LOST GIRL: The Fangirling
So, it took me a little over an hour to go from reading ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
marina's post about Lost Girl, to watching the first episode, to full-on fangirling. I am in love with this show. I don't care that it has the worst name ever*, that the SFX are hilarious and the puns make my brain leak out of my ears. It stars a hot, leather-clad, canonically bi succubus with an adorable sidekick. She has a love triangle with a man and a woman. There is a siren, who's a cop yes, he's a police siren. There are ~Fae~ of many different kinds! There could be mermaids, or unicorns. I mean, no, but a girl can dream. And by dream, I mean write fic.
This show is everything I wanted that one book to be, but it wasn't. It's a show about a succubus where she's being sexy, and likes sex a lot. It has the added bonus of defanging the whole theological devil angle and just going with her being (in so many words) a sex-vampire, which neatly sidesteps much of the skeeviness. It has an adorable sidekick, a hot lady doctor who kisses ladies FOR SCIENCE! and everybody wears black all. the. time. The crack. It is DELICIOUS. Now pardon me, because I think my episode loaded.
* Not even remotely. Look, they were gonna make a Sex and the City-with-werewolves show and call it ~Bitches~. I mean.
