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 from the kitsune sorority act ditzy and slutty and reveal that Tamsin is at the end of her valkyrie life cycle. They also mention to Bo that Tamsin is involved […]

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. This episode wasn’t really a return to form, but it had drama and tension and a galloping pace that was a welcome relief from the bromidic walk-throughs of the last […]

On Lost Girl, Bo and Kenzi get a taste of suburban hell and we finally find out what Kenzi smells like. This week’s episode (“Adventures in Fae-By Sitting”) starts out like those fun Lost Girl episodes of old, with Bo and Kenzi bantering in their apartment. Bo’s love life is empty, but she points out that Kenzi doesn’t do much dating either. “I have a rich inner life.” “That reminds me, I need new batteries.” Then a case comes walking in the door, a cute […]

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 turns out to be Linda Hamilton. Linda looks pretty cool and badass in a sort of Steven Tyler kind of way. She uses a Xena-esque serrated blade as a weapon, […]

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 a single mention of sexual situations or nudity. What the hell? It would be fine if they slipped some into the episode anyway. Everyone knows unexpected nudity is the best […]

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 in the middle of a game of Zork. “You are standing in a random field holding a fortune cookie. There is a tall, blonde valkyrie here. She is looking really, […]

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 of ridiculous fae plot device through which she will face harrowing challenges in hopes of avoiding de-evolution into an underfae. I genuinely think at this point that the other fae […]

On Lost Girl, we learn where the real Kenzi is, Bo and Tamsin make out, and a lot of feelings get hurt. The action begins immediately where last week ended, with Bo accusing Kenzi of not being the real Kenzi and everyone else acting like Bo is crazy. They lock Bo up, worried that she’s being affected by the darkness within her and possibly even killing when she feeds. Bo is weak, partly because she hasn’t fed lately, partly because some kind of weird disease […]

Lost Girl, the TV show that gives you the maximum amount of sideboob allowed by law, guaranteed. This week’s episode was called “Faes Wide Shut,” and it should be the final nail in the coffin of the terrible “Fae” puns for episode titles. It doesn’t even make any sense. How do you pronounce that? Fighs? Fay-eyes? Just stop already. Bo and Lauren are hanging out at the bar checking out the local talent. At first I thought they were scoping out hotties for a potential […]

On this week’s Lost Girl, mythologies collide. Hale is an ashhole. Trick overacts. And Bo just can’t get enough. She just can’t get enough. A lot of TV dramas begin with a cold open. Lost Girl subverts the whole idea with a hot open – a lengthy montage of Bo and Lauren having sex. There’s oil and hair-pulling and even a little scissor-sister action if you watch closely. Bo is wearing Lauren out and seems totally insatiable, turning to chocolate as a diversion and even […]
