TV Review: The CW’s ‘Beauty and the Beast’ Misses Allure of Concept
Submitted by BrianTT on October 11, 2012 - 2:16pmCHICAGO – The foundation of a show like The CW’s “Beauty and the Beast” is a timeless one.

There’s no edge here. Everything has been rounded out to the point that it lacks all personality. It’s the kind of show one can barely remember watching by the time the opening credits are done on what follows it.
