TV,eh? What's up in Canadian television

Anna Silk is the sexy succubus of Lost Girl

From Sheri Levine of Postmedia News:

  • She once was lost, but now she’s found
    She’s the Dexter of the supernatural world. Meet Bo, a succubus and TV’s newest supernatural anti-hero. This Lost Girl, however, is not your ordinary succubus. While a succubus feeds off human energy for survival, Bo only preys on the bad guys – also using her powers to help solve crimes. This, coupled with the fact she was raised by humans, puts her at odds with the life she was born into: the Fae (fairy) world.” Read more.

Fresh fare for fall

From Craig Takeuchi of the Georgia Straight:

  • Fall television boasts fresh Canadian fare
    And they’re off! The fall TV season is here, with some Canadian shows already out of the gates. There’s the new Vancouver-shot crime-thriller series Shattered (Global, Showcase), starring Callum Keith Rennie as a homicide detective with multiple-personality disorder. And the First Nations sketch-comedy show Caution: May Contain Nuts (APTN) is screwballing its way into its second season with a new mix of live and location shooting.” Read more.

Ksenia Solo of Lost Girl should be the lead

smallFrom Bill Harris of the Toronto Sun:

  • ‘Lost Girl’ based on real folklore
    “Ksenia Solo says one of the best things about Lost Girl is that it could be real. What? With all those creatures? Good lord, we hope not. To be fair, Solo merely is pointing out that Lost Girl – a new Canadian fantasy series that debuts Sunday, Sept. 12 on Showcase – has its roots in existing folklore.” Read more.
  • Anna Silk not ‘Lost’ in pilot
    “Make no mistake, Silk is hot. But she is a ‘woman’ in every positive way, not a ‘girl.’ And we’re not just being nit-picky about the title. Bo does not really come across as ‘lost,’ per se. She may have queries about her origin, but she is a powerful, protective, take-charge creature, right from the opening sequence.” Read more.
