Syfy’s ‘Being Human’ Under Way
A lot of writers are referring to this as the U.S. version, which is actually kind of misleading: it’s being backed and distributed by a U.S. network, Syfy (which is, however, trying to increase its global profile with shows like this and Haven), but it’s being made in Montreal by a Canadian production house, and part of the cast is Canadian. To be more accurate we should say “the North American version of Being Human.”
This version of Being Human caries over the premise and the inherent conflicts of the three supernatural beings trying to room together and live human lives that were present in the original, but the characters are not necessarily going to be the same. The creators have signaled this by changing the names, and of necessity new actors will take their functional place in the story in new directions.
