Pittsburgh Post-GazetteRob OwenJan 17, 2012
Season 1 Review: With a witty script by series creator Michelle Lovretta, Lost Girl mixes mystery-of-the-week plots and character stories with an overarching mythology in a way that's palatable for fans of serialized and procedural dramas. Read full review

Zap2it (Inside the Box)Jean BentleyJan 17, 2012
Season 1 Review: It's not exactly groundbreaking TV, but it's fun, sexy and filled with "Degrassi" alums--easy to watch and incredibly addictive. Read full review

People WeeklyTom GliattoFeb 2, 2012
Season 1 Review: Girl has a surprisingly casual sense of humor and Anna Silk is physically just right in the lead role. [13 Feb 2012, p.45]

Season 1 Review: The mythology is intriguing and so are the characters, who are as full of witty one-liners as their closets are bursting with black leather. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Structural laziness detracts from what's good about Lost Girl, its witty dialogue and evolving relationships among Bo and her new friends. Read full review

Uncle BarkyEd BarkJan 3, 2012
Season 1 Review: Lines like ""Did you feel that? It was like the Fourth of July in my mouth." help to make Lost Girl see-worthy without taking it to the level of must-see. Read full review

The A.V. ClubKevin McFarlandJan 13, 2014
Season 4 Review: Occasionally it mixes in the right amount of comedy to mask its flaws, but without Silk for the vast majority of the first few episodes, Lost Girl isn’t up to the task. Read full review

TV Guide MagazineMatt RoushJan 17, 2012
Season 1 Review: The action and whimsy help compensate for an overall flatness in the rest of the ensemble casting and low-budget production. Read full review

The New York TimesMike HaleJan 13, 2012
Season 1 Review: It offers the minor pleasures of formulaic fantasy and weekly puzzle solving, though in a cheaper-looking and less original package than usual. Read full review
