Season three’s ratings were down from season two, but the show continues to have a strong presence on social media. In addition to Ryan and Kreuk, the Beauty and the Beast cast includes Nina Lisandrello and Austin Basis.

The season three plot: “Cat and Vincent are able to focus on their love, finally free from Muirfield, manhunts and beasts, However, that love will be tested as new and more dangerous threats await. When they learn that innocent victims are being used to test the boundaries of the impossible, Cat and Vincent will uncover a deeper conspiracy, one which Vincent can fight only by turning to the beast he carries within. But unleashing the beast will risk Vincent’s life – along with his and Cat’s love – as they struggle to build a normal life together.”
