** The show features many scenes with full and partial nudity (for both sexes) as well as outright sex scenes.
** Even when fully dressed, many of the women, show a lot of cleavage (sometimes of the NavelDeepNeckline kind). Bo almost always dresses this way.
** There is so much focus on Bo's cleavage that fans have coined a special term for it: "Boobs O'Clock".
** While Kenzi usually doesn't show much skin, she often wears corsets as outerwear.

Added DiffLines:

*ThisIsMyHuman: Various fae are shown essentially declaring humans to be their property; Lauren is essentially a slave to the Ash, and Bo had to “officially” claim Kenzi as hers to protect Kenzi from being preyed on by other fae (even if Bo and her fae allies all accept that Kenzi is Bo’s friend rather than her property). Some fae appear to just employ humans in a more formal manner, such as the Morrigan running a talent agency where she feeds on some of her clients but none of them appear to know what she is. One episode saw a case where a human father had adopted a young fae where his son didn’t know what he was; once the two came in contact with wider Fae culture, Dyson convinced Lachlan to allow the boy to remain with his human father.

* SeriesContinuityError: The series has always been kind of loose with continuity, but it gets REALLY bad in Season 4 to the point it blatantly contradicts itself from episode to episode. Season 5 tries to clear this up with mixed results. Pretty much anything to do with The Wanderer falls under this trope.

If the "Damsel in distress" trope is not in effect and the girls escape on their own then "Damsel Out of Distress" would be more appropriate.


* DamselInDistress: Nope nope nope. None of these ladies are havin' any of that. While all the women on the show have been put in cages at some time or another, none of them have just put up with it and waited to be rescued. Even Kenzi, the most powerless of the bunch, works her ass off to save herself (though she's glad to get help when it shows up).

** Averted. It's not explicitly stated that the series takes place in Toronto (where it is filmed), but there are a few hints (or at least those hints are relegated to FreezeFrameBonus status). Check the currency and the flag in the trailer park in the second episode…

** Averted. It's not explicitly stated The show makes absolutely no effort to hide the fact that the series takes place it is filmed in Toronto (where (the accents, all those shots of the ''very distinctive'' TTC streetcars, and a few incidental glimpses of the CN Tower being dead giveaways), but this, or even which country or province the city is in, is never made explicit.
** In one episode Bo makes multiple visits to a woman on death row. The first time she goes,
it is filmed), implied that she crosses the border (there is no death penalty in Canada). Afterwards she is back home but there are then she visits the prisoner twice more on the same day, which would make for a few hints (or at least those hints are relegated lot of commuting since it is about a 2 hour drive to FreezeFrameBonus status). the nearest border crossing from Toronto.

** The UsefulNotes/CanadianAccents are a bit of a giveaway.
*** In particular, they pronounce "Lich" to sound like "lick" instead of like "Rich," even going as far as having Kenzi mistake the word for "lick" when she first hears it.
** The CN Tower is clearly visible in several shots.
