roela-70537 I don't care who says what because if you do not like this series you have a serious problem this is the best horror fiction that I have watched in a long time and the emotional bond you get with the characters makes you cry with them you feel every characters emotions run through you best actors best producers everything is 100% perfect would not change a thing where as true blood and all that other's have none of that and could stand to switch out some actors.

defmuse I don't mean "confusing" in an intellectual way (which is impossible with this series); I'm puzzled as to why this show tries to be adult (with sexuality & blood), but then nullifies said mature theme with the CHEESIEST lines & acting I have heard & seen in a long time. It's as if the writers picked out a "Cheesy Lines For Dummies" handbook & crammed 50 years of unoriginal 1-liners into every episode.I watched ALL 5 seasons hoping it would get better. I generally liked each episode's ideas & how expansive they got with each supernatural theme. But the acting & dialogue killed that enjoyment (esp. that of Ksenia Solo). Personally, the only people who brought anything likable (in terms of acting) to this show were Zoey Palmer & Paul Amos. All in all, if you're a supernatural, sci-fi, fantasy obsessor like me, you'll cringe, but still enjoy it all.SPOILER ALERT: If Ksenia had been killed off in ANY of the seasons, I would have changed my rating to a 7.

WakenPayne I know a bunch of super-fans for the show, I personally have no qualms towards the fan base and if you want me to be honest, if we went by the first Season alone I would have given the show an 8 or 9. Then the second season came, it had less of a memorable villain and obviously filler episodes of which while some situations can be funny, they weren't anything special. Then the third season came out, it was a step back in the right direction with fewer story lines and promise for an epic villain for the first time in the show's history... Then we get easily the most embarrassing story-arc in Canadian TV History as payoff to the year audiences waited.So what's the storyline? Bo is for an unexplained reason a succubus and accidentally stumbles on the community of the Fae with the help of her friends decide to stop whatever threat comes to the Fae world and find out Bo's exact heritage while having bisexual sex along the way.Okay, the plot is stock but I will say there are 2 things I really REALLY enjoyed in the show. I do like that Bo being bisexual isn't her only defining character and put on top of that the fact that the bisexuality is never portrayed as a problem like other things and it seems like a very mature way to write the character, I'm straight myself but I do like seeing this happen.The other thing. Kenzi maybe my absolute favourite comedic relief in all of fiction. In the first season almost everything she says is hilarious from the line "I just saw you eat some dude's face, it was AMAZING!" I was hooked onto the show and probably it was the reason why I managed to get through to the end of Season 4. Okay, she was more drama-oriented at the end which is understandable but I was invested, and probably the only thing I actually WAS invested in that season considering the circumstances were more sympathetic then anything that was happening with Bo.Okay, now to address the elephant in the room. Rainer. People have already talked to great lengths about how insipid the entire story was. The story goes that the big epic villain they were building up and people were outright scared of turns out to be Bo's new boyfriend which she came to the conclusion that he's more worth protecting then any of her friends and throws them out despite the end of the third season being that he kidnaps her, so she falls in love with him over the course of the single half of an episode told in flashback (which being that it was explained that time ran faster on the place he kidnaps her, making a day being the time between seasons 3 and 4) and she rather saves his life on the possibility that doing this might unleash the gates of hell instead of chasing after the man that murders her best friend's fiancé in their own living room and you know how saving Rainer's life results in "World go BOOM!"... She does this and he dies one episode later and not only that but they change it so that he's not the epic villain... no, he's supposed to be the one to root for... With all respect the one thing I was thinking when watching the season 4 finale was "F^&*$KING END!!!!!!!!!!". If this is not the single worst story-arc in Canadian television history, I don't want to know what is.Onto the problems with the show I have in general. In the first season there were clear places belonging to the light and the dark which just gets dropped in Season 2 onwards. The guest stars, while they got George Takei and Linda Hamilton I will say that as the show goes on they get worse and worse (the 2 worst being Rainer's Edward-Cullen-esque brooding and Massimo's... um? Norman Bates if half the time he auditioned for a Death Metal band as played by Jerry Lewis is the best way to describe him... Didn't I already say Season 4 was embarrassing?). It's also kind of obvious that they just add stuff in towards the end. Oh and being that they killed off Kenzi, as in the sole reason I watch the show at the end of Season 4 all I have to say is "Thank you, you have now finished off having me watch the fifth season and destroyed any of my passing interest in the show again".There are some good things, especially in the first season. Part of me would have wanted to see Michelle Lovretta take on all the seasons as opposed to the show-runner's being constantly changed. I will also say that there are good episodes of this show after that (the last good one being Of All The Gin Joints, it then floated on being okay for a couple of episodes then becomes insulting). At this point I will say watch all of it but approach the fourth season's last 5 episodes with extreme caution, especially when I also say that the last 2 are the worst in the show's history.

ne_katja_girl Lost Girl-- This show started out with great promise. I found it on Netflix and quickly did a Netflix marathon of the two seasons that were available and then scrounged around the web to find the episodes to catch up on season 3.I greatly enjoyed season 1. Bo was kicking butt and we, the audience, were with her learning about this new life she now has. I loved the trusty sidekick in Kenzi with her smart mouth; Dyson and Hale working cases that were on the more . . . difficult to explain side; and of course, Trick, the wise Fae who is looking out for Bo. Season 1 had a lot of great energy, interesting story lines, and overall, just a great plot that was moving along.Then season 2 (followed by 3 and 4) happened. I don't know if I was just bored with the story or what. What was once a "MUST SEE EVERY EPISODE OR I'LL DIE" attitude, has now become blasé. I feel like the writers are pushing the characters into a direction that feels forced instead of natural. As the seasons have progressed, I had considered Bo to be this powerful Fae who is kicking butt and taking names, but seems now meek and more human rather than being this awesome Fae. What was once this great direction, now has many of the characters written in a way that is almost a complete 180 from where the show started (and not in a good way).I love how the show is big on showing relationships between same genders. I think we need more of this on TV; however, Bo was once this dynamic character and for the writers to have "Doccubus" they have written her as a static character trying to be dynamic but not succeeding. And to say the least, I am so over this love triangle. C'mon, writers, just resolve this. I am tired of watching episode after episode of Bo going back-and-forth. JUST PICK ONE ALREADY AND STAY WITH IT. The writers focus so much on Bo's love interest, the story gets pushed to the side and feels like it is thrown together.I wasn't able to finish season 4 and I may catch up when new episodes start appearing in 2015, but I am not holding out hope when there are other shows that have kept my interest continually.
