Is anyone else watching this? A werewolf a vampire & a ghost sharing an inner city flat. Two episodes in and very good it is too - likeable characters, interesting storylines and some spendidly broad swings from chatty everyday life comedy to out and out horror, even if the werewolf special effects mean he's more of the cuddly dog variety than the Rob Bottin shit scary giants of The Howling. Plus if anyone fancies seeing the kind of place I regularly haunt with top hat, cane and cloak, check out the bit where the girl got her throat slashed and he refused to reanimate her - that gloomy cobblestoned alleyway is smack in the middle of Bristol & I have passed through it many a time. | ||

Warched the first ep, which was okay until the secret coven of vampires appeared. Such a cliche; it was enough to make me not watch the 2nd ep. I'm not watching much TV at the minute, though. Just LOST. I'm trying to maximise my reading and writing time and clesr my head of the clog of digital residue. | ||

Really enjoying it myself. I do agree that the werewolf is quite weak as these things go, even Oz looked more frightening in Buffy. | ||

I've just finished watching this series I thought it was excellent - far better than Apparitions and a lot more enjoyable than Dead Set. Well written dialogue, fun plotting, well acted and with lots of locations familiar to me that were just the icing on the cake. It gets my vote for best horror TV in absolutely ages. | ||

I saw bits of episodes and thought it was a bit patchy...then watched the final episode in its entirety and thought it was a wonderful hour of TV. I may have to catch up with it on DVD. | ||

Second best thing on free telly of late in my view. DEXTER being number one. Though RED RIDING starts tonight . . . and clashes with DEXTER! | ||

Just started watching this series kindly provided for me on DVD by my son. Good innit? Seen first two episodes. That young male actor (who was in 'Little Dorrit') - brilliant acting!! |
