Poll question: Being Human...
Which version do you like? I've watched some of the British version, but didn't watch it from the beginning, so I like the American version.

1. Emo monsters pout a lot.
That's the whole goddamned show!

"Ooooh it sucks being a vampire."
"You're lucky! At least you're not a werewolf! boo hoo hoo!"
"Screw you both. I'm a poor ghost who can't eat pancakes. *sob*"

That show makes me wish I was a stake-wielding, silver bullet-firing exorcist. Can you all please just stop whining for One Fucking Episode?

3. British version
I don't always agree with the direction the show takes, but overall it's entertaining.
but more importantly, Aidan Turner plays Mitchell, and that man is freaking beautiful.
He's right up there with my favorite vampires, Spike and Angel.
If I was to be so pathetic as to rate TV vampires, and of course I'm not.

4. What you may not know, is there are concepts behind characters.
You can see them every once in awhile in a larger context.

'I been making shows of trading blows'

There is far more then just 'stories' in stories.

5. I'd like it better if there was more sex and less whining.

The guy who plays Aidan in the American version is hot. Damn.

7. British Version
I got hooked on it in season two. I tried watching the American version but I just can't get into it.

10. I am a bad person
I watch it via bootleg uploads offa watchseries.eu. If it's any consolation, I gotta play some serious pop-up/under whack-a-mole in order to see the episodes.

12. British
The American/Canadian version is actual quite good given that most remakes are not. But the British one is superior. And this season has Robson Green- hands down one of the sexiest men alive.

13. Both.
I saw the American version first, then checked out the British version and now watch them both. I prefer the Americanwerewolf, but the British vampire and ghost.
