On Thursdays this Fall the CW network will unleash one of it's best comedies in years! Check out the hilarious extended trailer for their new show
Beauty & The Beast. The show has made the marvelous decision to make their Beast not look like a beast. Clearly the Disney and Ron Perlman versions of the tale got it completely wrong. On top of that they have an adorable actress that is 5 foot 3 inches small kicking the ever living snot out of full grown thugs. Awesome! I'm telling you CW hasn't had a comedy this good since
Aliens in America! I can't understand why CW consistently finishes in sixth place in total viewers? It's a mystery!
If I was a handsome guy/beast with a gnarly scar like that I wouldn't go out in public either. A guy like that certainly can't compete with the John Candy's of the world. Stay at home scarface! Yeah sure I guess a girl could put her hand over that scar, or use makeup to cover it up, but wouldn't it be easier dating an ugly guy with no scar than this [frick]ing freak?
Detective Catherine Chandler is a smart, no-nonsense homicide detective. When she was a teenager, Catherine witnessed the murder of her mother at the hands of two gunmen. Catherine would have been killed too, but someone – or something – saved her. No one has ever believed her, but she knows it wasn't an animal that attacked the assassins…it was human. Years have passed, and Catherine is a strong, confident, capable police officer, working alongside her equally talented partner, Tess. While investigating a murder, Catherine discovers a clue that leads her to a handsome doctor named Vincent Keller, who was reportedly killed by enemy fire while serving in Afghanistan in 2002. Catherine learns that Vincent is actually still alive and that it was he who saved her many years before. For mysterious reasons that have forced him to live outside of traditional society, Vincent has been in hiding for the past 10 years to guard his secret – when he is enraged, he becomes a terrifying beast, unable to control his super-strength and heightened senses. Catherine agrees to protect his identity in return for any insight he may have into her mother's murder. Thus begins a complex relationship between Catherine and Vincent, who are powerfully drawn to each other yet understand that their connection is extremely dangerous for both of them.
The series stars Kristin Kreuk ("Smallville," "Chuck") as Catherine, Jay Ryan ("Terra Nova") as Vincent, Max Brown ("The Tudors," "MI-5") as Evan, Nina Lisandrello ("Nurse Jackie") as Tess, Nicole Gale Anderson ("Make It or Break It") as Heather, Austin Basis ("Life Unexpected") as J.T., and Brian White ("The Shield," "The Cabin in the Woods") as Joe.
