In the next-to-last episode of Showtime's "The L Word," Marlee Matlin reprised her role as Jodi Lerner to put the other L Word women to shame with her "Dancing with the Stars" moves.It was all very "meta." But the March 1 episode of "The L Word" featured a dance marathon to raise money for a LGBT youth center. The gang put on their dancing shoes but Matlin's character showed up and "unexpectedly" wowed everyone with her excellent dancing skills, received three perfect scores and took home the best dance trophy.
Leisha Haley's Alice character grumbled, "Where'd she learn to dance like that?" Of course, it was all an homage to Matlin's turn on Dancing with the Stars in 2008.
