No new L Word in Canada

It sucks to be Canadian, on the eve before the season premiere of L Word season 4, because there is no SHOWTIME access in Canada. For some bizarre reason we don't get access to HBO or SHOWTIME.

What makes this even more frusterating is that the L Word is filmed in Canada but we don't get to see it, unless we wait a year for it to appear on Showcase or download it. I ask you where is the justice.

So my American lesbian friends enjoy enjoy the premiere and please upload the torrent for the premiere episode as soon as possible - so those of us who are forgotten can enjoy it too.

Hi shdeb. I have digital

Hi shdeb. I have digital cable through MTS, a major service provider here in Manitoba. I also subscribe to 4 Movie central channels for $12.99/month. You can get Movie Central if you have satellite too, my parents do..In my opinion, it's worth it because I get to see L word as soon as those in the states do. I also get access to some other HBO series' as soon as they air.

Cable

Thanks Jlennon50 for letting me know.

i have cable...sigh  i guess i will have to wait untill the fall or find another way... sniff

You would think with a blockbuster show like the L Word that they would have  it on the sametime as the US.

I hope you enjoyed the  first episode.

You lucky duck :)

Yup, if you have satellite-small dish either Bell expressvu you can see the current season on Movie Central 4 in the west. Not sure if it's the same in the East.

Alice...always the best!

I think Leisha is just great!...Alice saves the fricking show all the time.

I do hope they fix season 3 mess, so lets wait and hope now...oh! and it is too bad that you guys in Canada cant see the show! ...I am in the Caribbean and I get Showtime....cant understand why you dont?

Well, hasta la vista !....waiting for a L word with more of Alice!! Bette and Marina....! please ! ADIOS to Tina,Max and Jenny already!!

Muchos besos,

Oz - Cancellation

Hey,

Here in Oz we finally finished the first season (amidst controversy of course) and saw only a couple of episodes of the second season before it was taken off!

Not to mention the fact that it was on at 11-12pm with nothing on before to cool your heels with.

Although it was on network tv, sadly i'm not sure whether the network has any intentions of reinstating the show's status and if so, moving it to a decent time slot.

Taking into consideration the somewhat depressing staple of aussie tv (compilation of reality this and reality that shows - thank gosh for cable) i doubt that we will see the L Word grace our shores for some time...

Leaving this poor little aussie to rely on downloads :)
