say it isn't so!
If my calculations are correct, there are only two more episodes left in the fourth season of "The L Word."
My calculations could be completely off, since I was hardly a math major at university. But I'm pretty sure that, at the end of last week's episode, they said something like, "There are THREE EPISODES LEFT," in a dark ominous voice.
So after tonight's installment (which, since I'm here at work, as usual, I won't be able to see until 2 a.m.), there are only two.
How can that be? It feels like the season just got started. There are so many storylines the writers are going to have to wrap up quickly -- too quickly -- in order to end the season in two weeks. And they just brought back Marina last week. How can they do anything much with Jenny and her in only two episodes? They can't. Not that I care too much, except that that storyline will take away from the characters I actually care about.
There are simply too many major characters to follow -- which is fine, except that, now, there's not enough time left in which to follow them. And I predict the season finale will leave us bitter.
Not because of a well-done cliffhanger that makes us hungry for me, like last year (Crazy Bette kidnapping baby Angelica? Perfect!), but because it'll feel empty. And, worse, rushed.
