Being Human, 3.2.
Realised that I never wrote down my thoughts. Spoilers under the cut.
- Liked the teen vampire idea (partly just because of the un-Twilight-y feel of it! *g*), and thought it was handled very well. Teenage boys can be smelly, unpleasant, rude and crude, but they've also mostly got the heart in the right place.
- It's interesting to see Annie and Mitchell - both of whom pursued their own agendas last season - now falling into a rather worrying co-dependence. It makes sense, but I dearly hope it won't end in tragedy... (Whatever will happen once Mitchell has to tell the truth?)
- A.A. Gill wrote a rather scathing review in the Sunday Times, saying how he'd enjoyed the very English feel of S1, but now it was all just 'superpowers'. I agree that S1 had a much more intimate feel, but the show is called 'Being Human', not 'Being English', and it does a very, very good job of looking at its chosen subject. The vampires this week being a prime example, both showing and telling that there is nothing in the supernatural world that can not be found amongst humans too...
(I have to run, but I'm sure you know what I mean.)
