Being Human.

Um... so they Americanized Being Human, and it will premiere on the SyFy Channel.

I ask this: why? :/

The BBC show is only going to be in its third season, and they decide to already make an American version.

Because they have nothing better to do.

because they had to come up with shows that'll air while they are planning out season 3 of WCG Ultimate Gamer.

I will say that it bothers me when they decide to Americanize a Brittish show.

I don't understand why they Americanize any TV program why don't they show the origonal I doubt it would confuse an American audience at all.

Americanising inbetweeners is a horrible move in terms of how funy its going to be.

And here I thought this was going to be a philosophical thread. Oh well, I'll contribute: Remember the movie Quarantine? Americanized version of the Spanish film [Rec], which was actually good.

The programe itself is quite philosophical.

I really enjoy the show Being Human, and am quite leary of the american version coming to sy fy. I mean, I'll have to check it out when it comes, but I have a strong feeling I'll be sticking with just the british version.

I remeber reading that the guy who does Starkiller's voice in the Force Unleashed games is supposed to play the lead vampire roll in the american version. And here are some photos from the american version here.

i use to really like being human but i think il have to look into the american one haha! see theyre take on it :3

Next they will be Americanising Sherlock... *sigh* HellsAngel2c

Best show on TV imo

Being Human is a great show. Not sure how I feel about an American version. I don't really think it's necessary.

I feel sorry for you guys, being human and all. It is definitely greener on this side of the fence. Human-after-all

Wish I knew what show you were talking about so I could make some educated comment, but in that light can you provide me with a link to the BBC series?

What's this show about?

Same here. But I saw "SyFy," and I like scifi.

I'm going to come to your planet in my starship and have relations with several of your women.

Nothing can go wrong with Americanizing a tv show, just look at:
Life on Mars
Blackadder
Red Dwarf
Coupling
The I.T. Crowd
Men Behaving Badly
Spaced
Teachers
The Thick of it
Wild at Heart

Oh... :P

What's this show about?Palantas

Sounds hilarious to be honest, should give it a go.

It's about a vampire, werewolf and a ghost living in the same houseHellsAngel2c

Has there ever been an american adaptation to a UK show that was actually better then the original?
