Just saw this past weeks BBC episode (2/13) - fantastic Excellent excellent excellent werewolf episode (surprisingly titled 'The Pack'), especially at the end I love the way they handle werewolves in this show.

Just stumbled across this, but if you have BBC America, they're replaying both seasons of the show this weekend. Today, they played the first season (six episodes). Thursday and Friday, they're re-airing the eight episode second season with 4 hours each day (2-6pm ET and again from 12am -4am ET).
The big deal comes Saturday, when they're airing both seasons together, all 14 episodes back-to-back, from 6am to 8pm ET, leading up to the third season premiere at 9pm ET.

So much suspense and cliffhanger crammed into one episode this week... it was bloody amazing. The whole plot line they've been building with Mitchell trying to hide his slaughter of the box tunnel 20 is finally coming to the fore. Everyone watch it!

Just watched the latest episode (Daddy Ghoul) and it was fantastic I remember the dude who plays George's dad from Four Wedding and a Funeral - brilliant casting! Very funny, and very very intense with the Herrick moments. Wow.

Yep, so many nail biting moments - I was literally shouting at the TV when Herrick was whispering in Nancy's ear.
"No! NO! NO! Run away you stupid woman!!"

I really thought the actor who played "McNair?" did a great job w/the character. Seemed to just slide right into the storyline and was a strong presence when needed but could also really tone it down and be subtle.

I've been unable to watch last weeks because of a spoiler I read on facebook (Nina!) and I'm really really hesitant to watch this new one as I just read ANOTHER spoiler on facebook. Again. Like an idiot. D'oh.

Stop arguing with yourself.

Stop writing four word sentences.
Finally saw the next to last episode. Lots of stuff happening there. Still hesitant to watch the last...
SPOILER
Quite something to see Herrick back to his normal self at the end there. That guy is one hell of an actor. There are a few things that bugged me about the eppy, but thought the pacing was good, story was pretty good. And I LOVED McNair's wolf form at the very end, leaping for Herrick - woohoo! The fact that he bit it in the end really kinda sucked, but hardly a surprise. Mitchell mitchell mitchell, you silly bugger. One thing I don't get - if the lady cop's boss was a vampire, why did he bother showing her the print results? Why even allow that much? Particularly when he knew she had a shadow following her around who was helping her? (Annie) Okay, so he wanted to bring her into the fold - why didn't he do it when she was knocked out on the ground? Do it when Annie wasn't around? Why didn't the vampire society just bury the Box Tunnel 20 investigation when they knew Daisy & Mitchel were involved? If he had a 'super fan' who had a scrapbook about his deeds, no doubt the rest of the vamps in the area would have known as well.
So, wasn't completely sold on the whole thing, but it was good to see the secret out, as painful as it was for Annie and Mitchell.
Here's another little curiosity. Vampires are stronger than humans yes? So... why couldn't Mitchel throw off two cops in the station and just run for it? I'll take that maybe he's weak from not being a regular drinker, but he seemed pretty damn sure of his abilities when faced with the squad in the house, even with all those guns pointed at him.
POOR NINA!!! I love that character - she better make it!!

Hah, apparently the mods deleted the stupid argument that was going on in this thread. That post wasn't actually directed at you. Somebody signed up with two different accounts and was posting one after the other in this thread arguing about stupid things like werewolf sex. It was quite obviously the same person trolling, hence my post. Just thought I'd clear that up.
As you were, chaps.

Got some bad, bad, very bad news to report.
Russell Tovey, who plays George on the original version of the show, is leaving at the end of the upcoming season.
He announced the news last week on his Twitter page and mentioned it on another article online.
Basically, he said it felt strange doing the fourth season without Aiden Turner, who played Mitchell and left after last season to film "The Hobbitt", plus he's doing another BBC show and possibly movies.
Here's the link with the full story: (It's also mentioned on the Werewolf News website as well)

Sad news indeed, but maybe it could be the chance to go one step further with the cast from Becoming Human for the next season... what do you think?

You know, I thought about this last night after I posted this, and I think the guy who played McNair's son Tom, might be a good replacement.
Personally, I'd prefer Christa, but it's just a matter of preferences. Her performance was really nice.

What? You gotta be kidding me! aw man...I really like this show, it was one of my ultra favorite shows. So what's going to happen with the show--are they going to cancel it?

Just read word online about the new season (series) and wow there's ton of changes.
First off, not only is George leaving the show, but Nina is leaving too.
Next, ( as I expected it would happen) Tom, the young werewolf introduced last season, will be on the show full time along with a new vampire that's replacing Mitchell.
From what I read, the new season will start sometime in February in Britain, no word yet on when the shows will air in the US on BBC America.
