Being Human

[DanaC]

Being Human is a new Drama (comedy-drama) from the BBC. Made in conjunction with BBC America, so it may already have been shown over there?

Anyway. It just finished it's initial run, with a six episode series. It's been a major hit and was shown to much acclaim. I watched the original pilot about 8 months back, it was part of a series of one offs showcasing new talent. This was the one that got picked up and made into a series (along with a major recast, only the werewolf is the same). I'm so glad it did, it's wonderful. Very quirky, very engaging.

Basic set-up is: 3 housemates, a werewolf, a vampire and a ghost. In Bristol.

Here's a clip: its the first 8 minutes of episode 1. I love this show, well worth giving it a go.
