The popular Showtime series, “The L Word,”  which was written as a melodrama that  follows the lives and loves of several lesbian, bisexual and transgender people in Los Angeles, is coming out of retirement and returning as a reality show, according to Variety.com.

“L Word” creator Ilene Chaiken and reality producers Magical Elves (”Top Chef”) will shoot nine episodes of the “The Real L Word,” chronicling the lives of six lesbians in L.A.

While many Tweeters were excited for the reprise of the show, some were hesitant and feared the show might have already run its course:

1. 
   Mayati @MarleeMatlin Chaiken KILLED the L word in season 6. Why bother watch her embarrasse lesbians in another show?
2. 
   kdhales Real Life L Word all over the gay waves – we def need more consistent representation – as for Ilene – woman IS persistent!

   Turnbull85 @carpesomediem I’m so disturbed. The L Word died bloody & beaten. Ilene needs to know when to stop.

   cjakec87 I really hope The L Word going reality isn’t going to start a trend of scripted shows becoming reality. I can’t stand reality TV.
