Beauty and the Beast 1x9

[starrylizard]

Arrrgh, cliffhanger of evil! I am literally yelling at the telly right now! I cannot wait until January to resolve that one. It's gonna kill me! *angst face* This show has really hooked me in, in that guilty pleasure kinda way. I've gone all Vincent/Catherine. O_O

Am I alone in my crazy?

(And I need to make some icons again I think.)

No, you're not alone in this. I'm all Vincent/Catherine too. Plus, bonus Outerbridge, at least in three of the episodes. Still kinda hoping Silverfox didn't actually die. But, yes, quite surprisingly I'm actually liking the show way better than I thought I would. Then again, I've always had a thing for angsty UST.

Yes, Outerbridge! I was terribly sorry they got rid of such a great baddie so soon. Hopefully he reappears at some point, but it didn't look likely.

Do you think they're going to share Vincent's existence with Evan and Catherine's sister?

I never thought this was a show I'd get into. It's definitely a guilty pleasure now! Nice to know I'm not alone!

Oooh, lovely icon! I love that scene. Sadly, LJ killed all my Outerbridgy icons, I really should go and reactivate them.

In terms of killing off the baddie, I think it has less to do with his character on the show, but more with shooting schedules. He's a recurring character on Nikita as well, and apparently BatB wanted him in a recurring role as well, but the Nikita guys didn't want to let him go. Looks like they couldn't both have him (probably because the schedules would overlap), so I have a feeling they wrote him out of BatB like that. Or at least had his character disappear for a while. I mean, Muirfield is gonna come back into the picture at some point, right?

As for how they would explain if Silverfox survived, that beats me. Vincent said he'd take care of the clean-up. He'd have checked if these folks were still alive. And I kinda doubt he'd just have let Silverfox go. Then again, the non-beastly version of Vincent wouldn't kill someone in cold blood. Ah well, I guess we'll see. Hope the show gets a second season. Thankfully, they already got a full first one (22 episodes).

As for sharing Vincent's identity with her sis and Evan... good question. It's not impossible that Vincent is just gonna leave Catherine there and run, once he realizes who's in the approaching car. But I actually quite like the idea of some of her friends being in on the secret. It's gonna wear her down, having to keep it all to herself. And as much as I adore JT, he's not exactly the most understanding guy.

You know, I only watched the pilot because I knew Outerbridge was going to be in it. And quite surprisingly, I fell for it right away. Didn't expect that either. Now it's one of the few shows where I can't wait to see the next episode. Which, coincidentally, airs on my birthday in January. Nice present!
