What really surprised me was Hades played by Eric Roberts. I relished seeing her as the former Valkyrie teacher of Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten). She is pretty much shown as her age: wrinkled, but bright aged, but clear eyed mature, but mischievous. Unlike her appearance in the most recent iteration of "Terminator," there is no CGI here. He is clearly one and not the other! Which brings us the Linda Hamilton. Oh, I don't want to forget Hephaestus-the ugliest of the gods and the blacksmith. And then, of course, in the last season, we encounter Hades, Persephone, Hera, and Zeus herself (with a great nod to the post-patriarchal writers). We already now about shape-shifters (remember "True Blood"?) Sirens.Mermaids. Mesmer is an allusion to Franz Mesmer, the "inventor" of hypnotism. Many of the fae references are simple to Google and find out the story behind them. Fantasy is the second point for recommendation to you.
If nothing else, these character move back and forth with the tongue in cheek humor and with the fluidity of there gender performance with such elan. There are traditional stand-ins: Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried) who is a male love interest and Lauren (Zoie Palmer) the female love interest-both for our heroine: Bo (Anna Silk). We have kooky character Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) who is a simply joy to watch. And Linda Hamilton: well, read on to see this point.

So why do I mention Linda Hamilton in my title, as well as "fun" and "fantasy"? Well all three are true: this series is lots of fun from the plot evolution and characters to the witty writing it also plays a great deal with fantasy-from fae lore to Greek gods. I'm not baiting Linda Hamilton DOES do several guest appearances in "Lost Girl" and she never once makes a reference to "Terminator" (unlike her guest shots in another fun series, "Chuck"-see my review elsewhere of this one).
OK: I might have caught you attention with "Linda Hamilton" in the title, particularly now that the last reboot of "Terminator" is making its rounds in theaters.
