Has anyone else heard about this new show on Showtime? I was surprised that I haven't heard about it before today. I must be out of the loop. When I first heard about it I was encouraged that there was finally going to be a series that featured lesbians as primary characters. But then I read the review in the NY Times that suggested the pilot uses lesbian sex to entice and titilate hetero male viewers. The review goes on to say that the series improves in later episodes and adds more depth to the characters. I don't have Showtime so I won't be able to watch. I was wondering if anyone is planning on watching and if they wanted to share their thoughts on the show.
