Good news for fans of the Fae: The Huffington Post has exclusively learned that Syfy has renewed "Lost Girl" for a third season, which will arrive on the network in January 2013.
Canadian fans may already be aware that the frisky drama, which chronicles life in an underground community called the Fae, had been renewed north of the border several months ago, but the Syfy renewal means that American "Lost Girl" fans won't be left behind as the 13-episode third season unfolds.
The 22-episode second season of "Lost Girl," which stars Anna Silk as a succubus named Bo, is currently airing on Syfy on Mondays, but as of July 20, the supernatural drama is moving to Fridays at 10 p.m. ET.
Season 3 will feature a new face: Rachel Skarsten. The actress has appeared in "The Vow" and "Flashpoint," and will recur as Tamsin, a thrill-seeking Fae who, according to the network, "ruffles many feathers." (Don't they mean faethers?). Cast members Silk, Kris Holden-Ried (a cop/shifter named Dyson), Ksenia Solo (Bo's sidekick, Kenzi), Zoie Palmer (a human doctor named Lauren who is, along with Dyson, one of Bo's love interests), Rick Howland (Fae bar owner Trick) and K.C. Collins (Fae cop Hale) will return for Season 3. Emmanuelle Vaugier will recur once again as the Dark Fae leader named the Morrigan.
I've written here and here about how much I enjoy this escapist yet emotionally involving show, so I couldn't be happier to hear that there are lots of Bo adventures to come.
Michelle Lovretta, the creator of "Lost Girl," was understandably excited about the U.S. renewal news. "It goes without saying that I'm thrilled that Syfy is bringing us back for a third season, just as I was thrilled when [Canadian network] Showcase greenlit that season for production a few months ago," Lovretta told HuffPost TV in an email interview. "Honestly, these characters are so intensely real to me that when the show eventually concludes, I know I'm going to miss them in an ugly-cry, rocking-in-the-bathtub sort of way, so every season order we get is a gift to my mental health." Lovretta added that she will be writing "one or two" episodes in the third season, including Episode 310, which she called "scary and heartbreaky."
