Line 4:
The premise was simple. Catherine Chandler (Linda Hamilton), a lawyer, is abducted, beaten, slashed and left to die in Central Park. She is then rescued by Vincent ([[Ron Perlman]]), a member of a secret community of outcasts living in tunnels under the city. The series then focused partly on the attraction between the two characters, and partly on the cases Catherine encountered in her new career. Said career being the role of Assistant District Attorney, facing crime drama situations.
 
Many of the episodes were penned by none other than [[George RRR. R. Martin]], now famous for his ''[[A Song of Ice and Fire]]'' series of novels.
 
The CW has commissioned a reboot of the series with a more urban super-hero spin and Kristin Kreuk as Catherine, set to debut in the fall 2012 season.
Line 16:
* [[Beneath the Earth]]
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Vincent.
* [[Blind and Thethe Beast]]: Catherine has her eyes covered with bandages when she first meets Vincent, and has fallen in love with him by the time her eyesight has been restored.
* [[Comet of Doom]]
* [[Death Byby Childbirth]]:
** Vincent's mother dies (still leaving it unexplained as to how the hell Vincent came to be.)
** Devin's mother, which keeps Father from acknowledging Devin as his son until he becomes an adult.
** Hell, even Catherine suffered this in the end. She didn't die directly afterwards but she never got to hold the kid and died in Vincent's arms (... I think.)
* [[For Halloween I Am Going Asas Myself]]: Vincent gets to wander around in the episode "Masquerades", and he and Catherine [[Unresolved Sexual Tension|almost kiss]] at dawn, until they are spotted by a jogger who comments, "Halloween was last night, man!"
* [[Gold Fever]]
* [[Heartbroken Badass]]
* [[Homage]]: Vincent's appearance resembles that of the Beast in [[Beauty and Thethe Beast (Film1946 film)|Jean Cocteau's 1946 film version]] of the fairy tale.
* [[The Load]]: Catherine, oh so Catherine. The woman's only purpose for existence is to get in trouble, thus forcing Vincent to risk all by rescuing her. But despite this....
* [[Mindlink Mates]]
