ब्यूटी एंड द बीस्ट

I really like the idea of a Beauty more determined and more ready to kick some b...in the quest for the truth. It is a different concept and a different Vincent. I truly don't get it how can one review a TV show after such a short while. Clearly some of us need to be patient. They will fall in love...I mean you have to be blind not to notice the chemistry ( she is obviously extremely attracted to him and vice versa)but where will be the fun if he would jump her bones in the first episodes? Also , the obvious adrenaline issue ( he turns when it kicks in) which was so carefully underlined by his friend -" Remember what happened the last time you made the play list?" - will most likely be in the way.

I mean, really you guys , give it a chance and stop expecting hot sex and blasting love from the first episodes. Next...you will say the kiss ( which has yet to happen) was lame. Does anybody remember the classic series? How long did it took for them to actually kiss...

I can't understand the negative reviews, I enjoyed the first episode and found it demanding of my attention (I watched on HULU while doing other tasks... or not doing them, because, as I said, it grabbed my attention). The acting in this show is quite a bit better than most CW offerings, and Jay Ryan is well cast as Vincent. IMHO, and Kristen Kreuk's personality aside (I don't see how it has anything to do with the quality of the show, as actors are notoriously self absorbed, so I think the hit piece published above is irrelevant and I'm surprised it was approved) I find Kreuk's performance to be just the right combination of tough exterior with fragile insides. So far as the story is concerned, it's off to a bit of a slow start, but it's not uncommon for a good or even great show to take some time to build it's world. This will take a bit of time as the writers seem very focused on establishing the two main characters and their relationship to each other. I was also impressed that the action sequences did not dominate the show. They were short, well done and added to the story instead of hiding any flaws. This one I'll be giving a few episodes to see how well it builds.

Beauty and the Beast is a show for romantic people at heart, developed beautifully with lots of sweet and bitter cheesiness on the way. It's a series where true love is shown, clenching your heart emotionally and making you dream, smile, laugh and shed tears.

• The chemistry and love between Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent (Jay Ryan) were amazingly beautiful and the strongest part of the show. I wouldn't be surprised if the two fell in love and were together for real and for at least some period of time.
• The storyline and plots were always interesting, with cheesiness along the way in a good way. Any weakness and plot holes were dissolved in their amazing journey of thrilling love, like sugar in hot water with a pinch of salt.
• The flow of the show was one filled with beauty, love, twists and emotions along the way both in happiness and sadness.
• The supporting cast and especially their friends and family (J.T., Tess, Heather...) delivered quite believable and lovely performances, contributing strongly to the emotional vibe of the series.

It was a fun and very enjoyable ride in its course of 4 seasons and one of the best performances of the very beautiful and sensitive Kristin Kreuk, which I'm sure was close to her heart.

Beauty and the Beast will always live in our heart, whether they are in the chic city of New York or in Paris, the city of love.

I wanted to start by saying, I've never watched a pilot more than once in the same week but with this show, I did. When the second episode aired, there were bits that were bothersome to me and I wasn't quite sure where it was going. However, after watching the third episode, I finally get to see where it's headed and I absolutely love it. I think everyone should give this series a chance and if you don't like it, that's fine but I can't say this show is similar to anything else on TV. I love how different it is and the entertainment factor is through the roof. The chemistry between characters is excellent and the acting is up to par. This is most definitely a show I'll be following!

This question doesn't seem to be answered in the series. Vincent just says he's been watching her for 9 years - after her mothers death, and after he killed Cat's mother's assassins, and he always wanted to meet her; no doubt why he came out when Cat went poking around his hideout. I usually do not watch this kind of show, and it's predictable to an extent, but I keep watching and wonder if the show will start filming in Paris and later move on to other parts of the world. I very much enjoyed the development of the story, especially the tension between Vince and Cat, and probably watched the ending of S1E14 about 3 times.
