kingandyOoh.
Have just watched the new BBC fantasy drama, "Being Human", which despite the advertising did not turn out to be a sitcom - though it is witty, in the same way The Empty Child was witty, or Blink, while at the same time being thoroughly grown-up. It takes itself seriously - but not in a po-faced way, it's more that it treats the subject matter with respect and maturity. It is Buffy for the British adult; it's what Hex should have been.
UK residents can watch the first 60-minute episode here, thanks to the unique way the BBC is funded.
