Pilot episode

Bette Porter (played by Beals) and Tina Kennard (Holloman) have been a couple for seven years and want to have a child. Their next-door neighbor, Tim (Mabius), is about to form a couple when his girlfriend, Jenny (Kirshner), moves in. Jenny mixes with Bette and Tina's circle of lesbian friends and feels unprepared for what this group in West Hollywood will teach her about lust, love, and life.

Also introduced are

  • Marina (played by Lombard), the owner of the trendy neighborhood cafe which serves as a focal point for the show,
  • Shane (Moennig), a hairstylist and serial heart-breaker,
  • Dana (Daniels), a professional tennis player who's still in the closet,
  • Alice (Hailey), a bisexual journalist, and
  • Kit (Grier), Bette's half-sister, a musician and recovering alcoholic.

Trivia

The original code-name for the project was Earthlings, a slang word for lesbians, as in "Is she an earthling; has she been to the planet?" The Planet is the name of the hangout owned by Marina.

The show is filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Guest stars on the show include Anne Archer, Rosanna Arquette, Lolita Davidovich, Snoop Dogg, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Kelly Lynch, and Helen Shaver.
