That thing they do

Eighteen days until the season 4 premiere of “The L Word,” not that anyone is counting. It’s the show we love to hate, but dammit if we can‘t stop watching. I’ll let you in on a little secret, I got the screeners for the first half of the season last week. Amazingly, I resisted the urge to sit through all 6 hours in a sleep-deprived row. After watching the premiere, I can report that the writing staff hasn’t lost it’s touch for character personality whiplash and one-sentence write-offs. Ahhh, consistent inconsistency. I’ll post a more formal preview later. For now, enjoy the latest promo with its new couplings and assorted comminglings.
