Showtime's drama about a circle of lesbian friends and lovers is going to kill off one of its major characters on the premiere of its sixth -- and final -- season.
The victim is Jenny Schecter, Showtime has disclosed. Jenny, a would-be writer and accomplished two-timer, has long been embraced by fans as the character they most love to hate.
The episode, which airs January 18, begins with a splash as Jenny's body is discovered in a swimming pool. Accident, or murder -- and whodunit? Viewers will have to wait for those answers.
Meanwhile, she won't be absent from the show: The remainder of the season is heavy with flashbacks of Jenny (played by Mia Kirshner) in the swim with her enemies and pals.
