    I am very disappointed totally not what I expected after waiting for this show for 10 years. The new characters are just so cringe and even the OG cast is acting different . Bette is back with the cheating storyline again so boring and bad representation of lesbians. It shows that lesbians can’t be in a long and happy relationship and that’s a bad message that they are sending to homophobes.

    The L Word has always been a little bit naff, but in this new iteration, that naffness feels like a matter of pride. ... There is a great relief in sitting back and watching something that is unabashedly entertaining, that plays to the crowd exactly as it knows how to. It is all a lot of fun, from the boo-hiss villains to the spot-the-reference nods to the past.

    Identity politics are the newest member of the cast, and a most unwelcome one.

    Generation Q is still finding its groove, but with its understated respect for a multitude of queer aesthetic presentations, the reboot is a welcome addition to a still-slim LGBTQ canon.
