Clearly the folks at the Syfy channel thought, "Hey, there's this really cool show on the BBC called Being human, but the characters are waaaaay too likable and the style of the show is indie and unusual. Clearly what's needed is to make the characters five or six times more whiny and unpleasant, then stir in extra melodrama, mediocre acting, and random homophobia. After all, you can't make a show about two male roomates without underscoring their heterosexuality by having them make anti-gay remarks. Oh, and the original wasn't bland enough. Let's make it more bland! Also, the original had excellent pacing. Let's slow the thing down so it feels like pulling teeth!" *shudder* I know, I know, I was expecting it to suck. I shouldn't have watched. I was curious as to how bad it would be and that time slot's all garbage anyway.
