Interesting "new" shows

Just caught the premieres of Lost Girl and The Fades. I know that the first one, strictly speaking, is not a new show, just new to the USA; IDK about the latter.

I have to say that each had a certain appeal. Lost Girl reminds me of shows like Dresden Files and Grim mixed with a bit of Jon Doe- the protagonist really doesn't know her true identity, and she's just found herself smack dab in the middle of a struggle between the two Fae courts of (I believe) Toronto.

Meanwhile, The Fades tells the story of a young man who looks like he's "The One" who is to stop the souls of the dead from coming after the living. The casting looks quirky and well done.

Lost Girl is filmed in Burlington/Hamilton area near Toronto so far as I can tell.

It doesn't explore the Light vs. Dark court aspect as well as I hoped (and I didn't hope for much truth to tell). It is an entertaining series, still.
 

OK, just saw the latest episode of The Fades...the opening was hilarious!


And the show keeps the ball rolling from there- the writers have a wicked sense of humor.
