Lost Girl 'Lovers. Apart.' review: Elemental whisperer


Welcome back, Bo. We’ve missed you! Anna Silk’s bigger presence in this episode just confirmed what I believe most of us felt during the past couple of episodes: We need Bo. Yes, the supporting characters are great, but ultimately this is Bo’s show — and I’m certainly glad that she’s back. I’ll still venture to say that during the premiere, it wasn’t so dire because of its whacky premise. More so, the premiere still chose to have a lead character: Kenzi. The previous episode tried to mesh everyone together in an ensemble, and it just didn’t work. Even this episode, where Bo’s back, lacks some of the rest of the cast; it’s better than last week’s, but it still leaves something to be desired.

Lost Girl 'Sleeping Beauty School' review: Fatal express

Sorry about the delay! As if anyone reads this, but if you do and want to know what delayed me: college life! November as a college student is overwhelming. Anyway, let's get into this episode.


There's no simple way to say this, but this wasn't exactly my favorite episode of the series. Where the season four premiere made a strong case for the series without Bo and for the show to be carried by its supporting players, this episode did not. I think a lot of that has to do with the premise of the premiere episode, of course. "In Memoriam" set itself up for campy success when it had everyone lose their memories. It also had quite an easy plot to follow, perhaps too simple, but never confusing. Everyone was trying to get the compass to regain their memories.

Lost Girl 'In Memoriam' review: My death was greatly exaggerated

"All that's kept me alive is my hate."
—Aife

The season four premiere of Lost Girl made the case for a show headlined by Ksenia Solo — and it exceeded expectations. Due to a real life pregnancy, Anna Silk had to sit out of the major duties for the premiere (and perhaps the next episode, too), and while Bo was greatly missed, I can't lie and say that I wasn't at all entertained by this episode. In fact, I was quite entertained by this episode. If Lost Girl can keep up the energy from this premiere, it may have a home run season. I don't think an episode has ever felt more assured, weaving all elements of the series together quite naturally.

And did you see that cinematography? I could go on and on about that aspect. But I won't indulge in the geekiness.

Lost Girl season 4 premieres today! Here are 4 reasons you should watch

I have bad news, everyone: a somewhat groundbreaking show has been on the airwaves for three years now and you've been missing it. Yep, sorry to break it to you; I also hate it when I've been missing awesome television.

The truth is that Lost Girl isn't breaking the bank most of the time. The creators know it; the fans know it; and it really doesn't matter. That's because what Lost Girl can't bring in spectacle, it makes up for in charm — and trust me, you're going to like it. People asked me to watch it over the summer, and I'm very glad I did.

Lost Girl is the story about Bo, a succubus who is always in dire need of sexual healing. The only problem is that her recreation can kill, and being "fae" comes with its own set of issues. Think Angel meets Chuck, and you kind of have Lost Girl. I won't bore you with a long diatribe, but here's why you should watch, in no particular order:
