The L Word Goes Directly to Jail

the_l_word_saison2Can’t get enough of Showtime lesbian drama The L Word? Well, one of its main characters is being sent off to the slammer for murder (murder!), in a lesbian prison spin-off that the network has in the can. Which lady is giving up her Birk’s for prison slippers? Find out after the jump.

The NY Post reports:

“Showtime has confirmed it recently completed a spinoff of “The L Word” in which one the show’s most popular characters, Alice Pieszecki (played by Leisha Hailey), lands in prison for murder.

“It’s tied into ‘The L Word’ storyline this year with the Jenny character that gets killed,” network president Bob Greenblatt tells The Post.

On the series, Alice is a writer who works for LA Magazine. “

@frisky:
Ummm, not so much. The spinoff had been in the planning stages by the end of season five, and frankly, Alice was the frontrunner for getting the spinoff in any case, so this is just the direction Chaiken decided to take the show in. Frankly, I think most L Word viewers would say that Jenny needed to die in season one, and it’s just too bad than anyone has to go to prison for it.

I’m bummed Jenny was my favorite character and I had hoped Alice would get the spin-off but I had hoped it would be her moving to New York for her join that The Viewish show she auditioned for and having a great out life why did such a great character have to end up in prison?

They should have gone with Shane in jail. Über hot if you ask me, that would have made me a fan of the show right away.

@Kit Fair:
No, it’s really not in character for Alice at all, but no doubt Ilene will come up with some lame-ass way to make it happen.

It seems LGBT do explore their lives in this way. Well, i was introduced by one of my friend on the bisexual dating site bimingle.commm. She said this pics is much better than the one on the youtube. That’s right.

Eileen Chaiken is a sellout and has prostituted this once fantastic show into porn for straight men. She’s a pig and so are all the sellouts on this moronic, stupid and idiotic trash.

Season 1. That’s it.

The rest is garbage.

It makes no sense whatsoever for Alice to have murdered Jenny. None…. I love this show and will just be over it if she murders Jenny
