Being Human 2.05
Finally had time to watch this today, and the show continues to be awesome! :)
Herrick!!! Oh, how I've missed him. *happy sigh* Also I love, love, love Mitchell-flashback episodes, and this one was brilliant, giving us reams and reams of vampire info, interwoven with Josie's story. (Loved Josie! I'm so glad they got back to her, and now I want to go re-watch S1...)
The obvious parallels between Lucy and Josie were nicely done, although of course Lucy has ulterior motives and it's probably all going to end in tears... And how much did I love the D.I. (was he a D.I.? I can't remember. I'll just call him that, since I can't remember his name either.) continually trying to push Mitchell, and then getting more than he bargained for? I think that's the thing I love most about this 'verse - the soullessness. Mitchell is just Mitchell, his choices are his own, and he owns them. He tries to not kill, he rips out the D.I.'s throat when pushed too far, he begs for help, knowing that he can't do it alone.
(Not putting Spike & Angel down, I just like the difference.)
I wondered what they would do with Annie now she wasn't in danger of being dragged into the afterlife, and I rather liked what we got. Stuck in limbo forever, watching all the things she can't have... Also the idea of a ghost baby worked surprisingly well. :)
And George, George, George. *shakes head* It's all so very understandable, but oh, it'll definitely all end in tears. I hope Sam and Molly will be OK at the end. ('Running for the hills' was brilliant. ♥)
Must run, just had to show my appreciation. Wish I had time to write more, but this'll have to do!

*nods a lot* And there's a deep sadness to it too - Mitchell keeps trying, and yet he always falls in the end...
*hearts show too*
