It’s official, we’re getting a second season!
Season 1 has 2 episodes left. The finale is January 26. No word on when Season 2 will begin filming or will air. Of course, we’ll be watching the news for any word and will share it as soon as we hear.
In the meantime, WELCOME BACK to so many site members whose names haven’t been around in a long time. Hopefully you’re meeting all the wonderful people who have continued the community we started 16 years ago. For me, it’s a dream to have the old guard back with the “newer” site members who also have been around for years.
Hmmm… maybe we’re becoming LesFan Generation Q ?!
10 episodes announced by JB on insta!! So happy!!

“#thelword has been picked up for a second season, you say? Ten episodes? Oh, my!” Might be time to make my way off the mountain and get back to work. ☺️
They will have to keep Tibette alive if they plan to get a season 3. I hope LH makes some more appearances. to sustain the show. I wish she would go back to blonde but it does not really matter what color it is as long as she is on the show!
100% AGREE!
At least Mama T can always come back. They killed Kit, Jenny and Dana…and Melvin….and where has Sounder been?
I wish they would bring Helena Peabody back. Rachel Shelley is still acting Alex Hedison quit acting to be a full time photographer but maybe they’ll sneak Helena and Dylan back in as well. Who knows?
I’d love to see Helena! And I’d like to know what happened to Tasha.
NO more characters! I hated that about the original series – too many characters! @Katey471 are you telling me there is hope they’ll kill off Sophie? :-D
it’s a possibility! No one is safe! Let’s just say since I like Gigi so much, she should secure another gig. lol
I like Sophie, I didn’t at first but calling Dani a fucking fuck won me over. They can poof Dani for all I care. She’s an empty vessel.
Bette needs James back. I love the scenes with her and James and how he followed her when she left the CAC and started at the college and then was with her when she had the gallery with Kelly and just before they were moving to NYC. Can you just hear her saying “Fuck you James, Just Fuck you! and throwing the phone against the wall :-)
I’d like to see Peggy Peabody come back, not sure about Helena. I didn’t really like her and her total character change from one season to the next was ridiculous. However Alice and Tina may need a friend and she was a good friend to both of them, once she stopped being a bitch.
As for the new characters, Don’t really care for any of them and their stories are not compelling so Season 2 can just be a do-over with Bette, Tina, Shane, and Alice and a whole new set of characters. The only ones they need to bring back is Angie and Shane’s wife Quiara. I really love their chemistry and it’s the only story that really needs a continuation.
I didn’t really care for Angie in the first four episodes, and to be honest I don’t think Bette was doing such a great job of parenting but having Tina back made all the difference. Did you notice that Angie didn’t drop any F/Bombs when she was talking to her mother and she was happy!!
In every interaction with Bette she was acting like a spoiled brat, cursing, fighting, cutting school, smoking pot, walking around with a major attitude and a mean face. I didn’t even think she was that pretty until I saw her smiling and laughing with Tina. Tina might be gone, but she’s more present in Angie’s life than Bette and they obviously share more intimacy. I don’t think Angie respects Bette, even if she loves her.
Bette isn’t going to be able to handle Angie with a girlfriend, and her independence now that she has her drivers license. Jordi is a bad influence, and Angie is a follower not a leader. She’s immature and obviously not well-adjusted. She’s been shielded her whole life in privilege and private schools and now she’s going to public school where she’ll be exposed to a whole different world.
Jordi looked pretty well-off and I doubt she’s going to public school to be with Angie. We don’t know anything about her parents except she made a comment about them not having the same morals as Bette (which has to be pretty damn low) considering. Bette already expressed her concerns about Jordi so I’m sure mother and daughter are going to clash about that too.
I can see Angie playing her mother’s against each other and Bette is going to need Tina more than ever to be a stabilizing force in that family, especially if she wins the election which she might, but she’s certainly not qualified to run a city.
We’ll see how season 1 ends. I don’t have high expectations, but they might surprise me.
