VIDEO: It's Autostraddle's "Real L Word" Season 2 Parody!

Posted bya;ex

on July 18, 2012

Well, we couldn't help ourselves again. We probably have way more fun making these things than you guys do watching them (though I'm secretly hoping that's semi-not the case). Our Real L Word season one parody was kind of a hit, especially with Nikki and Jill Weiss-Goldstein, who we love/is our target market. Just kidding. You guys are our target market. You know, the weirdos that don't ever watch the actual show but you've read and enjoyed each one of Riese's recaps. You!

We are aware that this is very late-coming. I mean, we showed the opening sequence back in February. Better late than never I say. We shot so much shit, so much you guys. Team ChillRoom Productions (Sarah Croce, Lauren Aadland, etc.) really went for it. And maybe we'll edit some more stuff so we could just keep making fun of this show/ourselves/Ilene Chaiken.

Here's the cast for the "Real (Enough) L Word Season 2 Parody" video:
Real L Word Season 2 Parody Cast

Okay, so on with it. Pull up a chair and grab a beer because you have to commit at least 14 minutes to this, which I don't think you'll regret at all because you clicked on this article to begin with let's be honest. Also, we've included some behind-the-scenes photos below too!

So, what I take away from this is that Kelsey drinks alot, and there’s something called a “Romi” that I really should avoid learning how to do.

morgan, when you dumped out the box of chopsticks I died!

Also f’ing hilarious–

“i found this geode, i’m gonna make a bracelet” bahaha.
*points to cat toy* “such a good idea for an earring”
the free sperm scene… terrifying.

and finally– what’s the song playing during the kelsey scene?

genius, ladies. and the likeness of the characters is almost frightening.

I love you guys for putting this stuff together.
I loved whitney’s tatts, brittani’s cameo, nicki and jill’s appearances, the tiny fucking animals everywhere and all the one earring references.
also, ‘it was on national tv, it’s sex.’

I also like how most of the cast couldn’t keep a straight face. Some of them tried to mask it, but it came through slightly and that made me laugh even more. I love parodies and I love people who can make fun of themselves, as well as others equally.
