It's been five years, but I still completely agree with your thoughts on the WLT House series, and I just need to vent about how poorly the concept was executed. From the beginning, it seemed like an amazing idea, and I still believe it had a ton of potential. Sloan Harper and Kendra absolutely killed it in the first episode - their scene is still one of the most raw, natural, and intense lesbian scenes ever produced. But after that, it just went downhill.
The decision to have Abella briefly join them, only to not involve her in anything, and not including Carter in anything at all was such a letdown. I really thought they'd improve by the second season, but aside from the standout scene between LaSirena and Lacy, and a decent session between Lacy and Gabbie, it just didn't deliver.
My frustrations with the first and second season:
1- Not pairing up Sloan with any other girl other than Kendra. Sloan seemed horny and ready to go and seemed like she was into every girl. I would have especially loved to see her with Autumn and Gina (who I thought shared some cold vibes with Sloan so it would have made for an interesting scene).Even better would've been Sloan seducing Carter, maybe like in the shower or in bed, which could've been incredibly intense.
2. Not having any proper, lengthy scenes aside from the first episode.
3. Not letting Sloan and Kendra have another session together. After witnessing the magic they made in the first episode, who in their right minds would not want to pair them up again.
4. Having Gina Valentina there. She seemed irritated most of the time.
5. So many missed pairing opportunities. Kendra and Gina, for example, would've been a great dynamic, especially since they had both dated the same guy. That could've been really interesting to see. This was a problem throughout both seasons.
6. Very few scenes and too much make up, frills and shaningans for a reality tv type concept. The slow sensual scenes like with LaSirena and Lacy and Lacy and Gabbie are not to be found in other episodes. Lacy's presence was very much like Sloan's from the first season.
6. Tony Ribas. I honestly have no idea why he kept popping in randomly. What was the point of him being there? It made no sense.
All in all, the concept had so much potential, but the execution was just terrible. It's frustrating to think we'll probably never get to see anything like it again. And even more unfortunate is that the old WLT as a whole has been killed off completely.
Sorry for the rant, but I needed to get this off my chest, even if it's five years too late!
