IF you haven't heard the SYFY channel is making a Being Human US style and it starts in January. www.syfy.com/beinghuman/index.phpI don't know if I'm going to support this I mean I am a huge fan of the BBC version and I hate to see it ruined, then again it could be great. I'm in America and I watch Being Human on BBC America. It's just that those BBC scifi shows like Dr. Who, Torchwood, Hex, and Being Human have a different air/feel to them, they are great, why mess with greatness?

I'll be checking it out. I really liked the first season of the BBC show, and I still need to pick up Season 2 on Blu-Ray.
If it sucks though, it will be no skin off my back. I am excited that Mark Pellegrino will be on the show though.

As someone who's never seen the original, I can offer some criticism free from any knowledge of the parent show. I was planning on watching this; the premise is interesting enough, I think it'll be just fine in the "write" hands.

No, no no! Why does the US feel the need to remake other countries' already-awesome shows? I LOVE this show, why can't they just leave well enough alone? BAH!

I don't like the UK version of this, but US do recreate some great shows from over here, like The Office and American Idol.

^^The UK Office was written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant and was originally on the BBC. It only ran for two series but was so good.
