Lost Girl – The Wanderer

goth09

Lost Girl’s season finale reveals the details of Isaac’s sinister scheme: he wants humanity to ascend to an new level of terrible acting. For some reason the first few minutes of this episode felt really abrupt and detached. I had the strange feeling I’d missed an episode. But no. It was just weird. Some girls [...]

Lost Girl – Hail, Hale

hhgoth

Lost Girl gives us the big windup before the season finale, as Hale’s inauguration turns into the inciting incident for a full-scale race war. This season of Lost Girl has been desultory. It’s lacked focus and never found the fun Scooby Gang dynamic that made it such a cheap thrill for the first two seasons. [...]

Face Off – Living the Dream

fo01

The Face Off season finale is an acrobatic, aquatic affair that brings out the best in the final three contestants. There’s no nonsense in setting up the challenge – each finalist has to create a pair of creatures for Le Rêve – The Dream, a pretentiously titled Vegas show. It’s basically a slightly damp version [...]

Lost Girl – Delinquents

lostgirl-delinquents-gothic

Linda Hamilton guest stars on Lost Girl while Bo and Kenzi go undercover at a summer camp for juvie malefactors to hunt down Man-Thing. There were two plot lines weaving along this week before the big shippy finale, so let’s tackle them one at a time. First, Tamsin meets up with an old friend, who [...]

Face Off – Alien Apocalypse

foap01

The final cut for the Face Off finale tasks the remaining four contestants with the creation of a hybrid alien based on species from SyFy’s upcoming space opera/western Defiance. Before we jump into tonight’s recap, congrats to Face Off on the announcement of their fifth season, which SyFy announced this week. I’ll discuss the prospects [...]

Lost Girl – Ceremony

ceremonygoth

The Dawning finally dawns on Lost Girl, as Bo trips through some sloppy metaphors and gets back to her human roots while discovering her inner Galadriel. I wanted to hate this episode, and it gave me plenty of reasons to. I mean, it starts out with only a warning for language and violence, with not [...]

Face Off – Mummy Mayhem

Face Off - Season 4

Face Off gives us a very cool Evil Dead themed challenge, all five remaining contestants do killer mummy designs, and then I lose all faith in the judges completely and forever. At the increasingly empty house, we find that Meagan left everyone notes scrawled on mirrors as a parting gift. That’s such a perfect combination [...]

Lost Girl – Fae-ge Against the Machine

lostgirl308gothic

On Lost Girl, we learn of the existence of the fae X-Men while Bo goes off on a MacGuffinQuest and Lauren gets a trophy. My notes for this episode look like a list of random terms and names. The plot was total nonsense, yet it was still fun. It felt at times like Bo was [...]

Face Off – It’s Better in the Dark

fobitd

It’s lights out on Face Off, and two contestants are eliminated. Plus, food poisoning! Last week I made fun of the weekly, “I’m so sad that {person who was eliminated last week} is gone,” that starts off every episode. When Autumn was eliminated, I kind of wondered if it would hold true this week. It [...]

Lost Girl – There’s Bo Place Like Home

lgoth02

On Lost Girl, a road trip gives us a glimpse of the old Kenzi while Bo sets out to grant forgiveness, and realizes she’s really the one who needs forgiving. If that seems a little too Lifetimey, there’s a Polish demon and cleavage galore. Bo is training to endure “The Dawning,” which is some kind [...]
