LG15: The Last

LG15: The Last is a social show produced by Australian lonelygirl15 fans in 2009, and presented by EQAL on LG15.com. Due to the downturn in the economy, EQAL’s show LG15: The Resistance was put on hiatus, and instead, the producers decided to open a contest for the fans. LG15: The Last was the result of this contest, entitled “LG15: The Show Is Yours,” which allowed fans to submit pilot episodes and trailers of spin-off shows based on the Lonelygirl15 mythology, where the selected pilot would become an official LG15 Franchise show. Allowing a crowdsourced project to take over production responsibilities was seen as “unprecedented.” LG15: The Last did not win the contest at first, but when the original winner backed out, they became the featured show.

LG15: The Last’s pilot was released on January 19, 2009, with the official premiere on March 9, 2009. The show ran for ten weeks, followed by a twelve-video finale called “Quietus,” which spanned one month, ending on July 28, 2009. A few days later, signs began popping up that there was, in fact, more content to come, until ultimately, it was confirmed in several chats both in- and out of character that there is one more episode to come, long enough to span at least two YouTube uploads. Due to other obligations slowing down the editing process, the airing date of this final episode is not yet known, but the story is continued on the character Twitter accounts, on the comment boards and in live chats in the meantime.
