News, Reviews & Commentary on Lesbian and Bisexual women in Entertainment and the Media

Best. Lesbian. Week. Ever. (Sept. 7, 2007)

WHAT IS IT WITH LESBIANS AND TOYS?
AfterEllen.com reader Moaning Blues alerted us to the first online Spanish lesbian series, Apples. Created by Veronica Segoviano and Olga Marti, the series is set in Spain and is about a group of lesbian friends, a mannequin and a stuffed cat who live in two apartments within the same building. (Thanks, Nicole, for translating!)

Yes, you read that right: a mannequin (named Cari) and a stuffed cat (named Chichi) co-star in this little online serial.

Don't worry — in addition to these odd inanimate objects, there are a lot of lesbians. Here are a few of them:

Sam (Marta Villar)

Doc (Saskia Guanche)

Nanai (Karen Owens)

Ade (Gloria March)

The first episode, titled "Errors," is streaming now at the series' website. Although I don't speak Spanish, I do understand the international language of dyke drama, and this show seems like it's overflowing with hookups, breakups, make-ups and enough sex to make it too racy to stream on AfterEllen.com. But we can show you the trailer:



My favorite part? The series' tagline, which translates to "Seven girls, two apartments, many problems."

Word.
