Re: Being Human US and UK Season 3

The two quoted comment below sum up my feelings on the tf. That was pretty much one of the best female tfs (specifically werewolf) I've seen. The tales from the dark side one beats it out only slightly.

A lot of you are seriously being overly anal imo. The CG was good for a TV show and it was definitely better than almost all of the photomanips and cg stuff I've seen on the web. And I personally can't complain for how short it was. Anyone that expected a full TF of her on the first episode back obviously should never bet using real money. I'd rather them spend more time on the plot then feeding my fetish.

The UK version had Nina in an empty room with most of her clothes off; Nora is trapped in a car, with her clothes on. It felt far more spontaneous and tense. I'd love to see more, but I am perfectly content with what we got (fangs, claws, muzzle, some clothes ripping). Short of coming here and asking us what we wanted to see, I think they did a really good job.

What better live-action female werewolf transformation has there been than this? I think this is clearly superior to UK's Being Human. The old She-Wolf of London series had some good buildups, but didn't have the budget to do any kind of actual transformation. The prior champion probably would have been American Werewolf in Paris, but personally, I like this one quite a bit better (admittedly in part because I find the actress that plays Nora more attractive than Julie Delpy).

Now, saying this is the best ever in this topic is a fairly low bar, as I can think of a half dozen better male transformations fairly easily. But still, I can't see any way to see this as disappointing. The odds of anything being better than this on mainstream TV are really, really low.
