Marja Lewis-Ryan

“Regardless of how society has changed in the last 17 years,” Kate Moenning, who plays Shane, tells GO, “what hasn’t changed is the primal desire to be seen and to love and be loved.” 

“I so look forward to developing my own projects as well as shepherding new, progressive creatives into the Showtime flock as we work together to diversify the kinds of stories that get told.” 

I felt like I had been reunited with my camp friends.

Bette, Alice, Shane: They’re household names and lesbian icons. Very soon, Sophie, Dani, Finley, and Micah will be your new queer besties when the much anticipated reboot of “The L Word” expands the L to welcome the Q.

GO’s official “The L Word” stan, Dayna Troisi, speaks with “The L Word: Generation Q” cast members and the showrunner about their journeys from fandom to stardom and the enduring cultural impact of the most important lesbian television show in history.

So who is Marja-Lewis Ryan? Glad you asked.
