Being Human: thumbs down

[alexandral]

I finally sat down to watch new "Being Human", it took me a while because I was a little afraid knowing that two out of three major characters are played by different actors than in the pilot. I was so right to be afraid - the magic is gone, permanently gone. I might get used to it and I might even like "Being Human" again as a background show, but I don't think it will ever be anything out of ordinary.
I don't even know what I like less:
- new Mitchell (totally lacking any charisma),
- new Anne (totally lacking any cuteness)
- or the new writing and cinematography (cheery and cliche ridden).

New Mitchell: the hat, the training jacket (colour coordinated with the hat), the bad acting:

Hee! I am like that too, I will watch anything (well, almost anything) with a "right" kind of actor. New Mitchell can be attractive from certain angles, but then he puts on that grandfather-ly hat and ** br for me***

I'm just glad that they kept George. I have this irrational love for George even though he is SOOO far from the type of character I like. He's so twitchy and worries so much. I don't know why I even think that's cute.

He is so vulnerable I want to adopt him every time I see him. :D

RIGHT? So cute. I love how the actor plays him.
