Bam! Season 2 has begun. This episode is called “The Quickening”, maybe for how quickly time has flown by since the end of last season. Kidding! It felt like forever and I wanted to die.

Our favorites from this year’s inconsistent but often lovely cornucopia of women who like other women and aren’t afraid to show it (on television).

This week on Pretty Little Liars, Emily finally released some of her pent-up rage and Spencer makes the grossest pickle smoothie I’ve ever seen. I wish that was a euphemism.

We’re talking Betty and Kate, baby cannolis, Valentine’s Day soldier sex romps and dead bodies.

It’s the mid-season finale of Pretty Little Liars! Emily kicks some ass, the betrAyer is revealed and I say “I told you so.” Well sort of.

This week on The Real L Word, Romi and Dusty reunited, Whitney and Sara visited Connecticut, Amanda went to a dinner party in New York with Kiyomi and Somer couldn’t make it! Hijinks ensue!

The Liars finally start confronting people and asking the hard questions. More importantly, Maya’s cousin shows up and wants to get all up in Emily’s pants. We’re upset about this.

This week on “The Real L Word,” everybody got married to dolphins!

Emily does a lot of kissing in this episode. Some of it is good. Some of it is awkward.

Curated video from 80’s and 90’s afterschool specials in which being gay was a lot like being a tornado or a flesh-eating virus.

“Skins” will end next year forever, says Channel 4, because everything I touch turns to shit.

Everyone on Pretty Little Liars has issues with their dads. Too bad no one channeled that anger in to a halfway decent outfit.

We won’t find out who A is, but everything about Lucas will be tied up in a neat little bow.

Toby fell off a wall and Emily wore a military style vest. All in all a pretty good episode.

“Can you just make her seem like a person?”

While in The UK, I consumed three years of the Sophie and ultimately Sian storyline in three days and to be honest I sort of miss them now.

Alternative lifestyle haircuts and candy striper uniforms. Need I say more?

Oh Santana! Oh! Don’t you cry for me, I’ve come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee!

There are so many girls on the television this season! Autostraddle has your guide to the best new fall shows and where to find the queers.

Let’s break it down by uncomfortably accurate fashion stereotype. High school students listen up — this is relevant to your interests.
