  "The L Word" (2004)
A gay marriage coupled coupled with a gay divorce, the excitement of new love coupled with the misery of a cheating partner, and sex is sometimes a beautiful expression of companionship and sometimes a meaty, awkward, disgusting mess.
There is no mistaking that, "L" has an out-in-your-face feminist agenda to shake up and reshape the world's traditional norms with the questions posed by the simple existence of the characters.
I won't say that "L" is going to "strike a civil rights blow" for "progressives", but I will say that its sliver demographic has never been so well spoken for and the show never stops going all out to entertain.

 The L Word | PopMatters Television Review
The good news is that The L Word has done away with the Henry Miller-esque dream sequences that opened several episodes last year.
Now that The L Word has considered many of the broad topics of the day (with the notable exception of a same-sex wedding or commitment ceremony), it can do its own thing.
She writes that The L Word has made a "rather blatant attempt to give the stereotype of the dowdy dyke a wide berth." Moira is, however, unsophisticated and working class; you can almost feel the dirt under her unmanicured fingernails.

 Variety.com - Award Central 2007  - The L Word
Howard Stern has built a lucrative career in part on the premise that men are infatuated with lesbians, but it's doubtful his listeners will flock to "The L Word" -- an old-fashioned soap with a "Sex and the City" sensibility, where the gals who assemble and gossip happen to sleep with each other.
Still, to approach the relative success of its obvious companion, "Queer as Folk," "The L Word" will need to cross over to a broad audience of female viewers -- straight as well as gay -- who can identify with this fairly well-drawn cast of characters.
No, "The L Word" works or fails as a primetime serial calibrated to those with a taste for the genre, "Melrose Place" with a little extra nudity.
