Like, that storyline about the glass sculpture thing with the pattern in the tiles by the rose garden and stuff? OMG.

Late entry, here -

'Barney Fife' from the Les Girls set security is Joe Howard aka George Frankly of Mathnet from PBS' Square One, among other things, but that was his biggest role, because Mathnet kicks ass!

As does your

Would it help to know that I'm going and that it is going to be my b-day that weekend?????

And yes, my head it's going to explode too :P

2008-02-13T00:07:00.000-08:00

Great recap! I'm glad you mentioned Phyllis, I'm constantly surprised that she's a character on the show. What's with all the crazy? Isn't that usually reserved for fabulously wealthy people? She's a Dean! (Or something else whose title I can't remember atm, Rector? Chancellor?)

Also, Snazzypants, I'm so with you RE the stove being left on. I was like WTF that's even a gas stove,

It's just my birthday...I know it's lame, but it's an old screenname that I just haven't gotten around to changing yet. I went for the easiest log-in.

2008-02-12T15:43:00.000-08:00

last time i said i wasn't gonna respond to everyone one by one again and then cookies pointed out that i totally love all of you and will totally do it again and she's totally right. howevs, i'm trying to moderate myself, like taking one drink to not be an alcoholic, and therefore am limiting myself to maximum of 1 sentence per person. Really, this is what it's like to live inside my brain,

2008-02-12T13:23:00.000-08:00

Great recap as always, I can tell it's a good one because people at my office started looking at me like I was crazy and laughing for no reason.

By the way, are you going to the Kelka reunion in June????

not moving, no worries!

2008-02-12T07:56:00.000-08:00

Freaking brilliant recap. of a freaking brilliant episode. I think I'm offically in love with the L word again. Keep giving me sex scenes like that - and I'm apt to become a debauched promiscious lesbian. Really.

Posted my own recap at my blog and borrowed your text of the opening scene (hope that is okay) linked back to you and gave credit where credit is due!

2008-02-11T22:25:00.000-08:00

Definitely one of the better episodes of the Season so far.

They're shopping at Holt's in the shopping sequence - because apparently that's where fashionable Vancouverites shop.

Holt Renfrew is a high-end Canadian department store - the pink bags were a dead giveaway.

2008-02-11T19:43:00.000-08:00

jennys look to bev during the best jenny moment ever, that 'yeah, thats what i said' look made me laugh instead of cry through the theme song.
an amazing episode all around, and i only watched it because your recap said it was worth it. totally was, thanks.

2008-02-11T19:16:00.000-08:00

I really, truly think that the only thing which could make this episode any better would have been the dramatic removal of Emi--Adele's glasses by Jenny, shortly followed by her calling herself a miracle worker.

The episode was great. I don't have complaints. Not even about Bette and Tina.

The show is making fun of itself in a glorious way.

Max is such a cutie.

2008-02-11T18:09:00.000-08:00

hay,
Erm did u say that Lara Croft doesn't count?????????????
w.t.f im going straight then?!

jenny is rocking my world at the moment!!!
any sex scene with bette is worth rewinding(oh ye and the i love you bit aswell,cheers i missed it)
im in greement that alice makes me also want to give her a hug naked!!

by far this episode was ace for all kinds of reasons

2008-02-11T18:02:00.000-08:00

Was nobody else worried that Bette left the stir fry on the stove when she hooked up with Tina? I mean yes, soon I was carried away by the hotness of their hookup, but initially I was concerned that Angie was going to return from Disneyland to find her momma's house all burned down. (Arson! Arson!)

Also - thank you for pointing out Jenny's puffalumpery and the show's reliance on random

2008-02-11T13:04:00.000-08:00

Just wanted to let you know how much I love these recaps. I crack up every time. Oh, and just to answer your query, yes there were subtitles on the regular airing...it was like "tell them your judgment was clouded because Professor Lerner (yes, I sadly know her last name too) is an incredibly hot fuck." Not so much. Oh yes, and thanks to Hav's rewind because I somehow missed the I love you part

2008-02-11T11:02:00.000-08:00

this whole kit <3 guns thing is really worrying me, i feel like it's a PSA so there's gonna have to be a victim. hopefully not little angie. maybe adele once she goes full-out psycho. anyway who cares, they already killed dana.

"Also, there's no such thing as a Big Hollywood Lesbian Movie, welcome to America, Lara Croft Tomb Raider doesn't count."
LOL maybe not officially

2008-02-11T09:48:00.000-08:00

good recap, per ushe. one mistake I noticed, though. Fact: Both the Ten Commandments and CatFancy Magazine were originally inscribed on stone tablets and delivered via spiral toss from God to Moses on the cold, windswept slopes of Mt. Ararat. America, like Lez Girls, did indeed begin on paper.

Also, how DOES Jenny know that Bette/Bev says, "Let's make a baby"?

If Tina wonders

2008-02-11T08:04:00.000-08:00

Where's C.J. Cregg?

I didn't realize it until just right now, but you are correct. The L Word cast the wrong former West Winger. It wasn't Joey Lucas this show needed; it was C.J. Cregg!

2008-02-11T07:53:00.000-08:00

this episode renewed my love and faith in the l word, although being serious, it never really left. good job boo.

i feel as though hav's new found love for the show is further proof that moving to la is a bad idea. right? great terrific.

THIS right here...may be the funniest thing you've ever written:

"It's okay, clearly there's no safer place for her to be than on Splash Mountain with the County Bear Jamboree and Kit "what if the motherfucker has a gun" Porter. She's probs like "Girl, you know it be a small world after [trademark up-tick] ALLLLL!"

That poor poor child.
