Storyline
Ron Koslow's updated version of the fairytale has a double focus: the relationship between Vincent,(a mythic, noble man-beast) and Catherine (an asst DA in New York); and a secret Utopian society of outcasts living in an underground sanctuary where Vincent is protected and loved. Through an emotional bond connecting Vincent to Catherine, he comes to be her protector as well as the man she loves. The series follows the developing relationship between them and nicely fleshes out the underground world of labyrinth tunnels, mystical waterfalls, and people who have come together to form a loving and nurturing family. In a twist from the original tale, this "beast" does not transform into society's idea of beauty after gaining the love of Catherine. Rather, Vincent's inner beauty is allowed to remain the focus of who he is and it is Catherine's former "shallow" self that is the ugliness transformed by their relationship.

Goofs
Continuity: In "Seige", Catherine visits Vincent in the tunnels and he is heartbroken that she is falling in love with good looking businessman Elliot Burch. Vincent turns to go back into the tunnel and Catherine sadly watches him go. As he turns back to look at her, the hood on his cloak is down. The camera turns to Catherine, then back to Vincent who's hood is now on, then back to Catherine and once again, back to Vincent who's hood is once again off, as he turns to go inside. See more »
