I started watching because I've always been a beauty and the beast fan (Disney, mostly) and wanted to see how this new version would hold up.

I started watching because I saw the promos on the network. I also loved the original TV show, but that almost prevented me from watching. I was afraid they would screw it up. I've never been so happy to be so wrong.

I didn't necessarily think it would be bad.....but Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton were simply magical together on the original. I honestly didn't think they could capture that incredible connection again. But thankfully, Kristin and Jay breathe new life and magic into the characters and the love they share so I had nothing to worry about.

It was the network advertisment that got me interested. I'd never seen the original TV show nor smallville really. I loved the idea of the way they protrayed how the show would be and it is exactly as I'd hoped. So far anyway lol! I'm really hoping for a second season!!

This is a cool poll! I started watching because I love Kristin and follow all her projects. Coincidentally, Beauty and the Beast is like my favorite story ever, and I'll post about that sometime-it's meant so much in my life as a story, and the fact that KK was going to be the new Beauty like made my life.

This is an old poll but thought to bring it to the first page so the new ones can take part in it too. I'm still curious about the answers. Maybe I should add one more option: because of Yolie's slo mos...

I watch two series on TV regularly (including BATB) and before I gave the show a shot I had become so frustrated with the other one that I don't know if I will continue watching it. I'm a huge romantic, and one night in my frustration with the other series I just went online and started looking for shows that might interest me. When I was searching a list of show titles I saw it, and remembered the series from the 80's I had a friend whose mom was obsessed with that version. I watched the first 3 episodes online, and the streaming was bad. The videos would stop and freeze in the middle of scenes, and I realized how much this was pissing me off and how much BATB had already hooked me. lol I wanted to see what happened next, but not just that - I wanted to own the episodes rather than continue with the frustration of watching online with the video freezing. I was taken aback by the chemistry between the actors, and just the beauty of how the scenes are shot. The lighting and cinematography on BATB are really quite stunning. There are stand out scenes that are really well written eg "Human" scene from the pilot. That scene with Vincent by the window before he blacks out, and the art gallery scene in "Worthy. " It takes a lot for me to want to own a series, but I went and bought it on itunes. After a marathon of 4 days or so to get caught up. I wound up here on this forum (after looking for a place to discuss it) lol. I've completely fallen in love with the show. Suddenly, the other show that was frustrating me isn't even on my radar. But BATB is at the top of my watch list. Sigh.

I started to watch the show but cannot say I was hooked ... then something strange happened, whilst watching Bridesmaid up! The moment Jay walked from behind that white curtain into frame, I just died! From then on I downloaded and PVR all episode. Jay portray of Vincent takes my breathe away every time.
