YMMV: Lost Girl
  • Angst? What Angst?: Played with for Lauren in Season 2. After Nadia dies (in Lauren's arms no less, Lauren spends the next episode going through a realistic process of grief. While it is gone by the next episode, this can be justified by how reserved Lauren typically is, which is implied to be the only way she survived the Fae world.
    • Ultimately averted in Season 3, Lauren finally breaks down and admits how much the last years have affected her.
  • Anguished Declaration of Love: The bathtub scene in 3x12 with Tamsin talking to Bo could arguably count as this.
  • Complete Monster: Vex.
  • Designated Protagonist Syndrome: Bo is sadly a rather plain main character mixed in with a large group of colorful supportive characters.
  • Ensemble Darkhorse: Kenzi.
  • Evil Is Sexy: The Morrigan.
  • Hell Is That Noise: The Banshee's wail.
  • Fan Preferred Couple: Bo/Lauren.
    • Dyson/Kenzi is popular as well.
  • Idiosyncratic Ship Naming: Bo/Lauren=Doccubus. So called because Lauren is a doctor and Bo is a succubus.
    • And Valkubus is Valkyrie (Tamsin) and Succubus (Bo).
  • Ship Tease: Kenzi and Hale.
  • They Just Didn't Care: Tamsin mispronounces the worth "Kitsune" every time she says it by dropping the last syllable. Protip: The E is not silent.
    • Though in fairness, she's also one of the only people who pronounces the "Dal" in "Dal Riata" correctly.
  • Woobie: Bo has accidentally killed a lot of people, a lot of whom were her lovers, Lauren has been manipulated into being a slave to people who hate humans twice and stayed with her coma-girlfriend for five years only for her to die violently before her eyes straight after she woke up, and her treatment took a turn for the worse under Lachlan, and Kenzi's stepfather was apparently so bad that she was nearly willing to risk her worst fear ( Baba Yaga) to try and rid herself of him and she ended up on the streets from a young age. Honestly, though, no one in the gang's life seems to have been a bed of roses.
    • Iron Woobie: Since they all keep going. Bo says Lauren is the strongest person she's ever met. Dyson, meanwhile, calls Kenzie the strongest person.
  • X Meets Y: For the Urban Fantasy and the plentiful Fanservice, the show has been described as "Supernatural's Distaff Counterpart".
