Since we have BatB fans from all around the world even though it just started to be shown overseas - I was wondering why you guys started to watch the show? How did you hear about it? If not any of the answers above feel free to explain. I started to watch the show because of Kristin. Loved her in Smallville.

I was searching for a new TV series to love since two of my old favorites have ended and I need my TV series fix BATB just seemed most promising of all the new shows and I also really liked KK before. so I gave it a chance and fell in love by episode two - especially that last scene on the rooftop.

Loved Kristin on Smallville......have followed her career. Glad to see her back on the small screen every week! I was also a fan of the 80's BaTB version.

I have to be totally honest, I never really considered watching the show before it premiered. Just one day I was trying to muster through the season premiere of Supernatural using the CW app and they kept playing the BATB promo over and over again. Well after the 8th time seeing the promo (yeah the app loves to play ads more than a show) i gave up on the Supernatural episode and started watching the first two BATB episodes.
feel in love with the idea of the show and Jay Ryan and thats all lol

Well for me...it was kinda a combination of all of them. I was checking out the cw you tube site....actually I was intending to look for the new promo/clip for vampire diaries and I came across the batb promo! This was like back in May-ish, so I was thinking 'oh my god, it's going to be such a loooonng wait. A killer like this hiatus ' Anyway I already knew, I was going to like it. I recognised Kristin from Smallville and I looovveed that show (Tom Welling *droll* ). I was a clana fan. Then I saw a guy also and thought, he's pretty good looking like Tom Welling lol. I didn't know him as Jay Ryan at all. Odd thing is I actually did see him on neighbours once/twice but didn't make that connection lol but he is kinda more muscular now. Also I did see a few episodes of the old batb, so that made me curious about how this one was going to play out, especially since in the promo the beast didn't have fur..so I was like hmm..this sounds like a cool twist and better since it doesn't limit Vincent as much..So that's my story

I loved KK in Smallville, she played my absolute favorite character (frankly if she wasn't in the episode, I didn't bother to watch). So Kristin was what drew me to BatB.

I loved the series from the 80s but didn't even put it together that this was an updated version of that one. I started watching because of the promo on the CW, loved KK from Smallville and thought it looked like a show I would like. I happen to LOVE it now. I was into the first episode and got the names and realized it was an update so that didn't play into my giving it a try. I love how KK is much stronger in this show. She was great as Lana but I love her Catherine. Jay Ryan is fantastic as Vincent.

I got into BATB because of Kristin Kreuk! Love her! I'm been such a major fan of KK's since the beginning of Smallville (and even Edgemont) so that's over 10 years. I've watched all her other TV appearances like Chuck and all her movies. She's amazing and I'll continue to follow KK on all her roles!

I love everything that Kristin has done, but I really love this show a lot. I'm glad KK is the star of the show otherwise I would've never watched it to begin with and I never would've fallen in love with the show.

I found out about the show when I was googling when the Beauty and the Beast movie that Emma Watson was said to be in was going to show or if they started production. One of the links description had talked about a remake of the 80's tv show. I hadn't watch the episodes because it ended the same year I was born but I think there were reruns or something later on because I do remember the Beast's face. I saw the promo and saw that Kristin was in it and I had watched a bit of Smallville before and I loved her in it and also saw her in Street Fighter and Eurotrip. Anyways after seeing the promo, I was curious and then watched it once the pilot came out. Also the fact that I love the story Beauty and the Beast. . I love her in the show and also became a big fan of Jay. They look so awesome together! Now I am a passionate fan of the show and can't wait till the 24th. 14 more days!

I found out about the show about a week before it premiered, through an ad on Facebook (believe it or not lol). I love the Beauty and the Beast story in general, so the title, along with a picture of Kristin and Jay (I never really kept up with Smallville, but did watch some of it and I loved Clark and Lana, so I've admired Kristin ever since), caught my attention, and I thought I'd check it out... Only after the first ep did I realize that it was a remake of the 80's series. I'm glad Facebook ads actually did some good for once, though! :-D
