The American Showtime TV station launched a lesbian TV series "The L Word" on January 18, 2004. This series, jointly produced by Showtime and MGM, describes the life of A group of lesbians in Los Angeles. Showtime produced and broadcast the first "Queer as Folk" themed on gay life in 2000, which was very popular in the British and American gay circles.

The cast of "The L Word" includes Jennifer Beals (Flashdance), Laurel Holloman (Two Sisters), Mia Kirshner (The Black Sisters), Karina Lombard (The Matrix) and Eric Mabius (Crow Demon Warrior). Tammy Lyn Michael, who just married rocker Marissa Etheridge last September, will also guest star in the show.

As the first lesbian series in film history, "The L Word" begins with Jenny (Mia Kirshner), a college graduate, moving to Los Angeles. Jenny (played by Mia Kirshner), who is determined to engage in novel writing, and her boyfriend Tim (Eric Mabius (played by Mabius) came to Los Angeles to prepare for "adult life". They became neighbors with a pair of lesbians Bette (played by Jennifer Beals) and Tina (played by Laurel Holloman). When Jenny was invited to Bette and Tina's house party, she was struck by a charming woman (Karina Lombard), and her life changed forever.

As the first lesbian series in film history, "The L Word" is not only "the first to create a trend" but also carries the full expectations of lesbian audiences, said executive producer Ilene Chaiken , the only complaint that people who have watched the pornographic film have so far is that the actors are too beautiful. Chaiken said that if the character in the play is different from the lesbian in his impression, it is by no means a deliberate arrangement, she is just showing the side she knows. "I don't feel any social or political responsibility. My responsibility is just to tell a good story."
