What a light, yet satisfying treat this show turned out to be. Read full 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

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

Lori Rackl

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

Brian Lowry

It's a respectable addition to their genre menu, if not likely to become many people's fae-vorite. Read full 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

Mike Hale

Jan 13, 2012

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

I don't have cable so I only recently found out about it thanks to Netflix. People like me prefer intelligent, creative, and original shows such as Lost Girl. It involves modern topics and is very open about sexuality which our society needs more exposure to. The characters are engaging portrayed by excellent actors and they quickly grab a hold of your heart. I was disappointed to learn there would not be a sixth season but enjoyed watching all five seasons on Netflix. Each episode engaged my attention and I eagerly awaited the next episode to find out what happened. The relationships between the characters were very realistic and handled with maturity. I loved the lack of drama between the characters as they all grew in depth and grew to love each other. It was refreshing to see the focus be on love and doing the right thing as opposed to what is usually found on TV....drama...lots and lots of drama and immaturity. These characters struggled with their integrity and showed their humanness through their strengths and weaknesses while choosing to do what was right. They showed it's not easy to do what's right but the rewards are priceless. I love this show, wish there were more seasons and more shows like this one.… Expand

What started out as a fun, humorous and oftentimes cool show with mythology and lore as gotten worse and worse to the point where you watch it thinking, "Why......" Just ... why?!

The show has a budget of 500 dollars and throws lame jokes at you every second they can. The plots get less and less innovative each week until its nauseating. The First Season was pretty decent, and the second alright. But don't bother watching it after then.… Expand

I have made it all the way to season 3, but is still a bit of a struggle, I find myself losing interest or skipping through scene's and when I do, I can see I haven't missed much.

It is very same same, dark fae, light fae, I don't really see the difference. I found the only episode to be any different was when Bo was in Prison for a short time, because it felt like they were doing something different as the series was progressing outside the bar and the shack, but within the same episode, it was back to fighting the dark fae, her back in her shack and me losing interest again.
Dyson, a boring mundane character, Hale who really is a pointless character in the whole series with whistling skills (whoop) that he barely ever uses (because they are pointless) Trick who just is an encyclopedia of fae's and pulls the odd pint. Kenzi is the only one of the characters who makes the show a little more entertaining with her craic and obviously Bo, well she is the eye candy that makes it worth watching.
The only good thing they did mange with this show is to get good looking characters...all besides Lauren, who basically is just a block of wood that does not excud any sexual attraction whatsoever who should be fae...the robot fae.
I don't know how this managed to pull off 5 seasons, but hopefully it will get better, but so far, it's pretty stuck in its ways and has no imagination for a good plot.… Expand

I gave this show a shot based on the Metacritic plot summary; seemed interesting enough. The show turned out to be what I'd term as "very TV" meaning that the directing, acting, writing, and design are all corny and far below the level of quality that you would expect from a movie.

The costume and scenic design are both over the top and completely unbelievable. Not "unrealistic" in a clever way that makes any type of comment, but in an empty Hollywood way where every piece looks as though worked great as a standalone sketch on the drawing board. Somehow the elements don't come together as a whole.

The worst travesties begin with the writing. The initial concept had something going for it; the execution was more or less unimaginative beyond that point. The dialogue is full of cheesy one-liners that lack any real wit, and it is all delivered by actors who are by all means..."acting." I'm not sure there was even a director present who did anything more than tell the editor when to cut camera.… Expand
