L Word, The (TV Series)
Aroview: A fiercely determined "queer" series exploring Los Angeles' liberal gay scene, canvasing a tight-knit community of attractive lesbians and their intersecting relationship and identity crises.
Season One's arc develops around as many as eight major characters, shoehorning the bulk of its drama towards new LA resident Jenny's (Mia Kirschner) fallible marriage and her bi-sexual awakening, and Bette's (Jennifer Beals) struggle to retain a career in the arts while trying to conceive a child with long-time partner Tina. While flirtatious and undeniably sexy, innovative prologues and a penchant for taboo-busting creates some weighty commentary on gay issues, making this more than just a "pink" SEX AND THE CITY.
[Note that Seasons 2, 3 & 4 have been withdrawn due to classification costs]
