SHOWCASE ANNOUNCES THE EPIC FINAL SEASON OF LOST GIRL
TORONTO, August 25, 2014 - Today, Showcase revealed that the previously announced fifth season of Lost Girl will wrap up the fan-favourite series. In a message to the show's loyal "Fae"-natics, Lost Girl star Anna Silk revealed that Showcase supersized the original 13-episode order to 16 final episodes bringing the series to a thrilling conclusion. The season is split into two heart-stopping parts, with the first eight episodes airing Sundays at 9pm ET/PT on Showcase, beginning December 7.
"The massive popularity of Lost Girl is a testament to the inventive and hard-working team at Prodigy Pictures, the magnetic and talented cast and the most devoted and passionate fan base in Canadian television," said Barbara Williams, Senior Vice President, Content, Shaw Media. "We're so proud that Showcase has been the home to this landmark series and we look forward to sharing these final 16 episodes with the show's fans."
"It's been an absolute honour playing Bo, and I'm looking forward to seeing where her personal journey leads her this season," said Lost Girl star Anna Silk.
"Lost Girl has been an incredible ride. We're so proud to have delivered a show with the groundbreaking message that you can live the life you choose," said Executive Producer Jay Firestone.
Lost Girl follows supernatural seductress Bo (Silk), a tough yet loveable Succubus who feeds off sexual energy. Since realizing she is part of the Fae, creatures of legend and folklore who live among humans, Bo has resisted choosing an allegiance to either the Dark or Light Fae clans. Instead, she has forged her own path between the human and Fae worlds, while embarking on a mission to unlock the secrets of her origin.
In the blow-out final season, Bo goes to hell and back to try to save the people she loves, triggering an explosive chain of events that play out over the exhilarating final episodes.
Lost Girl was developed by Prodigy Pictures, in association with Shaw Media and Showcase. Executive Producers are Jay Firestone, Vanessa Piazza and Michael Grassi.
Lost Girl is produced with the participation of the Canadian Media Fund created by the Government of Canada and the Canadian cable industry, and with the assistance of the Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit and the Ontario Film and Television Tax Credit Program.

I love how they consider adding three extra episodes super-sized. LOL. I'm grateful for them but still.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope the divide between Light and Dark Fae is extinguished so they can live in harmony and not have to worry anymore.
Can't wait for this season!
I have to catch up with this but I'm super glad to know that they are getting this much of an advance to know it's their final season. Should be great stuff.
ReplyDeleteGreat!!! Now Showcase pretty please announce the renewal of Continuum!!!
ReplyDeleteNO NO NO NOOO I DONT WANT IT TO END 5 IS NOT ENOUGH
ReplyDeleteIf it's without Ksenia Solo it will be a disappointment. I hope they give it a good ending.
ReplyDeleteApparently Canadians aren't much risk takers when comes to making shows beyond season 5 with an except of Rookie Blue which i suspect next yr is the final yr for them as well.
ReplyDeleteI stopped watching Lost Girl in the middle of the AWFUL season 4..The show got really boring to me..and the writing became so bad..all over the place!! S1 and S3 were very good (especially S3), but yeah..i'm not gonna miss it..the show became a train wreck in S4. But the good days will remain in my memory anyways.
ReplyDeleteThank God.
