Showtime's lesbialphabet ends at 'L'?
According to reports, the planned "L Word" spinoff starring Leisha Hailey is unlikely to go forward. At least not on Showtime:
"Showtime is zeroing in on new series pickups," Variety reports, and "it's understood that the pay cabler has passed on ... The Farm, an L Word spinoff from producer Ilene Chaiken." According to The Hollywood Reporter, earlier this week "the network informed the producers of two pilots — the L-Word spinoff starring Leisha Hailey and the Matthew Perry/Peter Tolan comedy The End of Steve — that they would not continue."
