I've watched every season of the L word, even the painful season when Bette and Tina (my favorite couple) were apart. I'm sad that this innovative show is in it's final season.
I was happy it was announced early on that the 6th season would be the final one. I figured this would give the creator Ilene a chance to send the series of in proper fashion. While I didn't expect a season full of roses and sunshine, there are things I don't understand.
Why introduce another character (Kelly) and create questions of Bette's faithfulness. Bette has been portrayed as a serial cheater and it's not a nice picture. Are we not creative enough to test Bette and Tina's relationship without introducing another woman. I know nothing happens, but just the whole setup is old. It wouldn't be bad to see these two woman together without all the drama.
Why have Max become pregnant, while the idea could have been interesting it's a lot to introduce in a final shortened season. Also, I think we've OD on the real life pregnant woman story.
Why the big secrecy of who killed Jenny. Maybe it's just me, but I could care less who killed Jenny. My only question is why it took 6 seasons for her to go.
I hope this series has the proper ending. It doesn't have to be a happily ever after, but I hope the fans get what they deserve for the time they've invested in the show.

totally agree with you. this is RETARDED season. they are going to snazzy rather than the quality we've expected. i have watched every episode hoping that the next one will be better and sadly for the past three seasons it just HASNT BEEN. Things really started to go wrong when they killed dana.
i dont understand why shane, the serial lover, has to fall in love every season, wasn't it hotter when she was just banging anything that moved!
as a lesbian, i'm sad to think that this is how we are to behave! i'm over it, bring back queer as folk, at least there we had an accurate representation of lesbians
