  • February 14, 2007: A Little "L" on Valentine's Day | TV Show Recaps | 2/14/2007
    I've noticed quite a few questions in the comments lately regarding Max's history, so I thought I'd devote a post that recaps the Moira/Max story. Now, this is purely from my memory of last season, which was a year ago, so if you remember more details or see anything I've posted in error, feel free to chime in!* * * *Meet Moira, Season 3After Jenny is found self-mutilating in season 2, she admits herself into a psychiatric ward back home in Illinois.

    Before Alan Cumming bids adieu to Showtime's The L Word (Sundays at 10pm/ET) — he has three more episodes to air — you can bet that he will have made his mark on the envelope-pushing sapphic series. In a Q&A with TVGuide.com, the actor teased what's ahead, gave us a whiff of his bawdy little skin-care line, and shared his glee over his forthcoming Broadway venture. TVGuide.com: The first time I remember seeing you was in 1995's Circle of Friends. Was I late to the Alan Cumming party?Alan Cumming: [Laughs] Well, I had existed before then, but... that was the first film I had done that did well in America.
