... Question: Any word with what's going on with BBC's Being Human? I heard the actor who plays Mitchell left and the one playing George is going to leave. Will there be a new season on BBC America? I never started watching the Syfy series because I was watching the BBC edition. How does it compare to the British one?

Matt Roush: Late last week, BBC America announced the fourth season of the original (and superior) version of Being Human would begin airing Feb. 25 as part of the Supernatural Saturdays franchise. Aidan Turner (Mitchell) left at the end of last season — quite violently and memorably, if you'll recall — and by all accounts, this appears to be a transitional season for Russell Tovey (George) as well, with new characters being introduced as the originals are phased out. (Lenora Crichlow stays put as Annie, for continuity's sake.) I'll reserve judgment until I see how the new blood plays out, but it's hard to imagine it will leave me as unimpressed as the Syfy version does...
