I think most babies are cute.






People, check yourselves before you wreck yourselves. Don't be presumptuous and racist, all at the same time.

And, if you happen to be a "mixed race" baby and you are enjoying this post, thanks for reading! You're super cute. ;)

Reason #1 why I miss The L Word:


Angelica!

Okay, reason #2 why I miss The L Word: Every episode of the show passes The Bechdel Test.

What is The Bechdel Test, you ask?




- From FeministFrequency.com via The A.V. Club.

The last show I remember that passed The Bechdel Test before The L Word was The Baby-Sitters Club:





Oh, early 90s children's television shows. Where would those baby-sitters be now? (Kristy would probably be on The L Word. You were thinking it, too.)

Here is one of my favorite scenes from Season 4 of The L Word:





Oh Jenny. What a mess.

Readers, can you think of any shows that pass The Bechdel Test? Not even Dora the Explorer makes the cut.

The best part of The L Word


Love love love. Someday, I will be able to afford my own kid.

The worst part of The L Word? Shenny. That couple is made of Fail. I don't even have Showtime anymore, but the thought of Jenny and Shane getting together still makes me cringe.

For straight women who like watching The L Word,



I bring you Dominic Zamprogna. He is basically the only non-annoying straight guy on the show (scroll down to see him "representing") not to mention the only decent looking one my age. I first discovered Dominic on this episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark? So I was super excited when almost fifteen years later, I saw his name on the end credits of this week's episode of The L Word. Coolness! He was also on this Canadian show called Edgemont, which The N really needs to get a hold of so that I can watch it; it's not on DVD. Also, Degrassi can't run forever like ER insists upon doing, and repurposed reruns of Kenan and Kel are not going to cut it.

btw, in last week's episode of The L Word, Dominic's role at the pool party may have been minimal, but it was definitely memorable (wink, nudge). Harvey Keitel-esque, if you will.

Do you readers know of any other obscure 90s heartthrobs getting work? And no, Joshua Jackson is not obscure, especially not in a J. J. Abrams pilot.

Last night on The L Word . . .



(The clip featured above is my favorite sequence from Season 4.)

How is it that Shane is completely self-destructive in every one of her relationships; Helena refuses to get herself out of jail by telling where she hid the money she stole from that scary gambler; Tina finally gave up men because she is fixated on Bette; a pushing-60 Phyllis thinks that she can do better than Joyce; yet Jenny is still the craziest person I have ever seen on TV? This includes the nutcases on every incarnation of the Law & Order franchise. And by "nutcases" I mean both "the police who investigate crime" and "the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders." Elliot and Olivia, I'm talking about you. Munch too. :)

If you missed the Season Five premiere, you can find the edited version here. For all the explicit behavior and conversation, you'll have to order Showtime from your cable provider.

Also, did y'all see the I Love New York 2 Reunion last night? "It" (scroll down to #4) is seriously giving Jenny a run for her money.
