Personally I expected tthis with all the reviews and all before the episode aired...I have to be honest and say I hoped for better numbers at least a 0.4 like the Carrie Diaries got...
The only hope is that with this arc VinCat can recover and bringing in Elizabeth Romn and Scott who have fan followings from other shows it could boost ratings...and and gain they bought Sendhil in for heroes and covert affairs fans and it did nothing for ratings... Sorry to say the Alex arc was the arc that bought more viewers in aside from the pilot episode and a few from the beginning of season 1.

It rubbed the wrong way the memory wipe.lots of beast missions and the distance between VinCat..We were left with many questions but still no answers..Daddy Chandler...How was it while V was in M hands again?? They left a lot of things up in the air...

I'd say a part Sleepy Hollow and the Voice and shows like those. .. but even when Sleepy Hollow went on a short hiatus BATB numbers stayed the same.

I'd say a part Sleepy Hollow and the Voice and shows like those. .. but even when Sleepy Hollow went on a short hiatus BATB numbers stayed the same. yes i agree, regardless of sleepy hollow hiatus and other things ratings have been the same more or less since the first episode of season 2. my view is that the extra nielsen viewers watching last year watched last year when they felt like it (hence the numbers last fluctuated quite abit). they were not huge fans or necessarily regular viewers but there was nothing better for them on thursday or they watched TVD and then said ok let me watch BATB as well. This year they did not bother tuning in cause they forgot about bATB (lack of promo and they were not huge fans anyway) or because there are better options for them on mondays. the fact that our numbers stay very steady this year at 0.3. and approximately 0.8 million makes me think that the people who watch really watch regularly the other problem we have is that it is difficult to get new viewers at this stage cause a) lack of promo so people dont even know about it b) many people would not tune in to watch a show mid way through a season. I was hoping maybe PCAs would mean some people would hear about the show but it wasnt even mentioned so..

PCA don't do anything...just let's TPTB that the fans they have are loyal. IMO money talks ..it's the bottom line.

But honestly I'm telling it how it is...Unlike you though I still watch the show and I'm interested in knowing where it's going. ..Now that I like all the changes? No but some stuff I like...The person that watched the show last year at least a few times would be totally confused if they tuned in now.. I always said change was good but changing that which worked to begin with was a bad move...The way they went about things rubbed many like you to dislike the show...I understand all your points..I feel frustration sometimes too especially with the uncertainty of season 3.

Honestly, I think the lack of viewers has little or nothing to do with the current Beauty and the Beast story line. I think most of it has to do with the lack of promotion from the CW in general. The CW has screwed this show over since they announced that it has been renewed for a second season. They removed Beauty and the Beast from the Thursday time slot with the Vampire Diaries as a lead in to Mondays at 9:00 pm with which is one of, if not the most competitive time slots that there are. There is Sleepy Hollow and Mike and Molly which have huge fan bases. Because Sleepy Hollow is a freshman show, and I doubt the CW though it would have as much success as it does, I will give them a pass for placing it in the Monday 9:00 pm time slot. However, the fact that the CW did not change the time slot from Monday's and have disregarded the ratings makes me question them. Prior to Beauty and the Beast episode one of the second season, I saw little or no promotion for the show. The most that I saw for BATB was a little banner at the bottom of my television screen whilst I was watching Americas Next Top Model. (They were really trying hard to advertise the show right?) It's not like the premiere of season two got over 1 million viewers then we adjusted down to 0.8 million viewers, resulting from a lack of interest from viewers, we started out of the gate with a lack of viewers. This tells me that it was because of a lack of promotion. I asked many of my friends in college if they watched the show, half of them didn't even know it existed and the other half didn't even know it came back for the second season. That's just disgraceful. The CW never wanted to pick up Beauty and the Beast for a second season. The only wanted to pacify us loyal and hardworking fans. The CW had no intention for BATB to go past a second season and as much as it may hurt to say this, but they got their wish. Beasties can only do so much. It ultimately up to the network to promote the show and try to attract viewers. They have failed us. They CW is known for picking up shows, giving them 1-2 seasons, and dumping them. (And they wonder why they have such low ratings as a network). Also why would they pair BATB with a non-sci/fi show that had mediocre viewership? Like I said the CW has no intention of saving our show.
