It's (almost) that time again...
Oct. 31st, 2010 10:20 pmA new episode of Lost Girl! (get it while it's hot!)
Ladies and gents, you are in for another Dr. Lauren filled episode, with a pleasing assortment of Dr. Lauren science-girl awesome-ry.
Thoughts:
That pizza guy was totally a Canadian Kellan Lutz, which gave that scene a really weird Twilight meets porn vibe to me. I kept on expecting Emmett to ask Kenzi if she had a little vampire in her, and if not if she wanted to *smirk*.
Bo carries around an axe for protection? To protect her and her lady friend? Oh, Bo. Bo. Your weaponry brings all the girls to the yard.
Murderous Grannies ... surprisingly scary.
Kenzi is ridiculous. That outfit, that act, that accent. It's like she graduated from The Evil Morgana Smirking School of Subtly.
Evil giant spiders and killer grannies ... if this episode has a murderous clown with a giant bird that plucks people's eyes out for a pet, I'm outta here.
Lauren was rocking a Blake Lively-esque Mane of Awesome Warrior Queen hair in that first bar scene. If she'd had on shoulder pads as well, they could have had Lauren catch bullets with her teeth and I would have completely believed it, because gurl was looking FEROCIOUS!
Bo/Lauren/Dyson interaction is really, really, really painful watch. Also, Dyson is a bitch! Fuuuuuck. I called Cenred a Mean Girl, but Cenred has nothing on Dyson. Dyson is a 'spreading rumors about someone's wide-set vagina and telling people Cindy lost her virginity to a hot-dog' BITCH. Though the 'threesome' comment was kind of hilariously awful.
"I can speak for myself." Mmm, Assertive!Lauren. I want to have her power-haired babies!
"Do you always have to be you?" Ha! Seriously, though Bo, you're the one that forgot about your date with Lauren when Dyson asked for your 'help' on a case, so the toxically uncomfortable conversation that followed was in essence your fault.
"Poor Bo. So many choices, just one vag?" LOL. Kenzi, that line almost completely made up for your ENDLESS STUPIDITY and VAPIDITY last episode.
"My head is pounding harder than a sailor on shore leave." LOL! Oh Kenzi. Zing!
So, the Lauren/Kenzi kiss ... actually, really pretty hot. Bo's hallucinations are my kind of hallucinations.
Lauren husking, "Time for a little quid pro quo" with latex gloves on was inappropriately hot. Almost as hot as her motioning across her chest before saying, "Unbutton your shirt".
Random: Lauren and Dyson bitching at each other is kind of hot. I never, ever want to see the hate!tension acted upon, because ... yeah. But it is hot. I think that's mostly due to the fact that Lauren practically seethes in his presence, and her intensity is hot. It's also why I find Lauren's bitchiness awesome and Dyson's bitchiness infuriating.
Dr. Lewis! Dr. Lauren has a last name and it is ... LEWIS! Lauren Lewis. If that's not a classic super-hero name I don't know what is.
"Wee? You could put a saddle on that thing!" Kenzi, yet again! Girls on a roll!
"It tried to bite me In the face! In the face part of my face!" LOL! Kenzi, another zinger to add to the total.
"At least I don't have man-feet!" LOL. Kenzi.
It's awful, but I'm actually kind of upset that we didn't get to see a Bo/Kenzi almost make-out as well.
Serena's fierce! Lauren can hook up with her later if Bo continues to be a clit-tease.
"Feed how exactly from Hale?" BITCH! Damn, Dyson you are such a bitch!
DYSON YOU ARE A FUCKING BITCH, DUDE! You are a bitchsquealing bitch! Lauren just told you ONE of those spiders killed 600 people one time, and that one other time ONE was responsible for a genocide, and you're response is "You didn't even give Bo a chance?" Your comment about Lauren just being a human working for your people already proved that you're an ignorant shit, but now it becomes clear that you are an ignorant, dumb shit! On another note ...
"Less Gaelic wisdom, more searching for make-shift surgical tools." Mmm! Damn, Lauren. Damn.
Lauren giving geeky science explanations.
"You're the one that almost got her killed." UGH, DYSON YOU BITCH! The LSD spider almost got Bo killed. Lauren saved her life by being smart and pragmatic while you wanted to go all Dyson, Smash and risk killing an entire city cause your dumb, ignorant ass was too dumb and ignorant to understand what you were dealing with. Yet, Lauren's the asshole?!?!?! UGH x infinity plus one. I am honestly at the point where I hate this guy now. He is an unmitigated shit!
Preview for next week:
Bo is looking into her past (read: her mother) and is going to be kicking all sorts of ass (and looks to get her ass kicked - badly - as well). The preview ends with the line ... "Tell me who I am or I will cut it out of you!" as Bo holds a knife to Dyson's throat. Looks like it's going to be an intense one.
Overall, very good episode with some funny Bo/Kenzi interactions, badass assertiveness for Lauren, and some progress forward with the Bo/Dr. Lauren relationship. Dyson is beyond obnoxious this episode though, so be warned. This episode took me from being irritated with him to wanting to kill him in the face.

Dear, Dr. Lauren Lewis.
Thank you for calling the quarantine people to stop the LSD spider from escaping and turning Toronto into Raccoon City. Mad props.

Kenzie - Hot and Hilarious
Lauren/Kenzie - Hot like woah
Dyson - Douche Extraordinaire
That it all.

And Dyson really is a Douche Extraordinaire. That's such a perfect term for him. He's been getting progressively more douchey, but this week his douchetitude was out of control. I was like, "Wow, guy. Wow."
I'm glad that Lauren continues to be amazing in every way.
I am seriously...
Date: 2010-11-01 04:49 am (UTC)Janine - btw, really love your blog - stories, recaps...the randomness...it all is made of win. =) But your recaps and thoughts to all things Lost Girl are the best. You're the one that got me hooked on this show that is hot, sexy, funny, and totally kick-a$$. What more could we ask for?

Skimmed your review as I wont be able to watch the episode until later today. Just wanted to gage the level of Lauren-ness I'll be getting :)

Date: 2010-11-01 10:52 am (UTC)The showrunner seems to be pretty sensible, and so I doubt we're going to get an Evil Lauren, like we ended up with Evil HG or in the Merlin-verse Evil Morgana.
It does worry me a bit that Zoie Palmer is still a guest star though. But from comments the showrunner has made they've already got arcs planned for season 2, so I'm hoping Dr. Lauren will be a regular cast member then.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-01 10:55 am (UTC)It bodes well for Bo/Lauren that he's being such a dick though. Honestly, at this point other than making use of his fae healing powers, Bo would be an idiot to pick him over Lauren at this point in time because he's become such as ASS.
And there is plenty of Lauren-ness, which honestly is what makes this episode so good.

no subject
Date: 2010-11-01 04:40 pm (UTC)Still it was not GLARINGLY obvious setup for Bo/Lauren.
No, even with the end it really wasn't since Bo is still hesitant about hurting Lauren, but well it's a step. I have to say that Bo going to Dyson to get healed in the preview really took some of the umph out of that declaration from Dyson at the end of this episode though.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a real step towards Bo/Lauren next episode though. I mean, I think the season is only like 10 episodes long or something, so there better be SOME development (read: KISSING! LOTS OF KISSING!) between these two before the season ends!

Date: 2010-11-01 04:46 pm (UTC)I know, right! She gets dreamier every single episode. I want to have her smart, snarky babies.
(Also, I'm amused that I always call her Dr Lauren, even in my head, and never just Lauren)
I totally know what you mean, she will always be Dr. Lauren in my head. In fact, I'm often surprised when Bo and/or Kenzi call her "Lauren" without the Dr. before it. I can promise you I will never actually call her Dr. Lewis. It's Dr. Lauren or nothing for me, lol.
Dyson can go DIAF.
I know! It's like ... psst, Dyson!
KTHANXZBYE
And Kenzie is hilarious.
Thank god she was back to being funny this episode instead of irritatingly stupid like last episode. As a character Kenzi walks a fine line, this week the writers walked it well, last week ... not so frakking much.

Date: 2010-11-01 05:32 pm (UTC)And Dyson, man, unless they seriously redeem him and soon I'm completely done with Dyson. With the exception of last week, he's just been getting douche-ier and douche-ier, and this week his assholeness was OUT OF CONTROL. Honestly, having Bo pine after him when he asks like this is just making her look really, really bad. It's like have some freaking self-respect Bo, and kick that asshole to the curb. There are other fae out there, and one damn fine human who wants you and RESPECTS you. Shiiiiit.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-01 06:06 pm (UTC)I really hope they're lining Dyson up to be the surprise bad-guy, because at this point I would pay money to see Bo, Lauren or Kenzi kick his arse. What a tool. Lauren has made it pretty clear, time and again, that she takes her orders from The Ash, but suddenly she's meant to be shifty because of it? Whereas dear sweet wolf-boy has been lying to Bo about his allegiances since the first episode. God, he really wound me up this episode.
On a happier note, Lauren was magnificent, and she handled the situation and Dyson's stupidity with just the right amount of brains and back!off!bitch! I hope we have many more Lauren-heavy episodes in store.
Kenzi was funny and I liked her relationship with Bo, even when it turned homicidal, although I wish Bo had shared her Lauren/Kenzi hallucination with her, just to see the reaction.
Bo needs to wise up about Dyson because he's making her look a little pathetic and that's not right.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-01 08:38 pm (UTC)Kenzi rocks, and I like that she speaks Russian occasionally (like in "cleansing" part and when she was freaking out) her antics and one liners crack me up. Hallucination with Lauren was super hot.
Bo/Lauren needs to happen like now!
Yeah, and I hope Lauren's on the good side (that of Bo's) but creepy music when Dyson was speaking about her and where her alliances lie, got me suspicious.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-01 10:27 pm (UTC)... so badly. I mean it wasn't Lauren who put that spider in Kenzi's bag. He should have been grateful that Lauren knew how to get shit done. Lauren was right, he's just being all salty because he wasn't the one that go to save Bo. Get over yourself Dyson!
I really hope Lauren doesn't turn out to be evil. Not only because it would mean no Bo/Lauren, but also because I just don't want to give Dyson the satisfaction of being right. That and I'm afraid they'll have Lauren go to "The Evil Morgana Smirking School of Subtly." And I can only take so much of that. I don't care how hot they are.

Date: 2010-11-04 12:52 am (UTC)Oh, I know. He is so douchey that I just want him and his viewpoint proved wrong. It disturbs me that the show is having Kenzi be so anti-Lauren in addition to having Dyson hating on her. I swear that if they set Lauren up as some lying bitch that's just using Bo (or trying to) for her own (or the Ash's ends) that I am done with this show. I never say this, but I honestly would stop watching the show if that happened. Lauren is the best thing about Lost Girl and if they screw her over/screw her up I'm done.
Lauren has made it pretty clear, time and again, that she takes her orders from The Ash, but suddenly she's meant to be shifty because of it? Whereas dear sweet wolf-boy has been lying to Bo about his allegiances since the first episode.
This! Characters motivations are this show are really murky. Other than Lauren, I never really understand how any of them react in certain situations or say the things they do. Kenzi hating Lauren is mystifying. Dyson hating on Lauren for being loyal to the Ash when he is supposed to be loyal to the Ash and was the Ash's right-hand man in the pilot is mystifying? Bo, BO THE SUCCUBUS, being the one pining for monogamy is mystifying. Honestly, the writing often leaves quite a bit to be desired.
Kenzi was funny and I liked her relationship with Bo, even when it turned homicidal, although I wish Bo had shared her Lauren/Kenzi hallucination with her, just to see the reaction.
Heh. Yeah, the Bo/Kenzi interactions were great and that hallucination was hot.
Bo needs to wise up about Dyson because he's making her look a little pathetic and that's not right.
Word. This whole storyline is making Bo look pathetic and callous. Having her pining away uselessly for boring Dyson while simultaneously courting (and constantly rejecting) Lauren makes her seem like a desperate a-hole. The show really needs to focus on getting Bo back to being awesome like she was in the pilot, because for the last few episodes I have not been able to understand why people are fighting over her.

Date: 2010-11-04 12:59 am (UTC)This. I actually liked him at first, but now I cannot even remember why. He's just such a bitchy douche now that everything I kind of liked about him before (the scruff and the vests) just bug the shit out of me now.
Kenzi speaking Russian was awesome, and she had some great one-liners. I think Ksenia Solo has really great line delivery. And the kiss with Lauren was the high-light of the episode for me. I was surprised it was as hot as it was.
Bo/Lauren really does need to start making some real headway. Especially with Bo being kind of a douche right now, I'm not shipping them as hard as I was at first, and that's sad-making. It's feeling like Lauren is the only one really invested in their 'relationship' right now, and Zoie Palmer brings the heat, but the writing needs to help her out.
Yeah, and I hope Lauren's on the good side (that of Bo's) but creepy music when Dyson was speaking about her and where her alliances lie, got me suspicious.
It makes me suspicious as well. It really disturbs me that the show is having Kenzi be so anti-Lauren in addition to having Dyson hating on her. I swear that if they set Lauren up as some lying bitch that's just using Bo (or trying to) for her own (or the Ash's ends) that I am done with this show.

I know! I really galls me that Dr. Lauren is the only person with any sense on this show, the only person that uses her brain and all of the other characters shit on her (even Bo is douchey to her at times). It's like she's saved Kenzi's life twice, she saved Bo's life (and likely stopped a city from being wiped out) this episode, she's honest and straightforward and yet somehow the other characters act like she's some shifty, two-faced asshole. *is so confused ... and angered!*
but also because I just don't want to give Dyson the satisfaction of being right.
I know right! I would be a huge slap in the face to anyone with a working brain if Dyson turns out to be right. If they make Lauren, Evil Smirking Lauren I'm totally out. She's really the reason that keeps me watching this show, and if they screw her up I'm done. I'm only still watching Merlin because of Morgana/Morgause. Honestly, if Emilia Fox wasn't on the scene I'd have stopped watching Merlin.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-04 01:14 am (UTC)There was that. I was disturbed by the way the show seemed to be trying to make us suspicious of Lauren though. It's like one step forward, two steps back with this show.
His biggest dick move was telling Bo to find someone else to feed off of the next time she's hurt. Like, really, dude? Really!?!
Oh, I know. It's like the Friends-with-Benefits thing was HIS fucking idea (which he then solidified by sleeping with ginger-waitress in the backroom), and now he's getting pissy because Bo is having drinks with Lauren? Like they're not even sleeping together, they haven't even fucking kissed and Dyson is all like *kicks Bo to the curb*
Do I think Lauren will turn out to be evil? Nah, but I'm sure it'll soon be revealed the 'Light Fae' are light in name only. It's, like, TV Trope #17.
I like the idea of the Light Fae being light only in name. My only worry is that they'll have Dyson rebel and Lauren tow the party line and while she won't be Smirkingly Evil she'll be set up as the bad choice and Dyson as the good choice.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-04 06:18 am (UTC)You're not the only one that is confused and angry. At first I thought that maybe they had aired some episodes out of order, because of the way Kenzi felt about Lauren. But nope that is so not the case, the writers just throw this whole 'there's something fishy about Lauren and I don't like her' attitudes and we're just supposed to buy it.
I mean could it have really hurt to show Lauren and Kenzi meeting each other for the first time? The only good thing about Kenzi being antagonistic towards Lauren, is Lauren's annoyed reactions. The looks she gives Kenzi crack me up, because I'm doing the exact same thing while watching.
And I'll be right there with you. Kenzi's one-liners amuse me and Anna Silk is hot and all, but if they ruin Lauren, I won't be sticking around. Especially if she's used to prop Dyson. The show isn't that good. Eh, scratch that, I'd probably stick around if they had Emilia Fox on the show for Lauren to evil smirk with. *sigh* Merlin had SO much potential when it came to doing the evil Morgana storyline. Boy have they screwed that one up. Sometimes I think maybe it's not so bad that Legend of the Seeker is over. This way there's no chance of the show going completely down hill and us just barely hanging on.
