The L Word is coming back, and the reaction by some fans online is quite beautiful.

The groundbreaking show, which followed the lives and loves of a group of Los Angeles lesbians, ran for six seasons from 2004 and 2009.

In its wake, it left a dedicated fanbase and a multitude of broken taboos.

This week it was announced that the show would return for another season on Showtime.

Naturally, fans are reeling with excitement and many have expressed lovely feelings about the show coming back.
