SPREAD THE 'WORD'

Exclusive First Look at Sizzling New Lesbian Reality Series "THE REAL L WORD"

First Clip Featuring Embeddable Player

LOS ANGELES, CA - (April 27 , 2010) - Following last's night airing of brand new episodes of the hit series NURSE JACKIE and UNITED STATES OF TARA, SHOWTIME premiered an exclusive "First Look" at the lovely ladies of THE REAL L WORD. The sneak peek gave viewers the first glimpse of Whitney, Rose, Nikki, Jill, Mikey, and Tracy, the six successful, attractive Los Angeles lesbians whose lives will unfold in a way only premium television can offer - uncut and uncensored. For the first time, SHOWTIME is offering the media an embeddable player to embed the video into their sites (see details below).

In the clip, each cast member teases her own individual story - the good, bad and sometimes ugly - that will be revealed in the nine-episode season, which will premiere on SHOWTIME on Sunday, June 20th at 10pm PT/ET. The series is sure to challenge stereotypes and prove, unequivocally, that lesbians can be every bit as glamorous, fashionable, fabulous and even as cutthroat as those hetero housewives.

THE REAL L WORD is the first gay-themed reality series on premium television and is produced by Magical Elves ("Top Chef," "Kell On Earth") and Ilene Chaiken, the executive producer behind the groundbreaking, long-running SHOWTIME series THE L WORD(R).
