SYFY WILL PREMIERE SUPERNATURAL DRAMA SERIES "LOST GIRL" ON MONDAY JANUARY 16 AT 10PM
ORLANDO - October 10, 2011 - Syfy will premiere the hit Canadian supernatural drama Lost Girl on Monday, January 16 at 10PM (ET/PT). Syfy acquired both seasons (26 episodes) of the series from Prodigy Pictures in May.
Lost Girl stars supernatural seductress Bo (played by Anna Silk/The Ghost Whisperer), a Succubus (a powerful female entity in folklore) who feeds off sexual energy. Raised by human parents, Bo had no reason to believe she was anything other than the girl next door -- until she "drained" her first boyfriend to death.
Bo discovers she is one of the Fae, creatures of legend and folklore, who pass as humans while feeding off them in secret, as they have for millennia. She is faced with choosing an allegiance between the Dark or Light Fae clans. Bo decides to take the middle path between humans and the Fae while embarking on a personal mission to unlock the secrets of her origin, protecting humans along the way.
Lost Girl co-stars Kris Holden-Ried as Dyson, a shape-shifting Fae, homicide detective and Bo's love interest; Ksenia Solo as Kenzi, Bo's human confidante and street-smart survivor, Zoie Palmer as Lauren, a human doctor who competes for Bo's heart; Rick Howland as Trick, the mysterious owner and bartender at The Dal Riata tavern, with a secretive past that is yet to be unlocked, and K.C. Collins as Hale, a handsome male "Siren" who is the eternal bachelor, ultimate wingman and Dyson's partner on the force.
Notable guest stars include Emmanuelle Vaugier as "The Morrigan," the leader of the Dark Fae.
This series is developed and produced by Prodigy Pictures, in association with Shaw Media and Showcase.
