Just when you thought it was safe to turn on your television....we're back, and so is The L Word! Yes, thanks to Logo (AfterEllen.com's parent company), we can enjoy Season 1 of the groundbreaking lesbian drama in all of it's tear-stained, lusty, and lovelorn glory. In fact, the pilot episode of the series is so packed-to-the-gills with melodrama that they had to split it into two episodes for syndication. We followed suit with our vlog and did the same, so look for the second-half of our pilot recap next week. This week Jill, Dara, and I reminisce about where we were when we first watched the show and our introduction to the lovely L ladies. We also reenact Tina and Bette's infamous trip to Dan Foxworthy's office "Tina" (Karman) and "Bette" (Jill) in therapy with So rejoin the fray with us for a trip in the Wayback machine to five years ago, when The L Word premiered and the only power Jenny Schecter could wield was her ability to try our patience with her cluelessness about lesbians and her self-indulgent autobiographical fiction. We're Getting Nowhere: The L Word Pilot Episode, Part 1
Note: We won't be uploading the videos to Veoh anymore, as we've been experiencing too many difficulties with that site. Submitted by on June 26, 2008 - 11:26am. |

YUMMY!!!
AHHH that was AWESOME!
I haven't watched the first season in a while, so watching the first ep again was cool.
Yay for the return of the reenactments :) loved Dara just acting all nonchalant it's perfect. Karman you've got Tina down to a T now. Jill as a busy Bette with the shades and phone, spot on!
can't wait for the next blog!

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!UR BACK I

welcome back!
So glad to see you gals again!
Sad there's no more Veoh. The videos don't play on my home computer where I usually watch the vlogs. Are you guys looking into some other video site to upload vlogs onto as an alternative?
damn, video not working for
oh snap!
Just when I was about to head to bed, this piece of heaven pops in. I'll make sure to watch first thing tomorrow. Glad you're back ladies!

I found it a little too short..... but it was great as always. I also think that Karina Lombard is really hot, way hotter than jennifer beals.
And your reenactment was fabulous. I loved the wigs!!!
You're back!
Welcome back.
First episode, I don't remember where I was when I first watched it either. But I do remember Karina Lombard. DAYUM indeedy.
Everyone is crazy about Jennifer Beals, and she's awesome, but for me, it's always been Karina Lombard.
Jippie
Yay, you guys are back! I've missed you :)
Only part 1 today? Wanna see more! :-P
I can't even think straight...
yay
that reinactment was great. It truely captured every little bit of that scene in a more comedic way. The ONLY thing i wish i could have seen was Jill patting Karman on the leg like a million times, because Bette did that in the scene so much and it was just so weird to me. That's such a "mom" thing to do! hahah
I missed this vlog and i'm glad it's back! =]
woo woo
the wig
the wig on karman is just hilarious!! LOL I'm so happy you're back! Enjoyed it a lot.
Can I just say that I practically know every line from the Get Smart trailer by now:p

lines from the get smart trailer
not gloat, but I don't seem
not gloat, but I don't seem to be getting the ads... I don't know why, but out of the all the vlogs I've viewed (from Brunch with Bridget, to Liz to gay girls that game) I've not seen a single ad.
I had no idea what anyone was talking about until Sarah mentioned it somewhere
YAY!
Missed this!!
You're back! I've missed you and the fabulous reenactments. The only complaint I have is it was too short, but what else is new? Good to see you ladies again...(and kudos for Jill in a tank top). Can't wait til next week :^)
*Gasp* Oh my!
I had no idea that you three would be back! This is great.
Never met a pearl quite like you that could shimmer and rot at the same time through
Jill & Karman were very
Jill & Karman were very convincing as tina & Bette...Jill looks good in a blazer
I agree!
*does a happy dance*
Youre back!! Yay! Three of my favorite people are back to enlighten us on the awesome and bad shit of the L Word's coveted and most beloved first season. Mmm I's all excited.
Love your profile pic!
I love your profile pic - Bridget is CRAZY! Thats all...
*don't judge me*
Karmen
Karmen looks exactly like Tina :D

Loved it (as always)
Loved this, and you guys, as always.
But I do have to echo what some of the previous commenters have said... much too short! I think we're all so used to seeing you ramble for an hour that this pithy 20 minutes just seemed like a tease ;)
Looking forward to next week, and crossing my fingers that you bring back some of our favorite guestbians!
Also, love Karman's shirt. A lot.
YAY!
Welcome back! Finally made my computer time worth while. Ok, it was a little weird how much Karman looked like Laurel Holloman....
With the facial mannerisms and the voice? Crazy.
And the scene where Bette wipes her face...I think I remember either a behind the scenes or a commentary on that episode someone said it was a combo of improv and someone telling her to do that. It's on the DVD somewhere...
And WOOHOO! Jill in business attire! My day is made. ;)
3!!!
Finally!
Making the popcorn as i text. Watching you 3, the butter will melt on its own.
WOOOO
I was having severe We're getting nowhere withdrawal symptoms :D Go Dara, karman and jill u rock :D :D
" i *Heart* Oy oy lady"
Thrilled
that you ladies are back.
Quality re-enacment; K and J you're very good as Bette and Tina and hilarious to boot.
You three are absolutely fabulous x
WGN!!!
YESSSSSS!
*faints*
I've been DYING for this!
P.S. What time does TLW air on Logo?
FINALLY!!
my favorite vlog is back. I've been missing you three fabulous ladies!
and i missed jill's cats!
wonderful, thank you
AWESOMEEEEEE
It's great to watch your vlog again ladies ^^
Amazing re-enactment !!
I agree with the 3 of you, there was too much hetero sex! I wanted to vomit sometimes lol
Can't wait for the 2nd part of the vlog
love this show!!
i was wowed.
question!
Jackie Jones, who does your hair? :D
p.s. love this show too!
hot mess
Venison Jerky
LOL! Nice touch. Also, I have to admit that I share the exam room sex fantasy. Despite my efforts, I cannot help but think about it when I'm on that table (proabably doesn't help that my doc is a very nice looking woman). As for the show, what I remember most is how excited I was to be seeing a show about lesbians after having grown up with NOTHING. Even Will & Grace (as much as I enjoyed that series) never really included us, and when they did it was usually an offensive stereotypical version of what a lesbian is. When it was over, I too complained about all the hetero-sex (big fan of Eric Mabius, but had no desire to see his thrusting ass as much as I was forced to) but was uncontrollably addicted to it after only one episode. Beautiful women, unapologetically realistic sex scenes, characters with layers that (hate em or love em) were interesting, pre-Betty exceptional use of music, and all for us! Can't wait to see the second half of WGN. Oh, how I've missed this show!
Awesome!
Awesome, you guys are back! I loved the reenactment. And Karman really rocks the wig and somehow looks exactly like Laurel Holloman!
Karman was perfect as Tina
She had the head movements and facial expressions down. I was going to blow these off since the show's not even in my top 10, but the VLogs are too fun to miss.
Your friend,

OMG!! New WGN!!!
SQUEEEEE!
*impatiently waits for episode to download whilst simultaneously cursing my super slow crappy broadband connection*
Echo...echo...echo
I watched the vlog before... I read the comments, and I'm sorry, but I've to echo here: I MISSED you also and it was wayyyyyy to short!!!! (But it's better than nothing at all).
Karman&Jill you nailed the characters (Tina+Bette), you deserve some cameo time in the last season of TLW.
ahh
it's good to have this back
you were missed!
Karman as "Tina"
hehehe
Thought the pilot was really great
Thanks for giving me a great excuse to watch the first season again.
I had forgotten how great the pilot was.
Oh man Karman, that was one ugly wig.

I have missed WGN soooo much!
OMG this is fantastic! I have missed the terrible three soooo much! I'm going to watch this immediately! YAY!
*don't judge me*
"go back to Glover..."
"those were magical days...before you started...slamming jews..."
Gotta say it's the best when the marbles quotes start coming out.
