L Word Blind Buy?
I was intrigued by the DVDTalk review and am considering picking this up blind, any thoughts?

-Sex and the City was good, didn't love it

If you have Showtime, they're replaying Season One beginning this Sunday. I've never seen it either, and would rather watch it on TV than purchase out of the gate.

yes, The L Word has quite a bit of sex, and most episodes feature at least one encounter. I think Jennifer Beals is the only member of the main cast who's not seen fully topless, and some of the random extras scattered throughout bare pretty much everything. This isn't Cinemax After Dark territory with lots of soft-focus photography, a soft, lightly jazzy saxophone, and slow, determined motions. The sex scenes in The L Word are unflinching and not overly romanticized, frequently frenzied and aggressive. The L Word is more concerned about telling a story than merely titillating viewers, and those whose sole interest in the series is seeing topless women lick each other are warned that these scenes are heated but make up a small portion of the overall runtime.
