That is so true. When I saw the advert for BATB the first time around I recorded it to give it a go more out of curiosity rather than anything else because I had read bad reviews and was not expecting much. I think a few minutes into the pilot I recognised Kristin from smallville and thought it could be good. Anyway it turned out that I liked the pilot and decided to continue watching and before I knew it l was searching the Internet for news on BATB and watching clips. I learned 2 things from this. Promotion makes a difference because that's how I became aware of the show & 2 . Critics don't always know what will appeal to viewers because some of the shows that are critically acclaimed are not that interesting to me personally and all the critics do at the end of the day is to disadvantage some shows right from the start because they would have been painted in bad light and if we are being honest the majority of people are easily influenced by the popular opinion.
yes and critics are people too so they are influenced by each other. one bad review leads to another and vice versa..
Wahhhh! Why don't the critics listen to us?
If only they could get their act together...it would be so much easier for Beasties!
So I watched the commercial again several times and I realize it's been truncated by 10 seconds compared to the video on the internet. They eliminated two scenes with Catherine. The one where she says "it's almost to good to be true" and "we're in this together for a reason, not just for love."
...waiting for our buddy dan to chime in now about how this is further proof the show is all about you know who. LOL.
What so funny that people keep Lol ing at this post? Weren't all the batb cw promos always put more Vincent before as well as on their episode clips & DVD covers. So Let's cheers they keep cutting Catherine mportance? A toast for CW for keeping up with Hollywood sexist/mysoginistic ways & 5heir fans too apparently.

There you are, right on cue.
You always bring a smile to my face with your singularly minded tenacious crusade to have more Cat time on the show. So I'm actually LOL-ing with you, because I hope for the same thing. I'm not happy they cut Catherine's scenes from the TV commercial. I realize now that they also cut out the VinCat kiss too. I think the original version was better. But hey, at least they're running TV commercials.
OTOH, I still love the show for what it is and I get why the girls love Vincent. All I can say is it takes two to have a love story and each side needs to be interesting and compelling to work the BATB magic.

Thanks Yolie! A different version, cut out scenes ....anyway, the most important thing is that they shown the promo on TV and not only one time. The more we get the better it is for our show!
Dan, we are not Loling at you, we were just expecting your reaction. I think Beastieboy has a good point, we would not love Vincat love story if we didn’t also love Catherine character. I do love her and I do think she’s a huge part of what makes this love story and chemistry that special...now we cannot change that we’re women...and then attracted to Vincent before anything else.
Thank you Yolie for posting the Tv commercial for us outside of the US,, sounds very real now that we saw this on tv...we can no longer say there was zero promo

Hej dan, someone likes Cat more the other V, JT or Tess and that is ok. We all are beasties and our show is called beauty AND the beast. Without the beauty or the beast the show lose chemistry. I love both Cat and V and Cat has a strong personality so for me she is always present if she is on screen or not. Without her or V it would't be the show we all love!
3 more weeks! Why does it still feel like an eternity?
In the words of the original Beauty and her Beast: Catherine Chandler: You must promise me one thing; that you'll share it with me. Whatever happens, whatever comes. Vincent: Whatever happens, whatever comes... know that I love you. 3 more weeks until I gaze upon them reborn again!
And a clip of when I first fell hard for Catherine and Vincent - www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEOIG5uDwe0 I found that again in the beautiful form of KK and JR!
