship with Molly; emotional fireworks erupt at the film's wrap party. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    Adele's "All About Eve" machinations lead to a power play on the set of the movie; Bette and Jodi come to a momentous decision regarding their relationship; Kit gets involved in a showdown with Cindi and Dawn about control of The Planet. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Lifecycle
    The ladies gear up to take part in a bike-ride fundraiser for breast cancer, where Bette and Tina divulge some surprising news; Shane's "straight-girl crush" Molly turns stalker; Jenny shoots a sexy video with Niki; and Alice and Tasha have a surprise of their own in store. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Liquid Heat
    The owners of Shebar convene a sitdown with Kit to "mediate grievances and lesbo turf;" Shane has an encounter with her "straight-girl crush;" Jenny fires an "actor-boy" who hit on Niki; and Tina and Bette decide to see a therapist together to come to some kind of understanding. Also, Max's admirer makes the first step; and Tasha tries to adjust to life out of the military. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Lay Down the Law
    Niki's managers go into damage control after her scandalous behavior hits the magazines; Alice testifies at Tasha's military hearing; and Bette and Tina reach an understanding in their relationship. Also, Shane takes a shine to Phyllis's straight daughter; and Jodi throws a dinner party and invites Tina and a date. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    Henry engages in more attempts to undermine the Catholic Church's power in England, and sends his personal chaplain To Germany to learn more about the Lutherans; Anne decides it is time for her and the king to consummate their relationship; Charles Brandon begins to sow seeds of doubt regarding Anne's virtue. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Lady of the Lake

    The L Word: LGB Tease
    Helena gets tossed into jail for ripping off Catherine; Jenny finagles a chance to direct the movie of her book, leading her and Tina to butt heads; Shane's promiscuity successfully sabotages her plan to move in with Paige; and Bette's welcome-home gesture to Jodi backfires. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The Tudors: Everything Is Beautiful
    Henry succeeds in having himself declared "Supreme Head of the Church and Clergy in England," but with a caveat; Pope Paul III (Peter O'Toole) has his own idea about how to deal with the "Great Matter" of the king's annulment; Henry selects an obscure cleric (Hans Matheson) to be his personal chaplain; an attempt is made on the life of Bishop Fisher (Bosco Hogan); Henry issues a command to Queen Katherine. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Lesbians Gone Wild
    On-set clashes among actresses in Jenny's film slow down the production while the star makes a public spectacle of herself; Bette must babysit Phyllis's grown-up daughter, who abhors her mother's new lifestyle; the strictly by-the-book colonel (Kelly McGillis) prosecuting Tanya's discharge case arrives on base; Alice auditions for a network daytime talk show; Jenny's assistant, Adele, continues her duplicitous behavior. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Lights! Camera! Action!
    As production on the film based on Jenny's novel begins, she is forced to deal with a problematic star; Tina and Bette try to sort out their feelings regarding their rekindled relationship; there's lots of animosity between the gang and the owners of the new lesbian bar competing with The Planet. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    The L Word: Lookin' at You, Kid
    The ladies are invited to a party at Jenny's home to meet the actresses portraying them in her movie, but not all of the gang are happy with the selections; Tina and Bette deal with the aftermath of their romantic encounter; a gay NBA star is outed by Alice after he utters a homophobic slur on national TV. ~ Ray Stackhouse, Rovi

    Posted by: from Alabama on 11/07/2008I have to say that these Showtime programs on DVD are great. I have Showtime, so I watch the series but the DVD collection is great to keep the plot fresh. I like to watch one each night and everything stays fresh on my mind. The collection is a little pricey, but it is everywhere. I got it from Best Buy on sale so it wasn't too bad. If you haven't seen the L Word- beware; it is not for the ultra conservative. It is a great show with real issues and lots of fun! Easy to get addicted!

    I love the L word

    Posted by: from Brandon, Ms on 10/28/2008I just started watching "The L word" from the beginning a few weeks ago. I have always liked the few episodes that I caught on showtime or LOGO and when I saw the first two season on sale for $20 each, I bought them both. I watched every episode, 3- 4 per evening after work, and the rest on the weekend untill I had finished them all. I immediately started looking for seasons 3 and 4 and am now working on those. I just cant get enough. When I finish watching seaons 3 and 4, season five should be in my mailbox waiting to be unwrapped. I will be watching "the L work" as long as they keep making it. Shannon

    Posted by: from Laredo, TX on 10/22/2008I've only seen the first four episodes. I think it was super awesome. It left me at the edge of my seat. I flipping love the L word. All the actresses are good at acting and they are gorgeous.
