Wow. From sexy half-naked women all making out with each other straight into a women's prison? So much for this show actually being about reflecting the complex trials and tribulations of the lesbian community, huh? This show has been ludicrous for quite some time - and your humble heterosexual male correspondent has watched every luscious second - so a women's prison spinoff makes as much sense as anything else. The show even dealt a bit with women's prison this past season, when rich, pampered Helena got stuck in something out of Lockup: Raw, and almost caught a blade to the throat in the shower:
The spinoff, however, will feature Alice, which can be filed into the category of "saying too much." Does that mean she'll take the rap for Jenny's death, which has already been revealed will happen in the season premiere? Why do the L Word producers feel this overwhelming need to tell us everything that'll happen? Whatever, we'll watch. Especially if the women's prison spinoff is anything like Chained Heat, and someone utters the line "Don't you walk away from me, you chalk-faced whore."
