Status: Ended
Aired: 2010-15, 5 Seasons Totaling 77 Episodes
Network: Syfy (Showcase Channel in Canada)
Starring: Anna Silk, Kris Holden-Ried, Ksenia Solo, Zoie Palmer, Rick Howland, K. C. Collins
Series Website: www.syfy.com/lostgirl
Note: This series is a Canadian import and its success is more heavily determined by its performance in its home country.
Description: Lost Girl follows supernatural seductress Bo, a Succubus who feeds on the sexual energy (sometimes called “chi”) of humans. Growing up with human parents, Bo had no reason to believe she was anything other than the girl next door – until she drained her boyfriend to death in their first sexual encounter. After years of running, Bo discovered she was Fae, creatures of legend and folklore, who pass as humans while feeding off them secretly and in different ways, as they have for millennia. Relieved to find out that she is not alone, yet horrified, Bo decides to take the middle path between the humans and the Fae while embarking on a personal mission to unlock the secrets of her origin.
With the help of her sidekick, Kenzi, her grandfather, Trick and her on-again/off-again love interests, Dyson and Lauren, Bo’s journeys into the world of the Fae is met with danger at every turn. Syfy.com
Why Did It End? The fifth season of this show was announced as its last before it began as the cast and crew had apparently decided that five years and 77 episodes was enough to tell Bo’s story. Canadian series do not necessarily shoot for the extended runs that we see in the States, and this show has still achieved a decent enough episode count and will likely live on in syndication worldwide.

I honestly don’t feel like the ratings were fair. I am an avid fantasy watcher because I’m an artist so I just happen to enjoy it and I felt like for the first time there wasn’t a single character I could say performed better then anyone else. This show was the best show I’ve seen and waited for more for in a very long time!! I’m not only a part of the lgbt community but I’m also just very impressed with the lessons they hid in this the beauty of every character the time and effort and work put into it and I honestly saw so many more possibilities for this after they ended it. Kensi was my favorite hands down her humor her beauty and her talent was incredible I hate that she left!! However because she left that gave so so many more possibilities u guys left us at bow being at her grave after everything they went through after all she faught she could have def had so many more stories you guys had ALOT of imagination put into this and ultimately I just want to say incredible job to everyone on this project you inspired so many and have love from so many more for work already done. While cast beautiful and incredibly talented and thank you so much for the inclusion!! ✌️✌️
This is a good show I’ve just finished watching it you should make another season it was left that u could care it on
I love this show, I wish it didn’t have to go off. Please think about bringing this show back. I love Bo but I think the next level would be with her sister. You guys can bring this back. Please please please bring Lost girl back
I can’t believe this is the last season. I won’t!! Please bring it back, it’s so unfair. So many of my favorite shows are being cancelled. Pretty soon, I won’t have anything to watch. 🙁
Lost Girl is my favorite show. It always is comforting when I am sad, mad or happy. It is one of the only shows I can watch over and over again. How can you beat 2 bad-ass Chicks Fighting to survive, while fighting against rules that are unfair and sometimes unjust, with added mystical lore. It brings all your childhood fairy tales to life, with a twist. I am deeply sorry to hear that the show is being cancelled. A true loss. 5 Seasons is considered a success. My only question is WHY!!! What happened in season 5? You took a mid-season break that lasted forever, and the show did not get much promotion. Seems like Lost Girl got lost in the wind, my tears are being blown away as I type this. There will never be another Lost Girl for me!!
This show tanked after Ksenia Solo left it, plain and simple. She was the heart and soul of the show, bringing an actual work ethic and nuanced performance to the program, rather than standing around with her mouth open slightly in yoga pants and a bustier.
I love Lost Girls. The problem was that you couldn’t set the DVR to auto record because the dates were off and I missed a bunch of episodes! It’s almost as if this show was set up to fail. Sorry it’s been cancelled and I’m trying to catch up on missed episodes via Internet, but viewing isn’t as good as on my big screen and surround sound.
I like LG..I couldn’t wait for it to come back on..now your telling me this is the final season.. That sucks big time
Very disappointing….. One of my favorite shows. Great cast, great plots, love the many mystical beings, always leaves you wanting more. Sad to see it end so soon.
L G scheduled for cancellation ? Too bad, this series is well written with great production values and has characters that are very likable and sexy. I don’t think type casting will be an issue, the cast has shown both dramatic and comedic prowess. Really too bad. I’ll miss them. Looking forward to season five.
I am a big fan of Lost Girl and understand, much to the dismay of many fans its in its final season. That is bad enough. However, can we get a date please? Instead of “sometime in 2015” . I missed the entire 4th season because of that kind of wishy washy bull!
Season 5 is already airing in Canada, but Syfy has not indicated when they will add to their schedule yet. You can keep an eye on their page for the show: (http://www.syfy.com/lostgirl) for updates and we will post it here (https://www.cancelledscifi.com/sci-fi-tv-schedule/) as soon as we hear any scheduling announcements.
Had no idea this was cancelled.. 🙁 until I saw Zoe going to another show.. Sick of shows that are really good cancelled all too soon.. Why should fans even get involved in any show with always the threat of them being cancelled.. Some only last a few episodes.. I think reading is better than TV any day… !!!!
Lost Girl was not necessarily cancelled, they just decided to end it with its fifth season. It will go out on its own terms (rather than getting cancelled with loose ends) and non-U.S. shows do not necessarily target extended, 100+ episode runs.
My husband and I really love this show. We were hoping this would go on for at least 2 more seasons. We don’t agree with this season being the last.
Not very computer savey but not understanding why u would cancel a popular show and put some bullcrap in its place please bring back lostgirl now its been over 6 months and I’m not hearing anything about the show stop playing games yours truly unsatified lostgirl watcher.
Lost Girl is coming back for a fifth and final season. It has already started airing in Canada and will air on Syfy at some point in 2015.
This is my favorite show and now that it’s on show time I can’t watch it cuz I don’t have it. …. THIS IS so frustrating why can’t you bring back lost girl I just have to watch the last season I don’t want to wait till it comes out on DVD and spend all my money when I could have watched it for free on my favorite channel …. On another note what happened to “bitten” you guys are really starting to piss me off
