Lost Girl

Violence is one of the show's key components as both the protagonists and antagonists engage in varying forms of fantasy violence against one another and unsuspecting mortals. Though there is a heavy amount of hand to hand combat, there is little blood or explicit gore, though there is sex mixed in with violence.

The show's action often seems designed to guide the lead character into a variety of sexual situations that often also incorporate violence. Her mystical "power" involves sexual activity with men that is designed to rob them of their lives while satisfying her own hunger. While there is no full nudity, there are lots of lingering shots of bare backs, barely covered female chests, and passionate kissing and groping. The main character's sexual partners are both male and female.

Frequent use of unbleeped language such as "a--hole" and "s--t."

Characters drink socially and scenes are frequently inside bars and nightclubs. One sequence involves a male character drugging an unsuspecting woman in order to rape her.

Parents need to know that this dark sci-fi series is very heavy on sex and sexuality, including promiscuous partners (both same- and opposite-sex), sexual violence, and near nudity (naked backs, barely-covered fronts on women). Though the show's action takes place in the context of a fantasy universe, the sexual sequences are very heated and based in human reality. The fantasy violence is relatively mild, though frequent, and often focuses on using magical powers.
