Via The Hollywood Reporter, Marja-Lewis Ryan has been selected as showrunner. In addition:
"The L Word creator Ilene Chaiken will also exec produce alongside Ryan and original series stars Jennifer Beals (Bette), Katherine Moennig (Shane) and Leisha Hailey (Alice)."I know Ryan's work primarily from the movie The Four-Faced Liar, which she wrote and starred in.
I enjoyed Liar, so I'm looking forward to seeing the direction the L Word reboot goes. In the above article, Ryan acknowledges the diverse queer community, so I hope that portends a more diverse cast than the original show and a better handling of trans issues.
Question: Does anyone know where, in addition to Autostraddle, queer women congregate online to talk about pop culture now that AfterEllen is .... what it now is? When the original L Word aired, AfterEllen served as a hub of sorts for queer women to read recaps, interviews, and articles about the show, as well as talk about it in forums.
