BBC AMERICA today announced the acquisition of two new U.S. premiere seasons of the BBC AMERICA co-production, Being Human. The show’s highly anticipated second season will premiere in late summer with the third season following shortly.
Being Human (S1, 6 x 60 and S2, 6 x 60) is a Touchpaper Television and BBC AMERICA co-production for the BBC and is distributed by RDF Rights, part of the RDF Media Group.
Being Human premiered on the channel in July 2009 and quickly won over fans, with a sold out crowd at last year’s San Diego Comic Con. The Los Angeles Times said it “has not only avoided any sci-fi Three’s Company comparisons but wound up with a compelling, self-aware and funny story line. Buffy fans – come out of the Twilight and sink your teeth into this import” with The New York Times noting that “all three characters are highly appealing, but the charm of the show lies in the delicate balance of engrossing drama and disarming humor; the series is not campy or self-conscious, it’s witty in an offhand, understated way.”
I have added screencaps from the fifth episode of Being Human.

Kemp and Lucy prepare supper for Mitchell.
In this episode, Mitchell remembers meeting a woman who changed his life and he’s starting to think Lucy might have the same effect. George’s relationship with Sam continues apace and Annie has a shock when she’s left looking after a ghost baby.

Some good news for our friends across the pond crept out over the weekend: the BBC Three’s “Being Human” is being renewed for its third season. And not only that, but the three housemates are relocating to Wales!
The BBC’s Press Office confirmed that stars Russell Tovey, Lenora Crichlow, and Aidan Turner will all be returning to their roles of supernatural friends trying to live normal lives despite their unusual afflictions (i.e., being a werewolf, ghost, and vampire, respectively).
