The 5 Most Crushworthy Characters On 'The L Word: Generation Q,' Episode 4
Are you as in love with this week's guest star as we are?
It's week four of The L Word: Generation Q, and that means its time for our updated crush list!
Every Monday here on Out, we're ranking our five most crushworthy L Word characters based on the new episode that premiered over the weekend. And this week, an all-new character has jumped to the top of the list!
Episode 4 had big moments for some of our classic faves like Alice and Shane, plus lots of great Micah content, but it was Pippa who really stole our hearts. Unfortunately, two of our favs, Maribel and Gigi barely had any scenes in this episode, so they've gone off the list this week, but you can be sure we'll see them again soon! Check out our list and tell us if you agree!
New episodes of The L Word: Generation Q air Sundays on Showtime, but Showtime subscribers can catch new episodes early on Fridays via streaming!
5. Tess
Jamie Clayton continues to bring style and sophistication to the character of Tess. She's still got bonkers great chemistry with Shane, and we're learning more and more about her. Plus, we always love a good daughter!
4. Shane
Okay Shane, we see you! In the latest ep, Shane really shows how much she's grown, offering some sage advice to Angie, treating her employees well, and trying to make Tess feel better. It's super adorable watching a masc lesbian fail so completely at setting up a projecter, and even cuter having a femme tell her how to do it.
And that kiss!!! We can't wait to see what Shane does next!!!
3. Micah
Micah's got it SO BAD for Maribel and it is SO CUTE!!! He's been opening up to her, getting more vulnerable with her, and this week, even told her he's attracted to both men and women. He even got SO CLOSE to asking her out!!! We can't help but root for him! Plus, the way he put his own desires aside when he saw that Angie needed help from a therapist cemented him as one of our all-time crushes.
2. Finley
I never thought I'd love Finley this much!!! Our girl is rising fast on the charts! Just a few of her cute moves in episode 4 include offering the last frozen waffle to Sophie, getting a volunteer gig working as a kid's soccer referee, getting all excited when Sophie asks her out, and buying flowers. And god, she looks great in that blazer!
She really earned her spot at number 2 though, when Sophie stood her up, and then lied about it. As angry as we are at Finley, we don't want to see her so heartbroken!
1. Pippa Pascal
Wow. This week, Vanessa Williams joined The L Word as Bette's favorite artist, Pippa Pascal, who quit the art world after suffering racist abuse, and she knocked us all on our asses. Pippa is an artist and a woman who knows who she is and what she's worth, and she's not afraid to say it.
After Bette shows up at her off-the-grid house and asks to work with her, Pippa completely doms her with just a few words and a look. Bette is putty in her hands -- and so are we! I'd love to take this woman out to dinner.
