JENNIFER BEALS AND ILENE CHAIKEN WANT YOU… TO WORK WITH US… TO CARRY ON TELLING THE STORIES OF OUR LIVES

Dude, Where’s My Butch?

I like having sex with butch women. I like thinking about it, I like doing it, and I like watching myself do it in the heart-shaped mirror mounted on the ceiling above my bed (kidding). What I do not like is that there is not ONE famous butch woman on whom I can have a crush. Not one. If I were a little bit cooler, I’d break into in a giant warehouse and furiously dance my troubles away; Kevin Bacon did it in Footloose and it seemed to calm him down. But I’ve made peace with the fact that I’m not cool, so maybe I’ll just have to learn to live with my anger.

This week Ilene makes Triple Berry Muffins in a nod, or perhaps better, a wink, to The L Word's first all-lesbian threesome.

Jenny and Tina got busy with "Lez Girls" (and its cast and crew). Shane attempted to swear off sex, but not long enough to stay out of trouble.

And That Is A Wrap!

Filming of Season 5 of The L Word is officially complete! We wrapped out the season this year with eight days of shooting in Los Angeles. After some scorching 90 degree days at the beginning, our final shot went off at a chilly 4 AM last Thursday, up in the Hollywood Hills.

As most of you know, we shoot almost the entire season in Vancouver from about June to October. Vancouver doubles pretty well for LA when we need it to, but for those classic exterior shots we have to get the real deal. Over the past five seasons, our LA shoots have given us some of the most memorable L Word moments...Tina and Helena at the Chateau Marmont pool, Alice and Dana laying down the "Rules of Unattraction" in Runyon Canyon, Shane crashing Cherie's jag on the freeway, Bette and Tina ordering the SAME salad at Toast (that actually wasn't scripted!).

A lot of you have been asking how this year's LA shoot went so OurChart dropped by set to catch some of the action. Check out the video below to see our amazing crew at work and hear from the cast on what it's like to be shooting on their home turf. (And yes, that's me in the director's chair...)
