Wendy and I were snuggled on the couch, fire roaring, TV tuned to Showtime awaiting an episode of The L-Word .
Shocking I know. Lesbians enjoying watching a television show about lesbians. How bizarre. But not really. Even if those lesbians are not exactly like us, there is some commonality (and it's not bad hair!).
Wendy asked me whether I think Jennifer Beals makes a convincing lesbian. I paused briefly to reflect and said "Yes, I think she does." Wendy nodded her agreement.
Then came one of the final scenes of the episode. Bette in NYC picks up a stranger in a bar and takes her back to her hotel room to... uh... get to know her better.
It was during the scene in the hotel room I definitively decided yes, Jennifer Beals plays a very convincing lesbian.
Yeeowza.
For what it's worth, I also must admit something else I said. I also said "There is no way in hell I could ever do what she has just done."
But just what did I mean by that?
Wendy knew.
And that's all that matters.

AHHH! We MUST get Showtime NOW! I hate waiting for the DVDs.
hmm, need to catch up...(we watch OnDemand so we are always a day or two behind)
There is something about that Jennifer Beals tho... she just... doesn't do it for me.
altho - you used the word 'Yeeowza', so my curiosity is surely peaked.

I agree with on Jennifer Beals. She is very convincing in the role. The episode on Sunday was a bit weak compared to #3 so I'm looking forward to this Sunday night. Of course...I'll be at my moms house and there is no Showtime. I can only hope the VCR does not fail. I can't wait to see what goes on between Alice and Dana.
Bette and Tina broke up?!?
We only get the DVD's so I will have to wait a year or two to see for myself how convincing she is.
I hate to make this confession, but we've still never seen a single episode.
