There have been a lot of amazing things in the years I’ve been running The GATE, and some of my favourite moments were covering TV series, especially ones shot here in Toronto.

These pictures are worth more than a thousand words. I’m thriled to once again have photographer Rick McGinnis with us for The GATE’s Interview Lounge at TIFF 2017, Presented by Hamilton Watch, and this year he captured some truly stunning portraits of the filmmakers, actors, and talent who dropped in.
The fifth and final season of Showcase’s hit series Lost Girl kicked off on Sunday with Bo, played by Anna Silk, trying to find out what happened to her dear friend Kenzi (Ksenia Solo), after the season four finale where Kenzi sacrificed herself to close a portal to the afterlife.
Winter might be raging across Canada right now, but back when Lost Girl was filming their big fourth season in Toronto, the hottest days of summer had the city sweltering. The cast, for their part, were calm and cool on set as I sat down to chatted with them about the developments from season three, and where things were headed for the show’s new season that was still in the midst of production.
A power outage might stop some people from getting on with their day, but not the team behind Lost Girl, and certainly not during the show’s upcoming fourth season.
This is it! Lost Girl returns tonight on Showcase in Canada for its third season, and I’ve got the third and final part of The GATE’s on set interview with the cast ahead of the 8:00 PM (ET/PT) debut.
Lost Girl returns for its third season this Sunday, January 6, and during filming, The GATE was on set to interview the cast about what comes next for the supernatural drama.
Television’s favorite succubus and seductress returns–with all her Fae friends and enemies–on Sunday, January 6, as the hit Canadian series Lost Girl kicks off its third season on Showcase in Canada (with the show returning to SyFy in the U.S. on January 14).
This afternoon I had the good fortune of visiting the cast of Lost Girl for their last day of filming for season three (I’m the one on the far right, in case you’re wondering), and along with two other journalists, we had 30 minutes to interview the group. On top of that, we watched filming for one of the final scenes of the season, and toured the set which included a new space that we’re told has a particular role.
After fans had left the set of Lost Girl in Toronto on March 25, following filming of the special Lost Girl Pre-Show, a small group of media were treated to an interview with the cast of the show–plus executive producer Jay Firestone–to get more detail about the second season ahead of the finale.
