Beauty and the Beast (2012–2016)
4/10
Started off strong, went downhill
13 March 2022
I am just now watching this series in February of 2022. Basically I've been Marathon watching for about a week. I am in the third season, about halfway through the third season. This show started off strong in the first season, but it started going downhill with season 2, and season 3 is fairly ridiculous for the most part. The character of Catherine Chandler has become absolutely unbearable. She has become extremely annoying, her personality makes her completely unattractive, and it makes one wonder why Vincent would want anything to do with her by this point. Everything revolves around her and what she wants, to hell with consequences, to hell with everyone else. Even her supposed love for Vincent actually revolves around what he can do for her. The way she treats her friends, coworkers, and family members, is atrocious. Especially the way she treats her two aunts... Sisters of her dead mother... When they come to visit her to celebrate her wedding, is really pretty disgusting. She breaks her poor little sister's heart. I cannot despise this character enough.

The writers went off on some tangent. Talking about him losing his humanity if he beats out, and I'm hard-pressed to know what they are talking about because all of a sudden that was just a thing that was never an issue before, but it was suddenly part of the script, and made no sense if you followed along. It gives you the feeling that you missed some episodes, when you know that you didn't.

I don't know what the outcome is going to be, I am going to watch it to its end, though I may forward through some of it.
