Being Human
May. 30th, 2012 12:43 pmIn my overheated, internet-ish apartment last night, I was watching Being Human (UK). I'd been putting this off for a while, despite the Netflix discs sitting on my table. I watched the unaired pilot before the show came out and really liked it. I watched it a few times, in fact, since there was such a lag between it and the series being greenlit. Then I watched the actual pilot and was appalled--the recast everyone except Russell Tovey, and I was not a fan. But, I figured, I should give it a shot. So I watched the second episode and really hated it.
Now I'm trying once more to watch it. Since it's been a few years, I rewatched the first two eps, and the second episode really encapsulated what I don't like about the show. It was one exact moment: ( spoilers, obv )
I'm going to give it a few more eps to see if any of the subplots get interesting, but I think I'm sticking with my initial assessment.
