Being Human, Series 2, Episode 1: Further Commentary

The initial piece I wrote on this was a tad rushed due to my digibox breaking and me watching it at midnight on i-player. THis situation may lead to me not being able to review any future episodes if I can't watch them so spologies for that. But I wanted to clarify a few things I said and give a bit more detail.
Firstly the bad. Iwas really annoyed at how the ahow allowed Annie to find her strength and power last year, only to rob her of it again now. She is still proving subservient to a man, lacking any social skills and trying to fit into a world she never can. Sorry but the central idea of a ghost getting a job needs more work if it's not to be ridiculous, the character seems to be filling a personality type different to what she is, if this is what you wanted then why not allow Annie to ascend or whatever you wan to call it and introduce a new, dorky female human to offset things. And stop giving her the worst faux dialogue too.
Now, the good. There were two main things I forgot to mention before as further justification for the score. Firstly the werewolf transformation scenes, especially Nina's (complete with distracting wolf boob) were surprisingly good and horror film level quality, as was the previously mentioned but brilliant scene of the poor soul in the decompression chamber bleeding out of several orifices, and a few newly created ones, and being torn apart by the curse as he was forced not to change.
Secondly I forgot to flag an excellent scene with Daisy, the vampire slut, in the hospital as she visits her now elderly daughter (the last person who really "needed her") and fights to deal with what she has become and the ramifications of the conflict between her former real life and the worst of the life she now finds herself in ("I'll kill her" she tells George who simply and beautifully responds "Go right ahead, but don't think for one second that that'll make her go away"), powerful, affecting and the kind of thing this show needs to focus on. Oh, and also how nice was the little touch when Mitchell, on a related note, found his happiness just being on the street among neighbours, being accepted and "normal" and saying so much with one word ("finally"). It won't last. Until next time faithful reader.
