I absolutely love this show and I didn't see a thread for it so I started one. I'd like to hear other people's opinions on it? Who are your favorite characters? What do you like best about the show? What did you think of the latest episode?

My favorite characters are all of the main ones. My favorite part of the show is the relationship between Katherine and Vincent. I can't remember what I thought of the last episode but I know I can't wait for the next one. Sadly I'll have to.

Dude, I can only say that actually being there and watching that lady stand up and say,"Im an original beastie...44 AND NO MORE!" before she asked GRRM a question was the absolute best thing of that whole con.

I am a HUGE fan of this show. Although the series was done the minute Linda Hamilton bailed, I had to admire the way the writers used her departure to take the show in a new direction. It's not often that a television series is willing to overturn the table, but B&B did. I kinda liked the third season, myself.

My favorite character might be Jamie, because she uses a crossbow.

Is the OP talking about the old show or the new one with Kristin Kreuk?

The new one, I would imagine.

I'll check out some episodes of this new show.

I just caught up with this show. Thanks for making a thread. I probably wouldn't have been curious enough to watch it otherwise.
I really do prefer how they handle the beast aspect of the story. For me there has always been the ick factor with the B&B story. I couldn't relate to falling for something more animal than human.. At least in appearance.
But well... Vincent is certainly easy on the eyes - to say the least. And I don't think they compromise the issues of forming a relationship with a beast/human. If anything I think they have put up more barriers because of his condition. Certainly more has been put on the line than say the Dark Angel story.

Evan Marks I pegged as the "Gaston" type character so I didn't expect to empathise with him and begin to be apprehensive of - yet still enjoy his character and role in the story.

I have some small (teeny really) gripes with Cat's ability to fight. It feels to me to be slightly exaggerated. Sure she has been trained. Out side of her job and a jogging scene you don't see her committing to keeping her fighting skills honed though. And yes she does end up getting her butt kicked and taken down a bit. That's why I'm not calling OP'ed BS.
It is fiction after all so I'm not going to stop watching because of something so small.
Otherwise Kristin Kreuk is pretty much perfect for that role. Well in my opinion she owns it. Thought she was alright as Lana Lang. Like her much better as Catherine Chandler.

And whoa cliff hanger mid season finale. Now I'm forced to wait - for another 20 days? - to find out what happens
Oh the agony

So do we think that Evan is trying to protect his interests.. As far as the research he is now doing.
Because he did see him.. At least that was the impression I got.
Otherwise why be dismissive and cagey.
