I’m finally catching up.

• I hate Jennifer Schecter. I’ve hated her since the beginning of the series, and now that she’s a neurotic psycho hose beast, I hate her even more
• It’s still weird for me to see such blatant nudity and sex on TV. I’m not used to pay channels, man. I sure like watching Shane go at it though.
• I can’t believe they had Bette sign the old word for transgender. What’s the point?
• I kind of like Marlee Matlin using her voice. See, for her, I don’t consider it offensive. It’s just Marlee, it’s who she is, and she’s not afraid to communicate how she wants to. I’m sure if she didn’t want to speak for herself, she would tell the producers that. I don’t think she’s hurting the Deaf community or anything - she’s making her own decision for herself, and if she wants to talk, who has the right to say she shouldn’t? Besides, she has a very definite accent, and Bette is always signing in response, so it’s not like anybody is going to forget she’s Deaf.
• Pam Grier walking down the jail hallway was just so rad. Takes a girl back.
• I’ve always hated Jenny, but Helena doesn’t bother me nearly as much as she used to when she first joined the show. Her new girlfriend, the gambling addict, though…ew.
• I always wonder how the actors feel about making out with each other. As far as I know, Leisha Hailey is the only gay star, but nobody else seems to mind constantly rubbing all over each other either.

I could go on, but those are my recent thoughts anyway.

So we’re house-sitting at my in-laws’ for a couple of months while they’re on vacation, and they get all the Showtime channels. Last night and tonight I have been watching The L Word, and I just have to gush about Marlee Matlin. She is hotter than all things hot…she doesn’t make my jaw drop physically (although she is beautiful) but she is just hot. And she’s playing a lesbian who smokes pot and has tattoos and…mmmmm she’s so yummy. Her “interpreter” kind of makes me squirmy by interjecting his own opinions while he’s on the job, but I don’t care. Marlee is just so fucking yummy on that show. I would love to meet her someday so I can hump her leg tell her how awesome I think she is.
