Steal this Season
Its too bad that Showtime only gave TLW eight more episodes. I'm hoping that the petition to make it a 'full' twelve episode season does some good. Did they use 'writers strike' as an excuse for the missing episodes? Or was it just marked off as the 'economy's fault? (Never did read the news article about it.)
At any rate, I'm hoping TLW will go out with a bang
... or two.
Episode ideas for Season 6:
Lamborghini - Helena is back - lets roll, baby! *Go find v1. Alice!
Lear Jet - Helena is back, part 2: time to join the My-L-High club.
Lucid Dreams - Night falls in Weho, especially the 'Ho' part...
Look Who's Back - Welcome back, Carmen, Dana, Dylan & Lara.
Limbo - Jodi returns to teach everyone her new pole dance skills.
Little John - SheBar reopens as WeeBar, Kit's uppity new daycare.
L Ward - Everyone knew Jenny would end up back there someday.
Love - 'Wedding' (Bette-r this than pregnant) Shane presides.
Louisiana - TiBette honeymoon in bikinis near New Orleans. But...
Looters - They run and hide as thieves steal -all- their clothes!
Lost - B&T wander the bayous, stop often for comforting.
Leftovers - TPTB finally give in; we get to see all deleted scenes!
Feel free to email these ideas to Vancouver...

Leisha Hailey... housewife!?
See Leisha Hailey as a het housewife in 'La Cucina'.
She's opposite Rachel Hunter, who's playing gay.
* A bit of their dialogue below *
There's a screening of it Thursday April 3rd
at the 2008 BACKLOT FILM FESTIVAL.
VETERANS MEMORIAL building
4117 OVERLAND AVE. CULVER CITY, CA.
TICKETS: www.backlotfilmfestival.com
{scroll down to the 4.00 p.m. 'LA CUCINA' listing}
Here's a promo clip from the movie...
'LA CUCINA' (Italian for 'The Kitchen') is an hour and a half long, and there will be a Q&A with the writer and director following this festival screening. From this clip it seems like the film was poorly lit. Haven't seen it yet so I can't truly judge, but it would be a shame if it turns out that the film never made it past the festival circuit just because they hired a rookie director of photography.
I'm sure Leisha chose this role partly because it's so not 'Alice'.
The movie revolves around the preparation of four different meals, and Leisha's character 'Shelly' is linked to two of them. First, she's valiantly trying to make a lasagne while her husband looks on. He decides to order a pizza instead, which upsets pregnant Shelly so she heads out the door and up the stairs to her friend (R.Hunter) Jude’s place. There she finds Jude painstakingly making an Italian feast for her lover Celia, who apparently doesn't appreciate her efforts, either.

IC rocks someone's world
Show someone you care:
Send them a photo of... rocks?
Watching 511's Secret Ingredient 'podcast' you notice the camera pan left to show us these 'break-up' items. When it zooms in, behind the bottles we can see a photo with:
'ILENE - I love you'.
Obviously not from her kids... but what is it?
To me, it looks like a photo of a pile of rocks.
Symbolism?... Random?... Guesses, anyone?

Ivory to Ebony in two steps
Fun from TLW episode 511...
'Oops': When Bette and Jodi are on the sidewalk by Bette's car, the same extra walks by them twice in ten seconds. Then she magically transforms into a black man when B&J turn toward the car.

The Red and The Black
Reading too much into Jenny's red/black boots,
Bette's episode 510 red/black flannel shirt,
and Tina's red/black elevator panties...
It could be another TLW shoutout to Stendhal.
Think back to 'L Word's first season, and the art reference to the Stendhal syndrome: the rapture that overtakes one whilst embracing an unspeakably beautiful work of art.
Well, Stendhal didn't just faint at paintings. He also wrote books, one of which is (ta-da!) 'The Red and The Black'. This novel (remarkable for 1830) dealt with the turmoil of a young man as his planned life is overturned by his passions. One of the earliest books to delve into human psychology and sexual choices, it contains some disturbing imagery, such as his lover kissing the lips of his severed head at the end. But one of the central themes of the book should be recognizable to all TLW fans: ''Stendhal's novel reveals how any individual's desire for another is always 'mediated' by a third party - put crudely, that we desire something (or someone) because we see that someone else desires that thing.'' Ring any bells?
So perhaps these red/black transformations right in front of our viewing eyes are calling out a deep and meaningful reference, if only our slow wits could be coaxed into following along. Or it could just be that JB picked the red shirt, and Jenny's boots plus Tina's panties are yet more continuity errors to add to TLW's growing pile. Your call.

Real reason for Bette's tears
Bette's 510 fashion...
Lez Alert!

Jenny & Niki in 510
the tent scene
*fyi: link below is R-rated material
This extended 'love scene' actually reminded me of Alfred Hitchcock.
He was once told he couldn't do a five minute love scene, that it would be 'too long' and he couldn't get away with it - audiences would find it too lengthy and squirm in their seats. Plus the studio execs and the 'standards board' would never go for it, etc.
His reply? 'I can if there's a bomb under the bed.'
That's exactly what this does... we've got the menace of Adele sitting in wait, plus everyone can guess that the camera = trouble.
So even people who don't find the scene hot still stay interested.
Speaking of unexpected videos, here's another:
Jennifer Beals from the 1991 film "Blood and Concrete."
one girl in a million (3 minute video)
* What's up with...
the closed-lip liplock followed by roasting chicken?

Missing Helena (eta: 512 pics)
Can't believe that Rachel Shelley has 'vanished'... its so annoying to have Helena written out in such a fashion. Here's hoping RS found some great gig during her 'sabbatical'.eta:
mitchelplus reports from Lcon that RS is back for S6!
To celebrate, here's that Helena 'Spy' fan video:
Fun Helena 'Spy' Fan Video
eta: Helena returns! Seeing that 'Our Chumps' photo, I knew as a Helena fan that it was in desperate need of a little photoshopping...

Top Chef, the warming oven
* Season 4 starts in mid March!
... So this is a warm-up; my first Top Chef post of S4.
original photo credit: Bravo
credit for still using the 'evil' photo: mediabistro.com
Why doesn't Bravo use this 'sinister' Top Chef promo anymore?
This one above makes me laugh, while the current generation of promotional photos are just 'meh'. The whole reason 'Top Chef' beat(s) its food show rivals is because there's a snarky fun element to the show. Don't lose the fun, Bravo.
FYI: new mobile phone links to the 'Top Chef' website
eta: Just saw the premiere.
How long will both the SF partners hang in there?
I don't need to recap... DS does it here:
Top Chef 4.04

I have solved the mystery of Tina's panties!!! They are Mood Panties (like the ring:) They were originally black. Once Bette got Tina all hot and bothered the color changed to red. -Kuff
