One Lost Time

Season finale says what? No, seriously, what the fuck is happening and how will it all end? Mad scientists! Speciesist leaders! Human terrorists! Crazy mamas! And we haven’t even begun to discuss the Big Lesbian Feelings that were brought up by Tamsin slipping into Bo’s bath and Lauren realizing she’s unwittingly poisoned her (maybe) ex’s ex. Damn, “Lost Girl” – you so crazy. And you haven’t even seen the Canadian preview yet. It’s even more nutty/nail-bitey/lady-fighty.

I don’t know about you, but I think this season has been pretty darn cohesive and pretty freaking exciting. Sure there was the bait-and-switch anti-climax of the Yawning Dawning. But now things are getting, well, good. Sure, it’s a bit of a kitchen sink hodge podge of plot points. Dr. Taft’s megalomania. The Morrigan’s species supremacy. Humans declared terrorists. Bo on the verge of being imprisoned. Tamsin wounded and unconscious. Lauren and Dyson encased in glass. And, oh yeah, Aife is back. p.s. I had to totally look up the actress to make sure the Aife we saw this week was the same Aife we saw in the first season. And, yes, it’s the same actress, Inga Cadranel. She just looks wayyyy different without her makeup.) And we haven’t even started on the whole Wanderer/probably Bo’s dad/the fire-breathing Pegasus thing.

The good news, “Lost Girl” has a whole fourth season to get into/wrap up any loose ends. The bad news, we’ll have to wait all damn summer and fall until we get to see that happen next.

My three biggest hopes for the finale and next season:

1. That Lauren does not go evil. We need more of this in the fourth season.

2. That Tamsin does not die. We need more of this girl in the fourth season.

3. That Vex returns. We need more of this dynamic duo in the fourth season.

As excited as I am to see how this whole crazy enchilada plays out, I’m also sad it’s almost over for another season. But don’t worry, we’ll always have the video of Anna Silk as the world’s most emotionally unstable flight attendant to tide us over. Now that is what I call a tension breaker.

p.s. If you need to catch up, you can read the recap of this week’s episode on AfterEllen.

p.p.S. Despite Syfy’s attempt to ruin my life and delay the airing of the finale until a week after Showcase, I will be posting the recap next Tuesday. So those who want to remain spoiler free until it airs in the U.S. just bookmark it and come back in seven days.

UPDATE: OMG, Lost Girl totally listened and answer my No. 3 request! Thanks, Aussie promo for spilling the beans!
