Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Kristen Hagen, Natalie Brown, Susanna Fournier Writer: Chris Dingess, adapted for U.S. television by Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke, created for U.K. television by Toby Whithouse Director: Paolo Barzman Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: January 30, 2012 The BEING HUMAN episode “All Out of Blood” deals, per its title, with vampire Aidan (Sam Witwer) encountering some unplanned dietary problems, but the real strength here are some surprising and intriguing additions to the ghost mythology. On the downside, it’s becoming a matter of some suspense just how much more whining and sulking […]Read On »

CD Review: BEING HUMAN soundtrack

By DANIEL SCHWEIGER 09/03/2011
BEING HUMAN soundtrack | ©2011 Silva Screen Records

For this horror take on THREE’S COMPANY, a ghost, a vampire and a werewolf try their hand at co-habitation with results that would have made mincemeat out of Mr. Roper in the BBC series BEING HUMAN. Yet composer Richard Wells (EVIL ALIENS, THE MUTANT CHRONICLES) music goes a long way towards aurally convincing us of BBC’s oddball high concept, taking a straight-laced approach to this series’ growing supernatural friendship in Series 1 & 2, while also giving its ties that bind a particular mournfulness that comes with being undead. The cues within offer visceral shocks and eerie abstractness, while a […]Read On »

Exclusive Interview: Sam Witwer reveals the early scoop on BEING HUMAN Season 2

By CARL CORTEZ 08/24/2011

It ain’t easy being a loner vampire, as Aidan (Sam Witwer) found out on the Syfy incarnation of the BBC series of BEING HUMAN. And when your roommates are a ghost named Sally (Meaghan Rath) and a werewolf named Josh (Sam Huntington) – things can get downright bizarre. As the Syfy series wound down Season 1 earlier this year, Aidan found his loner status threatened when he was suddenly now the leaders of a group of junkie vampires after his mentor and later antagonist Bishop (Mark Pellegrino) was killed. Recently ASSIGNMENT X spoke to actor Sam Witwer to get the […]Read On »

DYLAN DOG - DEAD OF NIGHT movie poster | ©2011 Freestyle Releasing

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Brandon Routh, Anita Briem, Sam Huntington, Peter Stormare, Taye Diggs Writers: Thomas Dean Donnelly & Joshua Oppenheimer, based on the graphic novels created by Tiziano Sclavi Director: Kevin Munroe Distributor: Freestyle Releasing Release Date: April 29, 2011 There’s nothing really wrong with DYLAN DOG: DEAD OF NIGHT as far as it goes. Unfortunately, the movie is coming out after about five million TV series and several other film franchises with more or less the same premise. Once the initial specific memory wears off, viewers may find themselves trying to remind which episode of BUFFY featured Brandon Routh […]Read On »

TV Review: BEING HUMAN – Season 1 – “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Me Killing You” – Season Finale

By RACHEL REITSLEFF 04/13/2011
Sam Witwer and Meaghan Rath in BEING HUMAN - Season 1 - "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Me Killing You" | ©2011 Syfy/Philippe Bosse

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Mark Pellegrino, Kristen Hager, Terry Kinney Writers: Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke Director: Adam Kane Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: April 11, 2011 BEING HUMAN ends its first season on a note of suitable completion, if not genius. It flips around who gets to be the hero of the piece from its British forerunner to somewhat tamer effect, but still generates enough good will for the main characters to keep us invested in their challenges, both separate and shared. After the previous episode culminated in vampire leader Bishop (Mark Pellegrino) staking […]Read On »

TV Review: BEING HUMAN – Season 1 – “You’re the One That I Haunt”

Mark Pelligrino in BEING HUMAN - Season 1 - "You're the One That I Haunt" | ©2011 Syfy/Phillipe Boss

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Mark Pellegrino, Kristen Hager, Sarah Allen, Gianpaolo Venuta Writer: Nancy Won Director: Erik Canuel Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: April 4, 2011 There are plenty of dramatic events in the BEING HUMAN episode “You’re the One That I Haunt,” but they’ll probably play better for those who haven’t seen the original, because this hews very closely to the template in two of the plot threads, while being rather brief with the third. As the episode opens, ghost Sally (Meagan Rath) is much the worse for wear after a mostly-failed exorcism attempt […]Read On »

Terry Kinney in BEING HUMAN - Season 1 - "Dog Eat Dog" | ©2011 Syfy/Philppe Bosse

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Mark Pellegrino, Kristen Hager, Sarah Allen, Gianpaolo Venuta, Vincent Leclerc, Angela Galuppo, Terry Kinney Writer: Chris Dingess Director: Erik Canuel Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: March 28, 2011 In BEING HUMAN’s episode “Going Dutch,” our three leads’ stories all take big jumps forward. For werewolf Josh (Sam Huntington), it’s panic time when girlfriend Nora (Kristen Hager) tells him she’s pregnant – not because he doesn’t want commitment, but because he’s afraid he’s passing along his wolf genes (which he still hasn’t told Nora about). Ghost Sally (Meaghan Rath) has an unpleasant […]Read On »

BEING HUMAN started life as a BBC series, created by Toby Whithouse, about three Londoners sharing a flat, who just happen to be, respectively, a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost.

While Whithouse is a producer on the new version, the executive producers/show runners are Jeremy Carver and Anna Fricke, who sit together on a couch as they talk about all their characters who […]Read On »
