Okay, whoever it was who uploaded Lost Girl icons recently really needs to share. Because I'm only 15 minutes into the pilot but and my own affection for this show already kind of scares me.

I haven't looked into it at all yet but there seems to be quite a following. Would definitely like a recommendation either way from you :)

A DEFINITE YES.

I haven't even finished watching the pilot but so far we have:

-death of a rapist in the opening.

-protagonist who wears epic boots and is sexy and bisexual.

-hot vampire cop

-hot black supernatural cop

-sexy scientist lady

-scrappy teen girl with a fondness for wigs.

Sound like something you'd like?

UM CHECK YES AT EVERYTHING :D

I'll be catching up on this asap

Hee!

Oooh. Sounds like something I'd dig too. :D

I think you might.

Watched the pilot on your recommendation and I really enjoyed it. I hadn't even heard about this show, so thanks!

Also, I can't get over how much Kris Holden-Ried aka hot vampire cop looks like Chris Martin from Coldplay. The resemblance is almost scary and apparently I'm not the only one who noticed because this was one of the first pics that popped up when I googled him.

Oh, WOW, they do look alike!

It's actually pretty good, isn't it? I saw someone on my flist talking about it and thought, 'oh, why not?' It's amazingly positive! I can't get over it. And it's fun! I'm still in shock.

I really enjoyed the pilot! I'm hoping that it continues to delight me.

Thanks for the rec!

You're welcome!

Oooh, and according to IMDB, there's several episodes out already. I'll have to check it out.

(I've yet to be dissapointed by any of your reccomendations.)
Wednesday, October 27th, 2010 05:25 am (UTC)
I hope this continues the trend!

There have been a lot of icons posted to the show community. Though I'm largely current on eps (haven't seen this week's yet) they seem to be good about not putting spoiler icons outside of cuts.

Also, there have been no vampires yet (unless there's one in ep 6) unless the head of the Light side is one (which I suspect...I hope Morrigan isn't because [a] cliche and [b] I want her to have ties to the mythic Morrigan). If you aren't there yet, we learn what Dyson is in ep 3.

Thank you! And I'm not to episode three yet. Is Dyson the white fae cop?

(unless there's one in ep 6) unless the head of the Light side is one (which I suspect...I hope Morrigan isn't because [a] cliche and [b] I want her to have ties to the mythic Morrigan)

I would be so disappointed if she doesn't. And the costuming for her (at least in the first episode) reminded me delightfully of Bill's maker on True Blood.

Dyson is the frequently shirtless white cop. His partner is Hale.

I actually doubt we'll have vampires in the series, or at least, not for a while. Or if we do, they'll go by another one of their names. While most of it is fairly normal urban fantasy, it seems to be trying to actively avoid some of the most common tropes, and has also had several direct genre meta references.

A description that bodes well for the show.

Interesting. I look forward to those.

This show is awesome! Thanks muchly!

You're very welcome!
