Summary: 5 Stars
This set has the greatest sex scenes ever. I watch them all the time "alone" if you know what I mean...DVD Review: Great if you like Soft Porn...boring otherwise
Summary: 3 Stars
While season four added too many plots resulting in a series that felt disjointed and characters who moved like robots through plot twists completely lacking foreshadowing, series five goes off in an even less satisfying direction.
The scripts for this season can be summed up in two sentences, "We've run out of storylines. Everyone please remove your clothes before the audience drifts off to sleep."
It is pretty sex with nice bodies and well done lesbian oriented sex, but with few exceptions, don't expect any stronger plots than the average X rated movie.
DVD Review: Love IT!
Summary: 5 Stars
As with the rest of the L Word Series, this is a winner! I love the characters and the plot. As time goes on, and the seasons change, so does the intensity. The writers really capture present day, adult lesbians in a kind of pop-culture genre. I love Shane... but this season she is over the top! I also love Tasha... mmmm hmmm... very good! I live overseas so I don't get to see the series on Showtime and have to wait until Fall each year to get it on DVD. I can't wait to see Season 6.DVD Review: good buy
Summary: 5 Stars
The delivery was good, the dvd was in excellant condition, and the price was affordable.
Description of The L Word - The Complete Fifth Season
Genre: Television: Series
Rating: UN
Release Date: 21-OCT-2008
Media Type: DVD
In a clever move, the producers of The L Word use season five to revisit the origins of their own creation. After Jenny (Mia Kirshner) sets out to direct the silver-screen edition of her novel, Lez Girls, she enters a parallel world populated by actors playing thinly-veiled versions of the central cast (in a typical Jenny move, she sleeps with the star who portrays "Jesse"). This post-modern plotline brings newcomers up to speed, while offering early-adapters new perspectives on the past. Naturally, the shoot doesn't go smoothly. When the increasingly self-absorbed Jenny hires adoring fan Adele (ER's Malaya Rivera Drew) as her assistant, events take on All About Eve overtones. Since Jenny is turning her life into a movie, it only makes sense for the two to bleed into each other. In other developments, Tina (Laurel Holloman) and Bette (Jennifer Beals) consider reconciliation, Helena (Rachel Shelley) does time in prison, Alice (Leisha Hailey) takes her penchant for gossip too far, Tasha (Rose Rollins) fights to stay in the military, and Shane (Katherine Moennig), a dead ringer for Warren Beatty in Shampoo, rejoins the ranks of the single, only to fall for straight girl Molly (Cybill Shepherd's daughter, Clementine Ford).
In a more melodramatic, but equally entertaining move, Dawn Denbo (Elizabeth Keener), proprietor of new hotspot SheBar makes life hell for the Planet, but Kit (Pam Grier) and her loyal clientele refuse to go down without a fight--even if they don't offer "Lesbian Turkish Oil Wrestling." Aside from the fact that Max (Daniela Sea) continues to get short shrift, The L Word's fifth year proves the show has more than a little lusty and gutsy life left in it, and was renewed for a sixth season. Extras include cast biographies and episodes of Showtime's Dexter, Californication, and This American Life. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
