L Word Becomes a Reality TV Show

Filed Under Entertainment, Lesbians 

While doing research for an article I’m writing for the Examiner, I learned The L Word is becoming a reality tv show. The show is scheduled to start airing sometime in 2010:

THE REAL L WORD: Los Angeles will follow a group of real-life, high-profile, left coast lesbians as they go about their daily lives, at work and play. The producing team plans to show viewers that the cast can be every bit as glamorous, fashionable, fabulous and even as cutthroat as their celebrated-but-fictional counterparts.

We are currently seeking ladies from all walks of life to be the pioneering voices in this important series. Must be based in Los Angeles or moving soon to the area.

We want all types, from the power of Bette to the mojo of Shane.

Are they admitting that The L Word was never a show designed to feature everyday lesbians, but instead “high-profile, left coast lesbians” who are rich, thin and beautiful? I sure think they are!

Who’s happy about this new reality tv show? I’ll tell ya who. All those lesbian webmasters whose web content was 90% related to The L Word, that’s who. Those websites experienced amazing growth by piggybacking off The L Word’s success, especially AfterEllen.com.

In the meantime, I hope all the lesbian web series that sprung up after The L Word’s demise will continue to grow their online audience. Personally, I’d rather watch a lesbian web series than watch a reality tv show full of rich, white, left coast lezzies. Call me crazy (or bitchy, you pick).
