lgAha!

This time I loved the Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried) and Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten) storyline, you know they’re setting stuff up! A field that is a mass grave of light and dark Fae that someone is hunting down and watching said field via camera… Cool! We learn from this that Bo did not kill the woman, who’s twin comes looking for her at Hale’s (K.C. Collins) urging. Tamsin also warns Dyson that something big is coming, despite being soaked in alcohol when she did it.

In the A-story, Bo (Anna Silk) and Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) are off to a gated community (shades of Desperate Housewives!) to help a young babysitter who is having a bit of a problem.

This week’s episode is directed by Lee Rose and scripted by Sandra Chwialkowska, and it balances everything really nicely, and throws us leaps and bounds closer to the season finale, while opening up the scope of what is going on .

fieldThe episode starts off with a couple of brilliant lines though, Kenzi saying she has a vibrant inner life, and Bo saying that reminds her they need to pick up more batteries. Hilarious!

And since Bo and Lauren (Zoie Palmer) are on a break the gals take on a case for a change, and it’s really fun to see Bo and Kenzi spending time together. They have such great chemistry together.

You also have to wonder if The Wanderer used this poor babysitter, and a couple of ladies playing at being witches – Susan (Sadie LeBlanc) and Caroline (Gabrielle Miller), because Bo finds herself in a park with a merry-go-round/carousel that is playing that familiar Dion tune. It’s also where the witches get together to invoke the babysitter, who is actually Fae and doesn’t know it. And that’s not all, she’s all dead, and can be filled with the will of others to kill, which is what the witches have been doing… This poor girl.

kenziandboWe also see Lauren getting courted professionally and probably personally as well by Isaac (Shawn Doyle), and he has also dug up some information on her as well… including another name, Karen Beattie, and Karen is a fugitive… Hmmm!

And after Hale turns down her request for a sabbatical, causing Lauren to make a comment about power revealing a person’s true nature, she takes Isaac up on his offer and leaves, including a ringing phone with Bo on the other end.

I do hope Isaac is just a fella, but what if we find out he knows EXACTLY who Lauren is, and is one of those hunting the Fae, planning on using her for information to find Fae, maybe even Bo… is there a connection between the hunting and The Wanderer or are the two separate and increasing threats?

It was great to see Hale, but he’s being a bit of a douche, but I’m sure heavy lays the crown. It was also a lot of fun seeing Kenzi taking on baby-sitting and realizing that she sounds like her mother when issuing a threat to her ward.

There are two episodes left in the season, what are you thinking is going to happen? What are you hoping to see?

Lost Girl S03E05 – Faes Wide Shut

This week’s episode of Lost Girl begins to give us more questions about what’s going on with our heroes than answers.

Bo (Anna Silk) and Lauren (Zoie Palmer) are trying to find a balance between their relationship, and Bo’s need to feed. While they agree that it’s best that Bo has some extracurricular activities you can see in Lauren’s eyes that she’s of two minds about it. The scientific side of her realizes that Bo needs more than her to survive, but the emotional side is more than a little hurt by it I think.

It gets worse when the little dalliance that Bo brings back to the apartment winds up dead not so very far away… And both Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten) and Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried) are starting to think that the unaligned succubus may have more to do with it than she’s admitting to. Dyson doesn’t believe she’s capable of murder, but her scent on the body is unmistakable. Tamsin, affiliated as she is with the Dark, is more than willing to believe the Bo murdered the woman, and the other fae from the end of episode 1. Trouble is coming to Bo town…

bolaurenkenziIn the interim though Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) has run down a case for her and her bestie to investigate, it seems a human male has simply collapsed into a pile of green goo. Their leads bring them to a sex club, a Bacchanalia, run by Roman (Damon Runyan), who as our heroes investigate learn some rather troubling things, and a new sub-fae is introduced and partially glimpsed, and let me just say, GAH!

Woven through all of this, are secrets, there is so much going on here now that we don’t know. I was struck halfway through the episode that our trio, Lauren, Bo and Kenzi are all keeping things from each other, whether they know it or not. Bo, in the episode’s climax goes all glowy-eyed again, and threatens Lauren, until the good doctor talks her down slowly… but now Lauren knows something is terribly wrong with her lover. A fact she shares with someone via phone at the end of the episode. Who?

kenziThen of course, there’s the whole thing with Kenzi. At the tail end of last week’s episode we saw Kenzi pulled off into the dark, and yet this week, here she is. Bo even mentions the phone call that Kenzi made before she was grabbed, so it’s not something we dreamed about.

We also see through the course of the episode that this is not the Kenzi we know and love, she’s manipulative and cruel, trying to turn Bo and Lauren against one another, and a total lack of compassion for anyone else but herself. This is not our Kenzi.

Despite that, Bo doesn’t do anything about odd-Kenzi until the episode’s end, when she slams her up against a column and demands to know where Kenzi really is!!

annaA strong episode, seriously lacking in Trick (Rock Howland) though. Our fave King only has about 3 scenes, though his delivery of the line “So many glasses to polish” is priceless as well as his dialogue with Kenzi clarifying that he did not say anything about being Bo’s grandfather and going to the Bacchanalia.

Keep these strong episodes coming, but please, more Trick and hey, how about some with our temporary Ash, Hale (K.C. Collins)?

And maybe some answers…

Just saying.

Lost Girl S03E04 – Fae-de to Black

First off… Poor Kenzi (Ksenia Solo). She gets the worst of it this episode, as she keeps trying to tell people about the infection/wound on her arm, but no one seems to have time for her. And then the episode’s ending!

I thought it was especially cold when Trick (Rick Howland) says that everyone loves her, but she’s not one of them.

Cold and harsh.

The main thrust of this week’s episode, written by Alexandra Zarowny, has to do with couples, Bo (Anna Silk) and Lauren (Zoie Palmer), Bo and Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried), Dyson and Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten), and Kenzi trying to connect with Bo and Hale (K.C. Collins).

People are dying through apparent suicide around the city, yet all of them, seem to be dying in odd ways, a man who wants to be a superhero, another who wants to be a tight-rope walker, and our friend the wolf wanting to realize his childhood dream as something else.

I’ll be honest, as soon as we learned the fae-of-the-week, who lives off adrenaline, was a shape-shifter, I knew who it was. Sorry.

This is also a much more serious episode, than previous ones this season. Yes, the comedy is still there, but this week, they’re eschewing the comedy to tell a relationship story.

bolauren1At the center of course is Bo and Lauren… Bo is trying to keep her energy up, because she isn’t feeling on anyone else but Lauren, and it’s not sustaining her, even though she loves her. She is a succubus after all. Dyson notices and makes a comment about her looking hungry.

Dyson recruits Bo to go under cover at the clinic that all the ‘suicide’ victims have come from, posing as a couples therapist, which does allow for a little fun, with her first appointment, but also causes a little grief when Bo comments to Lauren that the ‘doctor stuff’ is easier than she thought.

There are a couple of red herrings in this week’s episode, the regression therapist, the suicide-fae who works as a receptionist. As a side note, what a terrible Fae to be! Living off of the emotional energy of despair given off by a suicide. That’s so sad.

dysonFor the most part though, this episode was about putting Bo and Lauren’s first relationship hurdle in front of them, and I’ll be honest, there was a moment, when I thought we were watching Lauren’s heart breaking, as she realizes she can’t be enough for Bo. But the two of them lay some ground rules, and are going forward.

That made me smile. Lauren is amazing, and of course wonderfully played by Zoie.

All through the episode though, I just wanted someone to please talk to Kenzi, and it was heartbreaking that Hale was forced by his role as the Ash to push her aside, and focus on ruling the Light. If someone would only have stopped and listened to her, then maybe she wouldn’t have the problems you just know are coming down the pipe towards her.

And what the hell grabbed her? Does it have something to do with whatever’s happening to her? I hope so, in that I don’t want it to lead into a monster-fae-of-the-week episode next week, but that it’s part of the season arc.

What are your thoughts on this week’s episode?

Lost Girl S03E03 – Confaegion

lgJames Thorpe pens this weeks episode, which may be my fave episode of the season, and probably in my top 5 of the series.

Confaegion sees the return of the Morrigan (Emmanuelle Vaugier), she’s still determined to get Bo (Anna Silk) out-of-the-way once and for all, and has a plan which sees her recruiting Vex (Paul Amos), unknowingly.

Paul continues to steal scenes, delightfully, and it’s so good to see him have so much more to do this season.

Vex is still dealing with his mesmer impotence,and the fact that neither side seems to want him, so he’s been crashing on Bo’s couch. He also has a pretty hilarious scene with Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) where he gives her some makeup secrets. These two together are gold, though I still long to see Hale (K.C. Colllins) and Kenzi share some screen time again.

The Morrigan plants something on Vex, which releases parasites, that seems to regress our heroes to a teenaged mentality. It regresses them to a point before their Fae abilities blossomed, making them vulnerable to attack, especially since the parasite releases a pungent scent that only some aggressive under-Fae (read as pig men) can detect.

kseniaI’m also very sure it will have a number of lines that show up in the fan lexicon, like Dyson’s (Kris Holden-Ried) “I got to be Kenzi once… nailed it.” Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten), who is apparently a Valkyrie, Bo and Dyson all hang out together and are like a trio of terrible teenagers… talk about comedy gold. Spin the Bottle with new rules… Dyson dancing for the girls, bare-chested, to Duran Duran’s Hungry Like the Wolf… Bo and Tamsin (or Tammy as Bo starts calling her) telling each other their darkest secrets in poem form. It’s all priceless stuff, and there may be important things planted there for later in the season amongst all the fun. The three of them are hilarious together.

Meanwhile Kenzi is stuck to the Staff of Truth, which allows her to have her superhero moments, defending their apartment from the pig-men who show up, and kicking some serious ass. During all of this she clashes with Lauren (Zoie Palmer) over Bo, who is struggling to figure out what is going on, and hopefully develop an antidote in time.

We also get a little more back story on Lauren, and where she studied medicine and served. Some nice little reveals there. And I love that they have the I’m her best friend, and I’m her girlfriend talk. The two of them get some nice bonding time in this episode.

paulAnd Vex makes some hard decisions towards the end of the episode, especially after the Morrigan lets him in on the plan, and offers him a place with the Dark again.

Finally, Hale (K.C. Collins) as the new Ash goes toe-to-toe with the Morrigan, and lays a smack-down or two.

This episode is tightly written, wonderfully comedic, and makes sure that all of our characters get a moment, or two, though, Trick (Rick Howland) is sadly underused in this episode.

It’s going to take a lot for future episodes to oust this one as a season/series favorite, but I do hope they try! The writing this season hasn’t made a misstep yet! I loved that Anna, Kris and Rachel got to play a little more comedic, and I was so happy that Kenzi got her superhero moments. It was long overdue, and made a nice change from her involvement in a muddy fight sequence at the top of the episode.

Keep it up Lost Girl! I am loving it!

Lost Girl S03E02 – Subterrfaenean

lgSteve Cochrane pens the second episode of the season which sees Bo confronting two legends, one urban, and one storybook. But before I go any further, can I just ask if I can get the Fae phone network that Bo (Anna Silk) and Trick (Rick Howland) use? It works underground in forgotten tunnels! – Not that I spend a lot of time in those, but it would be a great phone service to have…

Introduction of Rachel Skarsten as Dyson’s new partner, Tamsin who is aligned with the Dark…. Who already suspects Bo’s involvement in an attack on a Dark Fae (see the end of S03E01).

Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) is involved in trying to resolve the rumors of an alligator in the sewers (I can never hear that phrase without thinking of Gertie in E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial) – who we learn is a Fae named Atticus (Jordan Pettle). It seems Atticus is the prime suspect in a series of attacks that are occurring underground.

As Bo investigates we learn that the people and Fae aren’t being killed, but they do return, sick, infected somehow. As suspicion seems to slide off of Atticus, who, is a proper Southern gentleman, mourning the loss of loved ones down in the dark, Bo begins to suspect that there is something else going on.

She finds a huge Fae relocation program underway, seen over by Bob Hammelin (Ted Atherton).

And if that name isn’t a give away to the other legend that is explored in this episode, I won’t spoil it for you.

lostgirl302There are some great bits in this episode, a dream weaver, Eunice (Phyllis Ellis), who uses a spinning wheel and a piece of hair, who is annoying Trick, though he brought her in to help with Bo’s nightmares (read as repressed memories). Tamsin’s sparring with Dyson, both verbally and physically. Anything with Vex (Paul Amos), he continues to steal every scene he’s in. And, of course, Bo and Lauren (Zoie Palmer) playing in bed! There’s also a wonderful use of more adult language this season already, and I was “Wow! Got away with that on Showcase, NICE!” Trick, sadly, isn’t around enough, nor is Hale (K.C. Collins) for that matter. Still, the season is just getting started.

I love the fact that not only did Bo feed, but she fed off a Dark Fae, and that will have repercussions, and Tamsin seems to be intent on making sure they come about sooner rather than later. She also gets a look at the tapestry Eunice was weaving before the image faded from it. An image that looks a lot like a rather evil-looking Bo violently feeding. It’s backed up by Eunice saying it was probably something Bo ate before she leaves…

tamsinboAlready this season is rocking, it has gotten a little darker, and at least to me, it seems a little more adult (in a good way). It continues to be wonderfully written with a cast we’ve all grown to love, as well as great guest stars.

I’m not completely sold on Tamsin yet, but I do like the new dynamic she’s bringing to the show, I also enjoy the thought of cop partners being on opposite sides of the Fae line, that should bring some nice tension to their relationship, both professional and personal.

What do you think of Tasmin and this week’s ep??

Lost Girl S03E01 – Caged Fae

Posted by TD Rideout on January 8, 2013
Posted in: Did You See That?!? (Tv & Film). Tagged: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , . 1 comment

lgLost Girl roared back on to our screens last night with a fun, and sexy, season premiere, called Caged Fae, or Lost Girl Meets Caged Heat.

After waiting, seemingly interminable months, we finally get to rejoin our Fae friends, and it doesn’t seem like too much time has passed, Kenzi’s (Ksenia Solo) rash is still there, so she brushes it off just saying it needs some polysporin. You and I both know that it’s going to cause trouble.

And speaking of trouble, the internet is abuzz with the idea that Bo (Anna Silk) is actually going to be the villain for the season. I’m not entirely sure about that, but I think she’s going to have to fave some very dark things about herself in the episodes to come.

She also murders someone with her abilities, and she hasn’t done that to an innocent for a long time.

bolaurenBo, masquerading as a bit of a criminal, ends up in a prison run by Amazons, to investigate the disappearance of the prison’s previous doctor, Lauren’s (Zoie Palmer) mentor. You get the requisite shower sequence, the fitted coveralls, and sexy costumes for work detail.

Written by Emily Andras, the season opener has a great sense of fun about it. The show allows us to draw up a stool, and  welcomes us back to the Dal, where Hale (K.C. Collins) is installed as the Acting Ash. Vex (Paul Amos) seems to be really enjoying himself, and being exceptionally flirty with any and all that come along, and his police officer get-up is just a hoot!

And speaking of a hoot, Trick (Rick Howland) talking about geezing it up with the flappers when the Dal was a speak easy back in the day, and how much of a hootenany it was priceless. I could just Trick whooping it up in the day. Awesome.

annaThe first season helped established the show and the world, the second allowed the characters to grow, this season hopefully we get to see them play.

I am hoping that we do get to go a little dark this season, that Bo explores her dark side. We already know Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried) is gonna be a little cranky for a while, as it seems that Bo has made her choice and wants to give a relationship with Lauren a chance, YES!

Highlights of the episode included Kenzi showing up as Bo’s human lover, “The shorter the lifespan, the deeper the quicksand,” any scene with Vex (he’s still a scene-stealer), and of course Bo looking fantastic in anything she’s wearing.

I can’t wait to see where the season goes, admittedly it’s a shorter season this time around, but that means things are going to move quickly, and probably be very intense.

Such a fun and sexy episode, which continued to expand the Fae universe by introducing new twists on classic lore, and builds the relationship of our core group, setting up the dynamic for episodes to come.

Bring it on!

Lost Girl, Our Heroes’ Journey

So here we are days away from the season 2 finale of Lost Girl on Showcase here in Canada.

We thought it would be a nice idea to look at the journey the characters of Team Bo have gone on this season without spoiling for those readers who are watching it as it airs on Syfy, or on other channels around the world.

So… you know… despite the fact that I’m keeping it ambiguous… SPOILERS!

Vex.

While he’s only shown up in a handful of episodes of Season 2, Paul Amos’ Vex always leaves an impression. While he’s vowed to the Dark Fae, he’s proving to be very useful to Bo, especially as we race towards the climax of Season 2. He’s snide, crass, wickedly dressed, an awesome mesmer (the Morrigan’s dance scene is going down as classic Vex) and yes, Dark Fae. But he’s started to realize somewhere in the recess of his mind that if he doesn’t fight for what he believes in with Bo against the Garuda, he’s not going to have all the fun he so treasures. It may be selfish, but he’s finally fighting for something more than himself, there may be hope for him yet.

Trick.

Rick Howland continues to imbue the Blood King with wisdom, charm, and the occasional zinger.

While still running the Way Station that is The Dal Riata, Trick is opening himself up more to those around him. I get the impression that before Bo came along, he may have been friendly with the Fae who came in through his doors, in that bar keep kinda way, but he kept the world at a distance, keeping his secrets and past safe. This year we’ve learned more about him in single episodes than was ever revealed in the entire first season. We know he’s got more secrets yet, but we also know that with Bo around, chances are, he’ll reveal them to her. He’s also beginning to assert himself stronger in the Fae world, revealing who he is, more of his abilities, and what has happened to many members of his family.

Hale.

K.C. Collins has taken the resident siren, and made him his own.

A sharp-dresser, a loyal friend, a member of a power family (from whom he’s tried to distance himself), Hale has become a force to be reckoned with in the second season, especially when trouble arises between him and his partner, Dyson. He has however fostered a friendship, burgeoning on romance, with Kenzi, which if it happens, will have repercussions in the Fae world, humans can be played with, can be pets, can be food, but a relationship?? Hale stepped into the void left by the departure of Dyson, becoming more independent, stronger, more confident, and he knows where his allegiance lies. It’ll be interesting to see if Dyson and he can reconnect on a friend level now that the dynamic between them has changed.

Dyson.

Kris Holden-Ried’s character has been a bit of a douche this season. Sorry to say, but it’s true. It’s also not really his fault. He’s simply living with the consequences of the choices that he made in the first season’s finale when he gave up his love to save to Bo.

He’s struggled with it for most of the season, even flirting with a relationship with an old friend, Ciara.

But for all that, he has consistently distanced himself from the group, until now, as we close in on the finale, he’s almost an outsider, though his actions in 2.20 and 2.21 are doing a bit to redeem that. It’ll be interesting to see the part he plays in the apocalypse, and how he fits back into the group should they survive…

Lauren.

Oh Zoie Palmer… Your character has not had a good year. It started out well enough, well mostly. Nadia, her girlfriend, who had long been in a coma, has been returned to her life through the unselfish actions of Bo.

But that of course, also put whatever she and Bo had on hold, indefinitely.

Then of course, as these things do in the Fae world, things go sideways for her. And if anything is gonna cause problems between her and Bo, I couldn’t think of anything worse than Nadia’s death, even if she was being controlled by the Garuda. There’s gonna be all kinds of guilt and anger issues over THAT!

Kenzi.

Ksenia Solo continues to rock the queen of quips through the entire season. While, she was always sure of herself in the first season, she has settled into her role as Bo’s bestie, and has become stronger and more confident because of this relationship. We also saw that she finally got a relationship of her own, with Aaron Ashmore’s Nate. But when the choice comes down between standing by Bo, or following the man she loves…

Oh Kenzi.

Bo.

Anna Silk is simply awesome. Bo is still Lost, but she’s beginning to find her way. The season has seen the development of her powers, though she hasn’t learned to control them all yet. She’s also settled into her leadership role of the group. She’s romanced the dark side with Ryan, restored the love life of her friend, and learned more about her family. She’s fought, struggled, worked for the Ash, stolen from his home, battled baddies, and stood by her friends every step of the way.

Anna embodies Bo completely and we, as her fans, have followed her faithfully through the season, marching towards the upcoming showdown with the Garuda… and beyond… bring on Season 3!

Sue and I met and survived our first encounter with a Dark Fae. Paul Amos, who plays Vex on Lost Girl, graciously met us for drinks at C’est What, a gorgeous little pub here in Toronto

We had a great talk about his fave movies, Canadian television and advertising, and of course Lost Girl, as well as some interesting insights into the Fae. Overall, he’s a humble guy, a lot of fun to go drinking with, and seems to revel in his role as Vex.

So get comfy, get ready to laugh, celebrate the return of Lost Girl to Canadian television screens this weekend and come and walk on the Dark side with Paul Amos.

Lost Girl Fall Finale 2×13 Barometz. Trick. Pressure.

Lost Girl had it’s mid-season finale this Sunday, and what a way to leave us hanging!

They’ve ratcheted things up a notch, and there is now a palatable threat hanging over our band of heroes.

SPOILERS!!!!

I did notice that whether by design or not, the important humans in their lives have been moved out of the way. The more I think about it, I do think that could be by design, or enemy action. We’ll see how that plays out.

But I’m jumping ahead, the episode is finally, and long overdue, Trick heavy, who reveals that the blood moon is almost upon us. It is during this rare event that he can enter a trance and divine the future, or at least parts of it. This time he wants to have a look at the Big Bad that is coming their way.

He gets his wish, and then some.

He sends Bo to secure a sacred ring that will staunch his blood flow during the trance, which as we know is important, because his blood can change destinies and futures. Bo goes to recover the ring from a shape-shifter and has a wonderful little face-off against… herself, in a very enjoyable scene.

It, along with Hale’s being put out over just finally learning who Trick is, the darts tee, and Kenzi’s lovefest, provided a few laughs, which was good, because the laughs provided much needed levity as we learn how bad things are going to get.

Whilst in the trance, Trick and Lost Girl presented me with one of my favorite sequences that must have been a huge technical challenge. Trick is at a drive-in theater, and is also on the screen in a completely different environment, yet their matching movements and dialogue are damned near perfect.

Trick’s wife, who died in the Fae war, appears to him, and begs him to use his blood to rewrite the peace that he brokered between the light and the dark fae ending the battles.

This is when Trick realizes there is something wrong, and there’s someone/something else with them at the drive-in.

Meanwhile Bo confronts The Ash about Lauren, not to mention his box of multiple heads…

And amidst a series of revelations and a sword fight in which it appeared (to me at least) that The Ash was kind of toying with Bo, he asks her to lead the fight in the battle against the evil the Nain Rouge warned about and the one that Trick has just discovered in his trance…

A species thought to be extinct has in fact survived in limited numbers, and much like the occasional Fae will prey off a human, these creatures, Garuda by name, feed off the anger and rage of Fae (perhaps they were behind the war that Trick ended).

And they are back with a vengeance…

Injuring Trick, Hale and Dyson…

Leaving Bo to save the world tomorrow (well January-ish for us)…

That could be a long wait…
