| Editorial Reviews:
If the third season was marked by transitions, The L Word's fourth concerns growing up--or trying to, at any rate. Shane (Katherine Moennig) becomes her brother Shay's guardian, Bette (Jennifer Beals) and Tina (Laurel Holloman) stop fighting over their daughter Angelica, and Bette's new boss, Phyllis (a very game Cybill Shepherd), decides it's time to embrace her true nature. So, after 25 years of marriage (Bruce Davison plays her husband), Chancellor Kroll comes out of the closet--and sets her sights on Alice (Leisha Hailey). For all the inclusiveness, Max (Daniela Sea), still remains on the margins. Dumped by Jenny (Mia Kirshner) the year before, Max continues to share her apartment while acclimating to life as a man. For those who felt season three was too dark, four offers a welcome corrective. There's still plenty of angst--Jenny's memoir meets with a few negative notices (Heather Matarazzo's journalist pens the harshest critique) and Helena (Rachel Shelley) learns to live without Mommy's money--but there are plenty of moving moments to compensate (most revolving around Shane and Shay). New additions also arrive to shake things up, like Marlee Matlin as an artist who helps Bette to broaden her horizons, Kristanna Loken as a single mother with a yen for Shane, and Rose Rollins as an Iraq War veteran with whom Alice has a tryst (leading to a well intentioned, if heavy-handed message about how even liberals should support the troops). As in seasons past, the directorial line-up impresses as much as the acting talent, and includes Oscar winner Marleen Gorris (Antonia's Line) and playwright Moisés Kaufman (The Laramie Project). Since creator Ilene Chaiken makes most special features, like deleted scenes, available online, this set offers few extras, other than biographies, a photo gallery, and episodes of The Tudors and Californication. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

But Not The Last Season February 15, 2010 Willy D. Reviewer (San Francisco,CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Buy every season except the last one. It is crap and slaps you in the face for having followed these characters for five years.
addictive February 11, 2010 Haedke, Ute The L-Word is a series about lesbian life in LA. The characters are well developed and realistic. I find it all a bit too glamorous, but I guess that's nicer to look at. Also, their world is a bit too focussed on lesbians, men (even gay) are rare. But for the rest: I had to watch all episodes in a row, which tied me on my couch for 2 days!
Good Television July 1, 2009 Kenneth M. Kallas (Milwaukee USA) The L Word is one of the best shows that I have seen in recent times. It's a shame that it only went six seasons. The DVD series is very enjoyable. The story lines are attention grabbing and the humor is catchy. The love story between Bette and Tina is truly romantic.
Season 4 very funny April 17, 2009 Elizabeth A. Kochis (Illinois) I think this season of the L Word was the funniest. Season 3 was sad and it was time for some uplifting stories and for the characters to relax and have fun.
The L Word Rocks! April 9, 2009 Devon Prevost (Boston, MA) It may just be that I am a geek and feel like the girls on this show are my friends and family (or lovers - hehe), but I loved this season and I enjoy finding out what they are up to. Maybe a little outrageous with Jenny's crazy antics, but Hollywood has to make everything sensational to keep up ratings. Overall, I adored another season with the girls and I cannot wait to get the next season.
