Doesn't sound like The L Word!!!!

Ok this is just a small unimportant forum about Logo's editing for The L Word. It's ok but quite often while I'm watching it the actors' voices get kinda small...I know weird, is this just something I'm noticing? I mean not really squeaky but alot smaller than the actor's normal tone...even Marina!

If you haven't noticed the by all means don't try! lol But I just wanted to know if anyone else was experiencing this.

Actually it just came back from commercial and I'm realizing that the character's lips are moving about a mili-second ahead of the speech. 

I know this isn't a big deal, It's about time The L Word made it to network television. So I'm not complaining....it's just something I noticed.

you are right, it does not sound like them. Betts voice is way off. I'm with you. it's a shame that anyone who had not had the chance to see this on Showtime is not hearing it as it should be,  with their natural voices.

Precisely! Logo's airing

Precisely! Logo's airing the first season on Thursday night and the audio/editing is kinda F'd up! And when Bette is speaking to the board it's REALLY F'd up!!! Sounds nothing like her. 

And yes when it was on Showtime everything was fine...I'm assuming it has something to do with the new editing cause they have to cut the sex and curse words....maybe they screwed something up lol

I noticed that their voices seem distorted or off-pitch too.  It sounds like the audio is playing at the wrong speed or the cast took a few hits from a helium balloon.  Hope they fix that.

I'm so happy someone else

I'm so happy someone else realized that! I was watching last night from the one i tivo'd last week and I was typing and looked up to figure out who was talking because I didn't recognize the voice and it was Bette! The pitch was waaaaaaay too high, that's just not Jennifer Beals's natural tonal inflection, very odd. I have a bit of what you might call a "phono-graphic memory" so I apologize for the technical critiquing lol. But yes, it is definitely different.

Okay, I thought it was just me. I was watching and thinking, how the hell did I ever listen to bette's voice.
