rodoI am so in love with Being Human *squee*.
I know the show’s premise sounds a bit like a bad joke (So a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost walk into a bar…), but it’s very adorable, promise. Especially George, the neurotic werewolf. Hell, I even like the vampire.
A lot of things were changed, and the only George (Russell Tovey) is left of the main cast of the pilot. However, I like the new actors. I still miss the old ones, but I think the new Mitchell does a good job. I’m a bit undecided when it comes to Annie, because I preferred the old Annie’s personality, even though the new Annie is a lot easier to understand, for one (and I thought I’d got the hang of British accents). I think her interaction with George works better as well.
The vampires were less cliché and thus much creepier. It’s probably because I don’t buy the Anne Rice version of vampires, so the nice and rather unremarkable policeman works for me.

Date: 2009-01-27 12:01 am (UTC)I have to say I love the new actors. Mitchell needs a new haircut (sharpish!), but Annie is rather sweet.
I had to laugh out loud a few times when George went on one of his rants. I loved the scene where Mitchell calls him a spy. "You must have had training."
Is the new police man Henryk? I was confused about that. But the
hotsuit guy is still the same as in the pilot, am I right?The intro was a bit long but I was pleasantly surprised by this episode. Oh and that hospital room where suit!guy tried to bite the patient was probably some kind of closet. Have you ever seen a sing room (in a hospital!) this small?
