Beauty and the Beast: Held Hostage (2014)
best episode yet
I was so thrilled to finally see Vincent's humanity returning and to see much more character development with this episode. There was definitely a sense that Vincent is seeing a path away from Tori and that he recognizes that his choices have brought him to a place he is not overly excited about. And also to recognize that he does want to be near Catherine, even if he thinks she would be better off without him. By far, Nina Lisandrello was the best in this episode, she was funny, and quick, and communicated her fear and joy very well. Wish we could have seen Tess have a fun birthday, all these characters really do need to have a day of some lighthearted fun at least once! Jay Ryan without a doubt has demonstrated over and over again his strength with acting, communicating thoughts and emotions without having to say a word. Only thing missing was our favorite JT but understandable in this episode. Great job by Pamela Sue Anton!

This by far was the best episode yet for me this season. I am glad that the character Catherine gave herself some space but was willing to step in and help when needed. Gabe is developing into a very likable character and there never will be enough of Tess Vargas on the screen. The only downside for this whole season so far is the lack of JT Forbes weekly. There was such a rich relationship between JT and Vincent last season that is sorely lacking, something you hear a lot on twitter as well. But understandable as Vincent is still learning about his past and how these people fit into his history. So excited to see all that this season has in store for us!
Beauty and the Beast: Who Am I? (2013)
Fantastic Start
It was a much anticipated return and the first episode delivered beyond expectations. So enjoyed the show! I am very curious as to where the season will take us. Hard to see our favorite couple not together but know that they will eventually find their way back. Great to see Kristin Kreuk back in action, that woman is amazing with her stunt work. The pacing was fast and kept you on the edge of your seat for the whole episode. It truly felt like we only got to watch ten minutes not a full episode! It is going to be another amazing roller coaster ride for the beasties for sure! Just hope we can all hang on and handle the ups, downs and loop de loops this show has been known to throw at us!
Beauty and the Beast: Man or Beast? (2013)
Beastie thoughts
This was the most difficult episode for me so far. So much happened in the first viewing and it was very hard to process. But after multiple viewings I see humor, angst, challenges and for a moment some of what I miss from season 1. It was a very complex and intertwined episode that requires you to pay attention to little details as well as just the action on the screen. There is always a lot going on in the Beauty and the Beast shows but this one had so many layers it has taken about 15 views to really appreciate all the interactions, the level of character development and so many questions as to where do we go from here. Really am unable to make any predictions as they are surprising me every day!
