Plus, casting Sams Witwer and Huntington was a pretty major coup. Darth Vader's video-game apprentice and Smallville's Doomsday as the vampire? The star of Fanboys and the big-screen Jimmy Olsen as the werewolf? Okay, the ghost (Meaghan Rath) is a Canadian actress who's virtually unknown in the States, but the show will be airing in Canada on the Space channel (their Syfy), so it's a smart move. And since the series looks to be following the British TV series' storyline, it's guaranteed to be at least as good as that one, right? [Irate yells and threats of bodily harm.] Okay, okay, nothing can be as good as the original. But maybe this can come close? [Murmured grumbles of assent] It's agreed, then.

Being Human (US version) premieres tonight at 9/8C on Syfy, opposite new episodes of The Cape, The Bachelor, Lie to Me, Two and a Half Men, Jersey Shore, Bad Girls Club, Cake Boss, Bridalplasty, Greek, Intervention, American Pickers and Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives.
