But ratings, money and fame are the first threesome past the velvet ropes in television - all that social-studies goodness can wait in line.Īdd to this mix Showtime's ability to air nudity, sex, swearing and dirty whispers, and the interest gets piqued. You can add all the "we want to show the community in a positive light" and "we want to show how real lesbians live their lives" you want. That's been a winner pretty much throughout history. Naked (or nearly naked) women making out and having sex. It's not rocket science, obviously, but you don't need to be inherently cynical to understand why it did it. Showtime took its creatively erratic drama "The L Word" - a fictional series about lesbians that had good seasons and others that erased all the initial buzz - and made it into a reality series. That's because what the pay cable channel - no stranger to going all out for attention - dreamed up here is nearly as interesting in its social ramifications as whether the series will be a hit.
