How sad is this?

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

It's a shame this excellent show never got the viewers or number of episodes that it deserved. Amid the many lawyer, cop, and medical dramas this show, about a news station that reported stories and angles that other stations wouldn't report, was a refreshing change. The title, "The Beast", refers to the news station where the show is set. The station reports on news stories different from those the established stations run, and when the news gets slows they live broadcast from the cameras set up throughout the station. While the series was only allowed to run six episodes (the second which was not shown on TV), it quickly established interesting and compelling characters and plot lines. Perhaps part of the reason the show didn't get the numbers it needed to stay on the air was due to it's serial nature, where if you missed an episode or two it made difficult to follow some of continuing story lines. "The Beast" is an interesting and engaging show that I highly recommend.

I thought "The Beast" was a wonderful show and I was sad to see it go. I thought the concept was innovative, the writing marvelous, and the acting superb!! I am an admirer of the actress Elizabeth Mitchell's work. Her performance stands out in everything she appears in. All of the actors in "The Beast" stood out in their performances. I had hoped the show would return, but, alas, I guess all people out in TV land want to see is trash television. Good, quality shows like "The Beast" get canned, but Jerry Springer stays on the air. How...is...that??

I think I saw every show of this short lived series and I thought it was great--and had absolutely NO chance on network TV which is being devoured by reality and game shows. It had a great cast with good depth of characters and had it been given half a chance (or had been on non network TV) I think it would have found it's audience. There is little to no chance for a drama series on the networks these days...ER would have been cancelled in three airings in todays television climate. This show was DUMPED into mid summer Wednesday nights where building a new audience is difficult at best...and it was the kind of show you had to keep up with. I really liked Frank Langella's character facing his mortality, Elizabeth Mitchell and Naveen Andrews were both outstanding. There was some developement of each character==but it also seemed like they were showing episodes out of order, or skipping some, another bad plan by desperate TV executives that are under orders to make a quick buck and the hell with a quality show. I think it a horrible shame that there aren't more shows like this--The Street was another outstanding show that died quickly on the network

This show premiered on ABC shortly, then was canceled due to the fact that it could not find an audience. When I watched this show for the first time, I was trying to figure out what was going on, I skipped an episode, then when I watched again I was still stumped. If they ever decide to revive this series, I wouldn't recommend you watch it except for making fun of the character that looks like, and acts like Sean Connery, but isn't him.
