Bitten
is a SyFy Channel show based on a Canadian television series based on
the Women of the Otherworld series of books by author Kelley
Armstrong; its name was taken from the first book in the series. The
story centers on Elena Michaels (portrayed by Laura Vandervoort, a
female Werewolf who is torn between a normal life with her human
boyfriend Philip in Toronto and her Werewolf family obligations in
Upstate New York. Among her pack is her ex-fiance Clayton, who is
responsible for her becoming a werewolf, which makes things a little
complicated knowing the she has a new love in her life.
Obviously
geared at fans of Twilight, this pretty average series is ten
episodes in length and spans three discs. Bad Blood, Scare
Tactics, Hell's Teeth, Dead Meat, Rabbit Hole, Nine Circles, Bad
Dreams, Dark Arts, Scavenger's Hunts, and Fine Deporeum.
Presented
in standard definition with an anamorphic widescreen transfer and a
lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 track. It pushes the boundaries of the format
but doesn't quite get to Blu-ray worthy quality.

Though
targeted to a YA audience, Bitten isn't the worst thing on
television but far from the best. If you were a fan of the first
season (reviewed elsewhere on this site; at least these shows are an
improvement over the debut season, if not by much) then you will
enjoy this one.
