LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Being Human is a supernatural drama television series broadcast on Space in Canada and on Syfy in the U.S. It is being produced by Muse in Montreal and is based on the British show of the same name made by the BBC.[3] Synopsis Main article: List of Being Human (North American TV series) episodesThe series revolves around three roommates living in Boston who appear to be in their twenties, who try to live normal lives despite being a ghost, a vampire, and a werewolf.[4] Cast and characters Main cast Main article: List of Being Human (North American TV series) characters Sam Witwer as Aidan – a vampire. Aidan became a vampire during the Revolutionary War; at the time of the series' setting, he works as a nurse at a Boston hospital. Sam Huntington as Josh – a werewolf, who works as an orderly at the same hospital. Meaghan Rath as Sally – a ghost who haunts the house Aidan and Josh rent. She was engaged to their landlord, and had planned to live in the house with him before her untimely death. Mark Pellegrino as Bishop – James Bishop, born in England, became a vampire during the 17th century and turned Aidan into a vampire during the Revolutionary War. At the time of the series' setting, he is a member of the Boston Police Department. Recurring cast Sarah Allen as Rebecca – Aidan's ex-girlfriend, whom he drained of blood unto death in a moment of weakness. Instead of disposing of the body as Aidan had wanted, Bishop had Rebecca revived as a vampire. She hates Aidan for leaving her for dead but embraces the dark side of her new existence. Alison Louder as Emily – Josh's sister. She came out of the closet as a lesbian just before Josh was turned into a werewolf and forced to disappear. She found Josh at the hospital where he works while visiting her girlfriend, an in-patient. Production On June 28, Entertainment Weekly reported that actor Sam Witwer had signed on to play the vampire Aidan in the remake, and that Meaghan Rath had signed to play the ghost Sally with Sam Huntington close to a deal to play the werewolf Josh.[5] On July 7, it was announced that Lost and Supernatural alumnus Mark Pellegrino would be joining the cast as "Aidan's charismatic but menacing mentor Bishop".[6] Adaptation Husband-and-wife team Jeremy Carver and Anna Fricke were tasked with adapting the British series for North American television.[1] Carver said that he and Fricke hoped "to use elements of the original series while reimagining a series all of our own. I think that starts with many of the new characters and storylines that we created. I think you’re going to see a show that gives a very nice nod to the original version.”[7] Carver and Fricke also stated their intention to retain the original program's dark and morally ambiguous qualities.[8] At the beginning of the first 13-episode season, the program will roughly follow the narrative arc of the first season of the British original.[8][9] However, since that season was only 6 episodes long, the North American program will also develop new stories and arcs.[8][9] Some similar elements will also develop in a different manner; Carver said, "We explore these moments and what the characters experienced in the British version and say to the writers, 'What if we do this differently?'"[9] However, elements of the directorial style of the first two episodes followed the original pilot and first regular episode of the UK series, in some cases shot-for-shot.[10] One explicit tribute to the British series is the name of the vampire, Aidan; the character is named after Irish actor Aidan Turner, who plays the vampire Mitchell in the original series.[11] The other main characters in the North American version at first appear to correspond to their British counterparts (werewolves Josh and George, ghosts Sally and Annie, vampire leaders Bishop and Herrick),[10] but actor Sam Witwer was keen to stress the differences between the characters in the two programs: "These are not the same characters. ... There are a lot of similarities, but for example, Bishop is not Herrick. Not in the slightest. He’s not the same guy.[11] As of January 2011[update], the North American series' writers have seen only the first season of the British series; they deliberately avoided the second series when it aired on BBC America.[9] Similarly, the North American actors have seen little of the British series; Witwer told an interviewer that he had watched only the first episode, and avoided watching any more in order to avoid subconsciously mimicking Aidan Turner's performance, but that he was looking forward to seeing more of the original in the future.[11] Quote
