I had seen a few episodes of season one back when they aired in 2004, and liked the show but did not have the chance to get into it. I rented the first season, and I am already well into the second. The characters are so rich and well-written, and most importantly, they all have verifiable jobs which they go to every single day (unlike, say, "Hidden Palms"). The cast is terrific, and the real standouts are supporting players Leisha Hailey and Erin Daniels, as bisexual journalist Alice and shy tennis pro Dana, respectively. The show goes so deeply into the lesbian culture while still providing an extremely accessible environment for viewers. The main title theme music is great, and the "lesbian incident" clips that are shown beforehand in each episode are a lot of fun. Highly recommended viewing, but beware of graphic sexuality, lots of nudity, and pretty unlimited language.
