“I just can’t get enough,” the show’s broadcaster posted to Twitter.

“Season 2 of #TheLWord Generation Q is coming to #Showtime.”

The L Word: Generation Q took our original series that was revered and reinvigorated it for a new generation and a new era,”Showtime exec Gary Levine told Deadline.

“The result has been a show that appeals to all generations for its relevance, its fearlessness, its emotion and its fun.”

Airing on Stan here in Australia, Generation picks up after the original series ended in 2009 and brings Alice Pieszecki (Leisha Hailey), Shane McCutcheon (Katherine Moennig) and Bette Porter (Jennifer Beals) into 2019 and beyond.

The ladies of The L Word are joined by new characters Micah (Leo Sheng), Dani (Arienne Mandi), Sophie (Rosanny Zayas) and Gigi (Sepideh Moafi), giving the creators an opportunity to tell intergenerational queer stories.

Catch up on Season 1 of The L Word: Generation Q on Stan now.
