3.0 out of 5 stars
LOVED the Series...But this isn't a Favorite Episode, January 1, 2005
This review is from: Beauty and the Beast, Episode 13: China Moon [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This particular episode did not rank high for me, but that was not the norm for this series. "Beauty and the Beast" is, without a doubt, THE BEST sci-fi/fantasy/drama ever made for television. The writing and scripts were outstanding. Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton made a powerful presence as Vincent and Catherine. Story lines drew people in on a dime. You were hooked each week. It was different. It was special. It was amazing. Republic really needs to release this series on DVD and really should consider re-running the series on cable. I'm sure there is a whole new group of people waiting to see just how special this series really is.

Vincent and Catherine Attend a Wedding, June 9, 2000
This review is from: Beauty and the Beast, Episode 13: China Moon [VHS] (VHS Tape)
A friend of the tunnel dwellers is being forced into an arranged marriage with a man she doesn't love, and kept away from the man she does love. For helping her out the tunnel dwellers face the wrath of an organized crime faction from Chinatown. For invading the tunnels the criminals face the wrath of Vincent. Through watching a couple in love battle obstacles to achieve their union, Vincent and Catherine have occasion to ponder the circumstances that keep THEM apart, not least of which at a wedding where they pay a lot more attention to each other than to the bride and groom. "China Moon" finishes strongly with an emotional scene between Vincent and Catherine (not unusual for the series). In 1998 I conducted a poll among Beauty and the Beast fans asking them to rate the 44 episodes of the first two seasons on a 1-to-10 scale. 31 fans participated. "China Moon" finished 32nd out of the 44 episodes. I placed "China Moon" 22nd in my own personal 1-through-44 rank-ordering of the episodes.
