Lost Girl was kindly given to me by the SwanCon committee for being a guest. It took me a while to start watching it and I found the first one or two episodes a bit clunky. I really kept watching because Kristen Holden-Ried was convincing in his role.
By halfway through the first disc though, I found I was enjoying it, and there is no doubt there are some similarities between Bo and my fictional character Parrish Plessis – namely her sexual appetite.
Ksenia Solo as Kensi has some great dialogue and her gothicy street kid character is lively, though at times a little over acted. Still some classics lines like “In my defence, the truth is for pussies..”
I’m not sure if I’ll pursue season 2 as the focus shifts towards Bo’s relationship with the human doctor, Lauren, and for some reason this character doesn’t work for me. Not sure if I would find it so entertaining without the Bo and Dyson tension.
Overall, its fun and the fae/dark fae stories are amusing but Holden-Reid definitely makes the series for me so far (oh, and Bo’s crazy mother, Saskia.)
There is an incredible body swap episode in S2, and there’s enough interesting stuff going on between the group that it’s worth watching I think. I’m holding out for S3 to see what happens :3
Thanks Ju, good to know. I’ll probably give it a go!
