Beauty and the Beast, the CW Network.
I've found out that the CW Network has a re-imagined version of Beauty and the Beast, the 1980s cult-favorite CBS series of the same name.
Lo & I used to talk about the gimmick of the lion-like Vincent reciting sensitive poetry to Catherine one minute, and the next minute tearing some bad guy to shreds for hurting her. :clapping:
While Catherine was a savvy assistant District attorney in New York City and Vincent was a a lion-like man who lived in a secret underground society led by the patriarch known as "Father" on the CBS version, on the CW version, Catherine is a homicide detective and Vincent is a man who turns into a beast-man when he becomes enraged (not unlike 'The Hulk").
From Wikipedia:
The project is described as "a modern-day romantic love story with a procedural twist." The show is the first project that new president Mark Pedowitz developed when he joined the network.
The network ordered a pilot of the series in January 2012. The pilot of the show was filmed in Canada from March 22 to April 2, 2012. It was picked up by The CW on May 11, 2012, and is scheduled to premiere this fall during the 2012–13 television season.
Kristin Kreuk was cast as the lead role of Catherine Chandler (Beauty) on February 16, 2012, and Jay Ryan was cast in the role of Vincent Koslow (Beast) on March 2, 2012.
I'll watch the first few shows for Kristin Kreuk's sake, and see if the plot can hold me. If the show is a dog, it'll disappear fast.
On the other hand, the CW has had success with their odd concept supernatural TV series.
