A few more details about the Being Human remake: the show will be set in Boston, the "chemistry" of the three characters will be altered slightly, George the werewolf has been renamed Josh, vampire Mitchell will be Jewish, and the plots will be pacier. The Syfy series (developed by Everwood's Anna Fricke and Supernatural's Jeremy Carver) will enter pre-production next month, scheduled to broadcast early 2011.
I know there's some caution about this remake, but I'm actually quite positive about it in principle. If they retain the original's mix of comedy/horror, cast it well, and don't overshadow the characters with pointless special-effects (of which there will almost definitely be more), I think it could work just fine.
