Beauty and the Beast: Cancelled Quickly or a Big Hit?

Beauty and the Beast revolves around a female homicide detective (Kristin Kreuk) who years ago witnessed the murder of her mother at the hands of two gunmen. She was a saved by someone or something that wasn’t totally human. Now, years later, she meets her savior (Jay Ryan) again. He helps her solve crimes while she keeps his existence a secret.

Airing on Thursday nights, following The Vampire Diaries on The CW, Beauty and the Beast will have to compete for viewers with Grey’s Anatomy on ABC, Person of Interest on CBS, Glee on FOX, and The Office and Parks and Recreation on NBC.
