I don't even ... but it was so good!
Nov. 7th, 2010 10:25 pmLost Girl - 1x08 - "Vexed" is INSANE!
You guys, this episode of Lost Girl was so surreal. It's like, since the pilot there's been the actual Lost Girl and then in my mind there's been the 'Lost Girl that 'could be'. This episode was like the Lost Girl that could be. But it was so weird to watch because there was like no hint from the previous episodes that it was going get good like this! CAUSE OMG THIS EPISODE.
I've put all of my live-action reactions to the episode behind the cut as usual, but I almost want to tell you not to read it so that you can experience this ... whatever this was of an episode fresh.
Best music video opening sequence goes to Lost Girl. It was like George Micheal's "Freedom" video up in there ya'll. I kept on expecting to see Christie Turlington in a bathtub. But as much as I complain about Dyson, and the over-abundance of Bo/Dyson sex scenes, I have to say this one can stay, because even though it was kind of creepy, it was also pretty hot. Also, Lost Girl now officially features ass!
Dyson: She's just using you. She'll never love you.
Bo: Who said anything about love. And you don't know that.
Me: Ooo ... oh.
I don't quite understand Dyson's constant complaints that Lauren is using Bo currently though, since Lauren and Bo haven't so much as kissed. I wonder if Bo's been letting him think that she and Lauren are doing a lot more in the lab together than they are.
Dr. Hot Pants. Hey, Kenzi we can be friends again.
Um, I kind of really like Bo when she's being a violent asshole. In fact I like her to a worrying degree. The show definitely needs to keep Anna Silk in minimal make-out because run-down Bo was all kinds of hot. Seriously. Bo is coming apart at the seams in this episode, but she's never been this hot to me - not even in the pilot which was when I previously thought Bo was at her hottest.
"I like your necklace." Nice, Bo. I think what you really meant to say was, "Heh, I touched your boob."
Ugh, screw you poorly planned season. This conversation with Bo and Lauren - sexy and flirty as it is - and it is, seems like it should have happened in an earlier episode, because considering how long they've been working together on Bo's control it makes no sense that Lauren wasn't already aware of Bo's arrangement with Dyson. UGH! Writers I see you trying to shove information in there that should have been revealed in those Dr. Lauren-free episodes from earlier in the season.
Lauren: *upon finding out about Bo's healing arrangement with Dyson* As your doctor I'd just prefer if you choose someone ... slightly less well-traveled.
Me: Heh.
UGH, what is it about this episode? I actually really like this episode and the tone of it, but it's coming out of nowhere! Bo's so intense and angry and hot but there's been like NO build up to it whatsoever. Last week it was all awkward dates and fun with spiders, and now all of a sudden Bo is super-super-duper-duper about finding out who her mother was right this frakking minute goddammit I will cut it out of you!
Also, Bo and Dyson are barely even frenemies currently but it's come out of nowhwere. I mean, I know last week there was the Dyson/Lauren pissing contest over Bo and Dyson making his big 'No healing for you' pronouncement, but I still didn't expect that there would be THIS level of animosity between them. It's like I'm watching another show, an intense, dark, sexy show. I like. I like.
Fussy!Lauren is CUTE! She is precious when she's worrying about Bo's big-mouth getting her in trouble.
"Still so charming." Heh. Ash I've been sarcastically thinking the same thing about Bo for a while.
"I'm not finished yet!" OH BO! WHY ARE YOU SO SEXY WHEN YOU ARE ANGRY, BLOODY, AND VENGEFUL?
"Smells like fried bitch!" OH KENZI!
OMG! BO is such a MEGA-bitch this episode. It's like she's on PMS steriods. It's awesome.
So that conversation with the Ash and Lauren was interesting:
1) I'm glad it's established here that Lauren has been completely on the up and up so far with what's she's told Bo and in terms of trying to help her.
2) I don't like that the Ash is tryin' to pimp Lauren out.
So that conversation between Bo and Trick was interesting:
1) I don't like that the Ash "owns" Lauren. It does make me wonder what she did or who she pissed off enough that apparently she had to sell herself to the Ash for protection. It does explain why she is so twitchy around him, and why Dyson is concerned about her loyalty. As a human Lauren is obstensibly tied to the Ash more than a fae would be.
*cries* I so don't like where I see this going ...
"At a certain point it's not about losing control anymore, it's about taking it" - interesting words Trick.
OMG! BO HAS A WITCHBLADE!!!!
I like that Bo has a real reason for fighting for this woman so hard, and that it's all about her big emotional love for Lauren. "And who would want to live it with me?" OMG BO I WANT TO HUG YOU.
KISS FINALLY OMG KISS KISS KISS KISS! MORE KISSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!EVEN MORE KISSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG THEY"RE DOING IT! THEY"RE DOING IT! IN A BED! NAKED! ROLLING IN A BED \\NOBODY OWNS YOU! SEXY!@ OMG!
POST-COITAL 'I"LL BE BACK SOON' KISSES SO CUTE!!!! WHA....NO! NOT SO SOON DON'T TAKE IT AWAY SO SOON!
OMG LAUREN TELL HER! TELL HER!OMG OMG TELLING HER IS NOT WORKING! OMG THIS HAS GONE SO TERRIBLY WRONG SO QUICKLY! OMG! THIS IS A CLUSTER FUCK! THIS IS A CLUSTER-FUCKING CLUSTER -FUCK!
"I didn't do anything wrong?" UM, LAUREN UR MY BB AND ALL, BUT THE FUCK YOU DIDN'T!?!?!?! STILL I UNDERSTAND WHAT UR TRYIN TO SAY, BUT STILL ... DAMN LAUREN.
OH SHIT SHE'S GONNA GIVE HER THE NECKLACE BACK! OH HELL SHE CALLED IT A DOG COLLAR! OMG THIS EPISODE!
BO'S CALLING IN THE DEBT!
BO IS LIKE THE LOVECHILD OF NORIKO FROM 'HEAVENLY SWORD' AND WITCHBLADE!

OH LAUREN YOU'RE SHAKING AND YOU'RE BREAKING MY HEART!

Date: 2010-11-08 10:57 am (UTC)One minute it's like LOOK HOW BAD LAUREN IS. EVIL TRAITOROUS LESBIAN. HETEROSEXUAL IS BETTER. BO AND DYSON FOREVER. And then the next it's like, Bo will fall in true fluffy love with human Lauren and the Fae will hate her while she just sips lemonade and enjoys her white picket fence shit.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU SHOW. STOP TOYING WITH MY HEART
AND MY LOINSWITH YOUR STUPID TENDER LESBIAN SEX.All that aside, angry-to-the-point-of-violence Bo is SMOKIN HOT.
And I honestly can't decide if I'm being all Die For My Ship about Bo/Lauren and hating Dyson because he's in the way, or if I just hate him because he's a fucking asshole. They really like the jealous, territorial wolf thing. I seriously keep expecting Dyson to piss all over Bo every time she's on screen and it's getting more aggravating with each passing episode.

Date: 2010-11-08 12:52 pm (UTC)Yeah, I know right. I was like WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? the whole episode. Apparently this episode was actually like a demo pilot or something which is why Bo was so much darker, and Lauren suddenly forgot things she already knew. In fit into the order of episode fairly well though. One thing that does make me a little happy, it that Lauren/Bo was treated so OTP-ish in this episode which means that from the beginning Lauren/Bo has been viewed as a 'real ship'.
STOP TOYING WITH MY HEART AND MY LOINS WITH YOUR STUPID TENDER LESBIAN SEX.
This is the perfect reaction to the episode. My heart and loins were toyed with as cruelly as Bo's were. They show has officially made me ship Bo/Lauren forever though, so that's something. They are too beautiful and tragic for me not to want to see them get the picket fence and FREEDOM FOR BOTH of them at the end of it all.
And yeah, angry to the point of violence Bo was ridiculously hot. Run-down as she looked for most of the episode, Bo has never been hotter to me.
I honestly can't decide if I'm being all Die For My Ship about Bo/Lauren and hating Dyson because he's in the way, or if I just hate him because he's a fucking asshole.
I KNOW! It's like I was TEAM LAUREN from the pilot, but at least I could understand how Bo (and the audience) was supposed to be torn between them. The more we see, the more it becomes obvious that Lauren is just the superior choice. She's not perfect, but she's far better than Dyson who becomes a more of a punk-ass bitch every episode. He's such a tool. TEAM LAUREN IS THE ONLY TEAM THAT MAKES ANY SENSE! Especially when Dyson lying about knowing Bo's past comes out.
Also, I fucking hate Dyson for talking about how cagey Lauren is without actually telling Bo why. There's only one reason that he wouldn't mention she's a slave, and that's because he knew that it would make Bo want to protect her and drive them closer together. Also, it really makes his snippiness and refusal to follow the rules, and his "your just a human" sassy talk from last episode seem like an even bigger douche, because he KNEW that the Ash could punish her AND that she didn't really have a choice about working for him. UGH.
TEAM LAUREN FOREVER!
