Who Killed Jenny Schecter?

The L-Word comes to an end, lesbians cry.

Don't cry for me!
Don't cry for me!

Our most (un)favorite poetess, Jenny Schecter, is dead and now, at the end of the final season of the L-Word, we get see whodunit. My money's on suicide, but with the caveat that someone else gets blamed for the crime (ahem, Alice).

Obviously we'll have lots to say after tonight's show is over. And yes, the cast and crew of the Gay Place will experience this seminal lesbian moment together (despite the fact that most of us have never watched the show).

But until then, R.I.P. Jenny Schecter!
