Any One But Me: Teen Lesbian Web Series

By , About.com Guide   December 15, 2009

Follow me on:

A friend of mine turned me on to this new web series called Any One But Me. Just in time for the second season to begin, I sat and watched the whole first season in one sitting.

Anyone But Me follows Vivian, a teen lesbian who must move from New York City to a rural community and leave her girlfriend behind. It's sexy and current and is mostly devoid of angst-filled coming out scenarios.

I think we'll be seeing more and more shows like this end up on the web, especially ones with gay and lesbian characters as the mainstream media is still shy about showing two girls kissing. I spoke with Anyone But Me Writers Susan Miller (who wrote for The L Word) and Tina Cesa Ward about why they chose the internet to tell their stories, how it differs from The L Word and how creating for the web is so much different than TV.

I watched the first season and the start of the second season, and I love this show. There’s only one problem- the episodes don’t come out fast enough!

I really did like this web series. Unlike most short stories, it showed a lot of issues that we ,as lesbians, deal with on a regular. I’m still waiting for season three.
