Episode 2: Like Hell Part II

This one continues from last episode, with Kenzi realizing she’s buried alive and freaking out. She tries to calm down to preserve some air, though she keeps lighting matches, which would use up a lot of her oxygen. She starts panicking again but hears Dyson and Lauren yelling for her to hang on. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 2”

Episode 1: Like Hell-Part I

This one starts with Bo climbing a column of rock (with a rather obvious projection of surrounding cliffs in the background). She finds a nest at the top and in the nest is the Hell-Shoe she was looking for. (You’ll remember, she needs the Hell-Shoes to go to Valhalla and rescue Kenzi, but the Hell-Shoes are also dangerous, supposedly leading to the End of Days.) Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 1”

Episode 13: Dark Horse

This one starts only minutes after last episode ended, with Bo a tad pissed off at Rainer after being betrayed by his general, Rosette, and watching her jump  into a fire. Rainer says he didn’t know Rosette had turned against him and wonders how powerful Bo’s father really is. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 13”

Episode 12: Origin

This one starts at Hale’s funeral. Dyson is giving a eulogy and Kenzi looks numb. (Although I have to say her dress is a bit weird … like she’s wearing a beaded curtain.) Dyson goes on about how great Hale was and how his family is sequestered in the tomb with his corpse, mourning him. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 12”

Episode 11: End of a Line

This one starts with Kenzi and Tamsin trying to decide which cheesy movie to watch, vampires or zombies (or the cheesiest of all, Jerry Maguire). Kenzi’s still pissed off that Bo is spending so much time with Rainer and keeps shutting her out. Bo overhears and assures Kenzi they are still BFFs. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 11”

Episode 10: Waves

You’ll recall that Bo dropped a bombshell at the end of last episode, showing up at the Dal with Rainer and saying he was cool. This episode starts with Bo staring into a mirror as a voice-over of all her friends arguing plays over the scene. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 10”

Episode 9: Destiny’s Child

This one starts with the train where Bo was imprisoned at the beginning of the season. It seems to be falling apart and there’s someone in a welding mask trying to keep it together. A hole opens in the side of the train and we see the crown the Wanderer offered to Bo lying on the floor. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 9”

Episode 8: Groundhog Fae

This one starts with a “Cool Hand Luke” homage; Bo’s washing her car at a gas station (sexily, of course) and Lauren gets a little worked up. Dyson wanders by and is also mesmerized, but Hale comes out of the gas station eating some candy and snaps them out of it. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 8”

Episode 7: La Fae Époque

This one continues from last episode, with Dyson in the Una Mens’ custody, facing execution. Bo and Kenzi have grabbed one of the Una Mens monks and brought him to the police station so Hale can help get some answers. But Bo’s succubus power doesn’t work on the monk (because he’s a eunuch), so Hale uses his siren powers. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 4, Episode 7”

Episode 6: Of All the Gin Joints

This one starts with an opera singer doing an aria for an audience of one … some guy in an old European-style military uniform. She finishes and he applauds vigorously, then has someone come out to escort her away. She pretends to faint and hums a note into the guy’s ear, which knocks him on his ass.
