Great start! Now, it is a problem for the alphabetisation that we won't know the last name of some of the characters. Or would it be possible to find out somehow? I would be willing to bet most characters mentioned in the series have a last name, but how to get that information? The way I see it our other option would be to alphabetise by first name only... -- SLB 04:56, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
I Think this is really confusing can't they all just be listed by first name?? —Preceding

Yeah, this is awful. The bullet points especially. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.80.114.80 ( talk) 17:05, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
We find in the last episode of season 4 that Papi's real name is Eva Torres; this appears at first glance to be a reference to the girl Carmen had sex with on her prom night, but that's currently listed as Lucia Flores. I'm researching Season 3 DVD for clarification; many of us may have heard it wrong on second reading, but quite a few L word fan blogs are drawing conclusions on their own that Papi was the one who took Carmen's virginity, which wouldn't actually be that much of a surprise, given Papi's general character.

How can she be listed as homosexual when it turns out she is married to Manfredi Ferrer? -- 84.131.215.73 00:10, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Answer: Because being a homosexual doesn't mean you cannot marry a straight man. Given that Marina is a daughter of a contessa, maybe she was forced into a pre-arranged marriage. She got involved with Francesca, Jenny and Robin anyway and that proves that she is a homosexual. Dan-gee-rous ( talk) 11:54, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
Tucker doesn't seem to meet Notability or Notability of fictional characters. -- SatyrTN ( talk / contribs) 22:11, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
I agree. I'll merge them in the following days. -- Magioladitis ( talk) 18:46, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
There are a lot of new characters for season 5 that aren't there. For example: Niki Stevens Adele Channing etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.73.46.247 ( talk) 10:09, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
The vast majority, if not all, of the characters in this television series are not sufficiently independently notable to justify their own articles. As such, the following articles should be merged into this list: Dana Fairbanks, Tina Kennard, Carmen de la Pica Morales, Jodi Lerner, Shane McCutcheon, Helena Peabody, Bette Porter, Kit Porter, Jenny Schecter, Moira/Max Sweeney, Tasha Williams, Papi (The L Word character), Marina Ferrer, Adele Channing, Dawn Denbo, Gabby Deveaux, Tim Haspel, Phyllis Kroll, Molly Kroll and Dylan Moreland.

Considering that The L Word was the first television series where all of the central characters were either lesbian or bisexual does make the characters very notable, particularly within the LGBT community. With respect to the characters independent presence, there is a reality show that will premiere in June 2010 on Showtime in which audiences are already trying to identify which individuals from the cast of this reality show will be the " Shane McCutcheon," the " Bette Porter" and so on...

So I'm a bit puzzled as to what label we should apply to Jenny. She's clearly oriented towards women, but her relationship with Tim in season one and Gene (Aquarium Guy) in season two prompted me to switch it to bisexual; but then the relationship with Max makes me lean towards perhaps pansexual (attraction without any tie to gender). Right now, I'm content to leave it at "bisexual," but Jenny is challenging the assumptions I'm making about sexual classification. D ralwi k| Have a Chat 04:20, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
in GQ the mystery of Jenny Schecter's death was revealed and I feel this needs to be added QueenAlexandria ( talk) 17:15, 06 June 2020 (UTC)
