  1. I've been watching the Canadian version since the start. Certain things get edited out in the Syfy version.

  2. I have never watched the American Version. So I can not tell.

  3. Can we please not start the unfounded Syfy editing agenda BS again? Maybe Prodigy will only make the one 42-minute episode this year and everyone can just stop.

  4. Unfounded? They factually edited stuff out. It was said that they edited stuff out to conform the the US air times since they're not the same. That's probably true. But the fact that they edited stuff out is not unfounded.

  5. "Unfounded" is a modifier of the noun "agenda." The supposed "agenda" in the editing is what is unfounded not the fact that they cut for time. And you didn't say it was cut for time in your post you insinuated the "certain things" were intentionally removed. However, blaming Syfy for the editing is also unfounded as Firestone has said time and time again it is decided and cut on their end.

  6. Their reasons for doing the cuts aren't nearly as important as the fact that they did bad cuts. I mean come on, more than a few of those cut scenes were in areas that would set people off. Any idiot who can rub two brain cells together can guess that cutting an intimate scene between Bo and Lauren would be a bad idea. But they did it!

    And it's perfectly logical that the fans jumped to the conclusion they did. Don't get me wrong, I love my country, but the US is an enormous hypocrite when it comes to showing homosexuality in TV shows.

  7. Well, thanks for proving me right that your subtext isn't about time edits but about some ridiculous anti-doccubus agenda that you suppose Syfy and the US have. And on a video that has 2!!! naked girl-on-girl scenes in it, no less. That makes total sense. They hate it so much they use it to sell the show.

    1) Again--"They" is Jay Firestone and in-house Lost Girl editors.

    2) There was no intimate scene, they removed 8 seconds of argument with Lachlan. Yes, Lauren touched Bo--guess what she still touched Bo in the final shot.

    3) Everyone's screen time is important to storytelling not just Lauren's. Lauren lost a lot less (and frankly gained a good bit from the edits) than Hale or Kenzi or Trick or Dyson.

    4) I don't care about your LGBT agenda--I have personal causes, I don't need yours. I think that US TV is showing a number of positive homosexual relationships on television and I'm not married to the necessity of Lost Girl carrying a torch for any group as much as I'm interested in good storytelling. I am vastly more bothered about cuts that changed the story (can you even remember those?) than I am about losing some inconsequential second of Lauren touching Bo's arm but still getting the point across. Ignoring the fact that female-female relationships have a titillation aspect to them that might off-balance their presentation with similar male-male relationships is simply putting on blinders. Just listen to Jay Firestone's sleazy inner 12-year-old boy say, "She's good, she's bad, she's bi."


    5) This entire problem has been addressed, but at no point has anyone who was up in arms after 2.03 come back and said, "hey, know what, I was wrong." And wrong you were. There was no pattern, doccubus didn't lose anything else, and all the intimate parts were kept and promoted. But instead you keep attacking a network and viewership or a supposed slight that has no foundation.

  8. You know what, I typed up an eight paragraph response, read it over, and decided that it could be shortened considerably. My original opinion was a simple one. It was brief for a very good reason because I didn't think I'd need to explain myself beyond that.

    The first response you made, although it wasn't a direct reply, was worded to provoke a response. I wasn't "starting" anything, but you seemed to think that I was. I said that I prefer the Canadian version and gave a reason why. THAT'S IT! It sure as hell didn't need the type of response you had for it. It was a non-issue and you MADE it an issue.

    And while I will admit that I read your comment wrong about the whole unfounded thing, it makes no logical sense to go from THAT and start your absolutely pointless tirade. You completely overblew this from...nothing!

    And I don't know how many times I have to make this clear: Don't make assumptions about me. If ever there was a guidebook to having an intelligent conversation with me, not making assumptions about how I think would be right at the top of that. Calling anything I said an attack on Syfy and especially its viewership, that one is especially idiotic, is utterly ridiculous.

    Does ANYONE know how to express a difference of opinion without grand leaps of stupid assumptions anymore?

  9. wow ok yea who cares, you can just buy the Canada version or the us version, then it solves everything .other then fighting about pointless stuff, we all know every show will have cuts some worst then others we get over it or read the books.
