Season 1
Roll out the welcome mat because the ladies of The Real L Word: Los Angeles are moving in to show the world how it's really done - sexy, sophisticated, Sapphic style.
The nine-episode, one-hour reality series comes from the preeminent chronicler of lesbian stories, Ilene Chaiken, who served as creator and executive producer of the long-running Showtime drama series, The L Word, and will executive produce the new series along with reality producers Magical Elves (Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz) who made runaway successes of Project Runway, Top Chef and Last Comic Standing.
The Real L Word: Los Angeles follows a group of real-life, high-profile, left coast lesbians as they go about their daily lives, at work and play.
Chaiken and the Elves plan to show viewers that they can be every bit as glamorous, fashionable, fabulous and even as cutthroat as those hetero housewives.
