Pre-L: Lunar Cycle

L511: “Lunar Cycle”
Hey, Big Mama C, why so serious? Is it, you know, that time? Look, we get it -- lunar cycle. Lady business. Female troubles. Aunt Flow. But did you really have to go and pack four references to PMS in the first eight minutes? I mean, it’s like I’m watching “There Will Be Blood: The Menstrual Edition.” Oh, and let’s not forget all the treachery, deceit, heartache and pain. Sheesh, no wonder they call it The Curse.

1) Gosh this seems familiar.2) A little awkward with your coffee?3) Hey, you think if we joined forces we’d get more lines?4) Bitchy Brunch, party of seven.5) Dawn Denbo and lover Cindi talk majority shares.6) OK, make that a lot of awkward.7) Lesbian Twinsies Syndrome in its last gasp.8) Who do you think wears the pants in this relationship?9) Christ, she cheated on you. Don’t apologize!10) Say it with flowers Blackberry.11) Thank you all for coming, now please bend over.12) Just wait, it gets better once the pizza girl arrives.13) Have we learned nothing from Paris Hilton, nothing?14) So much……for the……afterglow.15) Either you are with me, or you are with the terrorists.16) Terrorist!17) Shit, are pigs flying?18) There’s a new sheriff in town.19) All eyes on the lesbian.20) When really bad ideas happen to really good people.21) Flirt……much?22) The only way to respond to that “Let’s be friends” crap.23) Dude, does anyone else have the munchies?24) The many personalities of Jenny Schecter:
Suicidal.Crazy.Heartbreaking.25) Guilt in a box.26) Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!27) It’s OK, Angelica’s OK. Though throwing it out in the dumpster? Are you going for a bad idea record, Kit?28) The happy family.

Terrorist? That was awesome.

Is it just me or does Clea Mason look a lot like our favorite soup chef?

What the hell happened to Bette and Tina? It looks like it didn't take Bette long to go back to her cheating ways with Jodi. Geez! Maybe I'm reading it all wrong though. ARGHHHHHHH.

Bette's a big old pussy. How long does it take this chick to just freaking say NO to someone she was with less than a year and who she respects but isn't in love with? The longest farkin breakup in the history of the farkin world!

I agree with Cindy. What the hell happened to Bette and Tina. This is the way Ilene has written them? We've had hardly anything from these two since episode 6 and now we have to be tortured with the Jobette on a continous loop of saying goodbye? FU IC and this time I mean it.

Tina. Run, run far far away from Bette, the 40 plus old cheater/pussy weakling. She is over 40 years old and she still behaves like a tennybopper. A cowardly one at that. Ugh!

BRING BACK THE SOUS CHEF.

Clea Mason and Soup Chef = separated at birth. Seriously. They must have specifically chosen this actress because she looks unnaturally like Lauren Lee Smith.

"Are pigs flying?" LMFAO! Dorothy, you've outdone yourself this week. I have a feeling that hug is going to get me all choked up, even though Jenny's crazy. Love love love Jenny and Tina together!

As for Bette the coward and the longest breakup in history ... f*ck that. Bette is such a farkin' wimp this season, she's practically unwatchable. Stop with the bullsh*t already! I don't care how beautiful she is. The FF button is my friend.

I hate the way they wrote Bette this season. So weak...she had a few strong moments but nothing like previous seasons.

Techincally, she's not really cheating on Tina, since they are not officially together. She and Jodi arent's broken up yet, Jodi is trying to work it out, while Bette is trying to break her down easy. This is where her famous line comes in: 'Some lesbians, you have to break up with them more than one'.

Yes, Melanie Lynskey is now in 2 1/2 Men. But what's important is that she was in Heavenly Creatures and But I'm a Cheerleader!

Haha, hell yes to Shane on the gravity bong.

crap on others...3 years for bette & tina that's enough and you have a lot to do

Only one more pre-L! I'm going to have to start reading Top Chef as some sort of p/recap methadone to ease the withdrawal...

On a side note - what was up with the soundtrack of ep 11?! Did someone mix up the tapes for the L Word with some dodgy made-for-tv thriller?

Also, Melanie Lynskey, so very lovely (sadly straight and married - but the magic of IMDB says it's to the guy who played Lucy's sidekick in D.E.B.S. which is kinda cool!)! More of her please!

this clea character is not attractive on any level. she seems to be a socially arrested woman who can barely articulate herself. is it really plausible that alice would go from two women with strong personalities like dana and tasha, to this milquetoast wet mop? give me a break!

i feel like bette and jodie's break-up was one of the most credible i've seen on the show. it was long, drawn-out, messy, and akward, and lasted an entire episode! it made more sense then shane and paige's one minute breakup.

i actually felt sympathy for jenny...i couldn't believe it. and it was so horrible seeing a gun in that baby's hands real or fake, acting or no acting. that was frightening.
