The series "Beauty and the Beast" - an unconventional tale, transformed the creators of the show Sherri Cooper and Jennifer Levin procedural detective for the American television channel CW. In addition to a very peculiar mix of mythology and detective fiction, in the TV series "Beauty and the Beast" characters are far from trivial.

Weak half

"Beauty" in the TV series "Beauty and the Beast" name Catherine Chandler. At a young age she experienced a tragedy: her eyes tightly killed her mother, and she survived Katherine only through the intervention of a creature, more like an animal than a human being. The girl grew up and became a detective in the NYPD again to regain a sense of security.

Catherine Chandler played by actress Kristin Kreuk. From the beginning of the story, her character is not much different from last role Kreuk - Lana Lang, despite the fact that over time, it is possible to add some character traits and emotional range to expand, it is still about the same level. What was good for a "girl's Superman" is not appropriate for the police detective Catherine looks weak, too passive and phlegmatic, which can not be a girl to make a living the investigation of particularly serious offenses.

Tess Vargas (Nina Lisandrello) naparnitsa Katherine partially saves the situation. It is lively and convincing in his role than Katherine, however, their interaction on the screen often gives insincerity. From Tess script authors are trying to create a character with certain emotional problems, to complement the Kathryn. In the story, she is in love with a married own boss and meets him. This romantic line does not fit the nature of the character, it blurs it. Actress Nina Lisandrello trying not to overplay, but it is not always possible.

The appearance of two detectives teammates Vargas Chenler would be appreciated on the catwalk, but not at the crime scene. Perhaps the authors of the series want to say that the New York Police extinct men or sexist, and they refuse to work with women, and that they have to chase organized crime together.

Strong half

"Beast" in the series named Vincent Keller, and he has a PhD, fantastic ability and very misty past. The role went to handsome Jay Ryan, which does not spoil a couple of scars on his face. Vincent Keller epitomizes modern knight sad image: a military doctor, the victim of illegal experiments and arbitrary power. For the main character it is of interest to their mysterious past and awakens in her the desire to care for and protect.

Stragicheskoy mask and dramatic accent, with whom Ryan plays his character, it is surprising that his door had not yet formed a queue of those wishing to help the poor hero in his attempts to cope with the consequences of genetic modification.

Evan Marx is kind of enemy Dr. Keller on the love front. He is an old friend of Catherine, a pathologist and work experience to the girl unfading romantic interest, that does not prevent him to give her friendly support when needed. Max Brown, playing the role of Marx, he adds a special charm to his English accent and manners.

Another archetypal "old friend" in the series is JT Forbes, a little crazy professor at a local university, Keller helping out of difficult situations and hides it from those who hunt him. Austin Besis playing it on semitones of drama and comedy, which allows to take a character seriously, even if the context is full of sarcasm.

Among the protagonists of the series is also included Joey Bishop - Chief Catherine and Tess, with the last of its associated relationship. The role played by a really talented Brian J.. White, but his character does not produce a holistic impression of it as a team of mosaic, which needs work, to appear before the audience in its true form. However, until this happens, Joe will plot a unit that connects to the detective story and aggravating life and reputation Tess Vargas.
