L Word teaser/trailer for season 6: somebody direct me to the lighting guy?

The kind people at Showtime have aired a trailer on their website featuring the L-Word damsels. Well, somebody in the lighting department must have been a teensy weensy bit peeved, because that lighting is downright unfriendly. Everyone looks like they could do with a heavy dose of filler, and some free Botox thrown in for free.

Not that I dispute the fact that these women should have wrinkles; au contraire, but let's face it, they have spent five seasons feeding us a glorious image only to kill it in one fell swoop. The general atmosphere of the clip was delectable, but the lighting person should be ambushed.



with some slowmo thrown in for extra effect!

I really thought Laurel Holloman suffered the most. She looked horrible in her close-ups.

@Vikki: as a woman, and an actress, I would have taken issue with it, but hey, they all seem to think it was fine... What can I say?
