TCA: The 'L-Word' spinoff

The end of "The L Word" might not be the end of "The L Word." At least, for one character.

Showtime President of Entertainment Robert Gleenblatt told TV critics Friday that creator and executive producer Ilene Chaiken is working on a spinoff of the series that will be focused on one character whose storyline will remain open-ended when the series comes to an end next year.

The story will be continued online, and then in a spinoff, if Showtime decides to move ahead with it, Greenblatt said. 

But the project is in the initial stages, he emphasized, adding that even the actress who would star in it doesn't know.

"I don’t want to be too coy but I can’t say," Greenblatt said.  "We’re still forming it," he said.

Hmmm, maybe we should start an e-mail campaign: Should the spinoff go to Bette? Tina? Shane? Someone else?
