Erin Daniels really needs to be in AT LEAST one episode in the final season...its the right thing to do since Dana is one of the most loved characters of the entire series and it broke mine and many other people's hearts when she was killed off.
I don't think it would be right if the series ended without an appearance from Dana. I don't even care if it's as some corny ghost or whatever, I just think Erin should be able to come back for one last episode before the series ends.
Dana really needs to come back since the show will no longer be picked up after the 2009 episodes. Bring them all back once more for old time sake. Even if it is as a ghost.
I've mentioned this before, but I still think it could work.
Devote an episode where everyone is together at TIBETTE's place and they recall how they all met and became friends.
This would create a great opportunity to bring Erin Daniels back for an episode. I don't know how else they could do it.
Oliviathree-- If you recall, the Framily talked about how some of them had met Dana, during their trek to the waterfall with her ashes, so I doubt that IC would do another version of it (though your idea is appealing!)Another way to bring her back--if Erin's available-- would be to have Alice run into Dana's "doppelganger", someone who looks exactly like her, but has a totally different personality. That way, Alice would have to deal with and evaluate the immediate attraction she feels toward this new person (who in reality is NOT Dana ) and sort out her feelings toward Tasha.
I'm game for anyhting that would get Dana back ito the show.
I don't remember the episode you descibe very well and I don't know if they reflected with flashbacks or anything...anyway, that's what I had in mind. Thanks for the reply.
how I miss thee. You would have made the long drawn out bike ride to no where tolerable. I take comfort in the fact that you're watching down from heaven wishing the story would progress as much as I do. And I thank you for that. ; )
Erin/Dana was definately a part of what made the initial seasons so great. It's still good, but it hasn't been the same. It would be perfect if the writers could find some way to bring her back, in some form, in the final season.
Omg. Dana, Dana, Dana. Why did you have to go?
God, I miss Dana! I can't describe how mutch I creid when she died. OMG! I cried for DAYS! She was my favourite at that time! And then they took her off??? I'm still not over that!! Dana was the funniest, she was the one that almost made it all worth seeing! Everytime i watched the episode when whe died, i cried my eyes off! I mean, I really cried!!
And all the "goodbye Dana, tribute to dana" videos on you tube - oh my god, i couldn't watch those movies for a while! (As you can see, I'm really emotional when it comes to tv-shows and movies)
I want to see Dana in season 5! One scene is more than enough!
She was an original ensemble member. It's like pulling the plug on Ross or Monica. I have a feeling she wanted out (come on, we loved her but she was so painfully straight), or the executive team behind the L word wanted her gone.
still miss her !!!
i think this was the biggest mistake in this show...
however I would love some group moments when the remember her.. for me its not quite real how its shown..she died nd bassicly thats it...never shown again..never even mentioned..apart from when came to Alice...
What was Dana in 4.12 Long Time Coming? Was she a ghost, Alice's imagination, or is Alice going crazy? We haven't seen her since then and Alice is like it ever happened. So Erin came back but what was she?
Dana came back as a ghost. Because Alice felt that she was loosing her lover (Tasha) So Dana came back as a ghost to remind her to get her ass out there and life is short lmaoo and she was like geez you're cussing more than ever. lmao aw i missed her too. I think so too that killing Dana off was a mistake.
When the scene opens, Alice is laying on the couch with her right hand up behind her head. She could be sleeping and dreaming this, or she could be laying there just contemplating her feelings about Tasha and the going away party. In any case she was wishing she had Dana to talk to. Did you notice that as the scene closes, Dana assumes the exact same position that Alice had at the opening of the scene. This is an indication that Dana was actually part of Alice.
Remember the words from the song that played in episode 311, when they spread Dana's ashes…
Anytime, anytime that you want me, I’ll always be there.
And in the darkest hour, I will always be nearby through Love’s power.
Someday when I’m long gone, I’ll still always be there.
Somehow, somehow, maybe in a song, or maybe in the wind, or maybe in the rain, or maybe in the sunshine.
I’ll always be there.
I always saw it as it was Alice's Figment also. "Dana" had Alice's quick wit attitude..smerky, bitchy...it was Alice's voice coming through...it's the way I saw it.
rovermom :)
Life is a 3D puzzle and everyone has a piece!
She's gorgeous!!
She's blonde in our pic :p the one that I chose as default,and she's more stunning face to face!
Btw,right before she did an autograph on the pic, she told me that she thought she looked fat in the dress that she was wearing,lol!! I LOVE ERIN... <3
just came here to say that the ladies are mediablvd are keepin it up. I've just about lost hope here but there's still a couple of threads of ED/DF out there that I'm still active in.
Talking to myself is fine :) but here? it sucks man. hahaha
I also cry a lot everytime I watch those episodes..
I'm not masochistic,hehe, but I can't help it.. It would be more painful just forget about her and her story, and I can't and I won't do that..
So at this point, I prefer to cry..
I also appreciate and applaude the writers for the storyline, and I admire Erin and the cast(especially Kate and Leisha) for the amazing and wonderful job they did, BUT, why kill Dana?! :(
They could tell the story of a woman who finds out to be sick, and fights against the illness and at the end survives!!
They chose to have not a happy ending.. and we lost our Dana and Erin for ever.. :((
I appreciate that storyline too. Leisha, Kate and especially ERIN did amazing job! But.. Why they killed her? =( Now we can't never see Dana again.. =(
But I loved Dana's breast cancer storyline. Don't get me wrong: I was heartbroken to lose both Dana and Erin from the show, but I think it enhanced the storyline. I, for one, was shocked when Dana died. I hadn't been online for a few weeks and had no clue that was coming. I just assumed Dana would be sick for a while, but that she'd eventually recover and become a spokesperson for breast cancer awareness. When I watched the last few minutes of Losing the Light, I was in awe. Dana's death was a true surprise to me and I was very moved by how it was portrayed. I miss Dana...SO, so much. But I think her arc in season 3 was the best storyline of the series and I appreciate that the writers took such a risk.
I was really shocked too when Dana died. My wifey has warned me, that she saw that Dana was in the hospital on a swedish tv-channel, and she might die.. But I didn't believe it.
And then.. I still remember that evening very well when it happened.. It had been a great day, and I was glad that I could relax and watch the L-word, and saw Alice in the hospital with Dana. And then, suddenly.. *DANG*
She was gone. I remember that I just said "Oh no..", and then I started to cry. And god, I cried. Dana's death touched me very deeply. I really miss her character and Erin.. =(
I was thinking that you guys(at least american ones) watched the first episode of new season last night.., and I don't wanna know anything about it :p and even if I didn't watch it and I still have to wait, I feel a "weird sadness" because I already know that a new season won't bring back Dana.. I don't want her as a ghost,etc, I'd like to have our Dana back, our AMAZING ERIN, and even if I'm excited for the fifth season and for the other characters, there's just this feeling that reminds me that HER CHARACTER is dead.. :(
Sorry,it's just that I miss her a lot! It's not the same without Erin..
It won't be the same ever again..
I've been so pissed off about that for couple days.. I WANT ERIN BACK!!! I've watched some season4 episodes, and it's not same without Erin.. =( Never.
Because Dana had to die.....
The artistic production(or "just" Ilene) decided to talk about the breast cancer and they chose her character had to die..
Wrong choice.. Just my personal opinion.. Sorry..
oh yeah. You're not alone in that thought. :) Some of her fans are glad about the ep 11 thing but for me it's just. Dude, it's whack hahaha like really, after a season has passed w/o barely a mention of her? It's way overdue. I guess it's good and I should at least be thankful that she's acknowledged, you know like as a fan but
shrug
I don't know. like what for? to remind us that she really is gone? i mean yeah, okay, it's good hehehe I'm rambling.
Sorry if I'm clueless but can someone tell me the lowdown on why Erin left the l word? They were really fun to watch, Dana & Alice.

Dana season 5
Do we see Dana in season 5? Will Alice have Dana reappear?
Hopefully we will see Dana in the Team Dana bike race episode. More flashbacks at least.
Why Dana was axed!
She was an original ensemble member. It's like pulling the plug on Ross or Monica. I have a feeling she wanted out (come on, we loved her but she was so painfully straight), or the executive team behind the L word wanted her gone.

Please tell me what Dana was in 4.12

In my opinion, Dana was in Alice’s thoughts.
When the scene opens, Alice is laying on the couch with her right hand up behind her head. She could be sleeping and dreaming this, or she could be laying there just contemplating her feelings about Tasha and the going away party. In any case she was wishing she had Dana to talk to.
