Lost Girl is a Canadian fantasy-noir supernatural drama television series that premiered at 9:00 pm on Showcase on Sunday, September 12, 2010. Starring Anna Silk, Lost Girl follows the life of Bo, a bisexual Succubus and powerful warrior, as she learns to control her supernatural abilities, discover the truth about her origins, and help those in need.
Bo was raised by human parents that secretly adopted her when she was an infant. When she was a teenager, she killed her high school boyfriend by uncontrollably draining him of his Chi (life force) energy during her first sexual experience. Not knowing what had happened and unable to understand what she had done, Bo ran away from home, living a life without friends or family, moving from place to place, and changing identities each time she killed again. It was not until she was discovered by the Fae ten years later that she found out she belonged to an ancient order of supernatural beings who have existed for millennia among humans unaware of their secret world. There are two clans in the Fae universe, Light and Dark, and all Fae must choose one of the two — but not Bo. Bo vows to live on her own terms, even if it means existing in the abyss between good and evil.
| "Life is hard when you don't know who you are. It's harder when you don't know what you are. My love carries a death sentence. I was lost for years. Searching while hiding. Only to find that I belong to a world hidden from humans. I won't hide anymore. I will live the life I choose." ~ Bo |
The series was created by Michelle Lovretta, based on an idea by Jay Firestone, and produced by Prodigy Pictures, with the participation of the Canadian Television Fund (Canada Media Fund), a not-for-profit partnership between the Government of Canada and the Canadian cable industry, and in association with Shaw Media. The first season ran for thirteen episodes, followed by twenty-two episodes in the second season, and thirteen episodes in the third and fourth seasons. The fifth and final season consists of sixteen episodes divided into two parts, with the first eight episodes beginning in December 2014 and second eight episodes in Fall 2015.
Lost Girl is rated 14+ in Canada. TV-MA/DLSV (17) in the United States. MA 15+ in Australia. 15 in the United Kingdom and Ireland. [1]

Notes & Trivia[]
- The actual pilot of the series is not the first episode, It's a Fae, Fae, Fae, Fae World. The pilot that sold the series to Showcase is Vexed and was used as the eight episode of Season One.[2] In Vexed, Bo's eyes do not turn blue when she feeds from chi and sexual energy, and there are visible differences in Anna Silk's makeup and hair between the "Bo and Lauren" lovemaking scene and the scene that followed because a problem with the film stock discovered during post-production necessitated the reshoot of the scene.
- Lost Girl premiered in Australia on the Sci Fi Channel (renamed SF Channel) on July 14, 2011; and the United Kingdom (UK and Ireland) on Syfy (UK) on September 1, 2011. It premiered in the United States on Syfy on Monday, January 16, 2012, at 10:00 pm.
- Episodes on Syfy in the United States are edited from their original 44:00 minutes to provide more time for commercial advertisements.
- The DVDs and Blu-rays of Lost Girl contain the original episodes as seen on Showcase.
- Before the end of the first season, Lost Girl was named Number 9 on the list of the top ten illegally downloaded TV shows from the torrent website, The Pirate Bay.[3]
