Oh Skiffy...

Syfy has requested a rework of "Being Human" for the US. They really need to change their slogan from "Imagine Greater" to "We'll take anyone else's idea that worked and then run it into the ground. Unless it's actually popular. Then we'll cancel it."

I'm extremely leery of how an Americanized version will do. For me the cast is a HUGE part of why I love "Being Human". I'm not sure they could duplicate that. I also wonder how watered down it would be.

Yes, exactly! They'll cut off the subtlety, they'll add clichées and big explosions etc. and I'm always wondering why they do that? I mean, can't they trust their American audience to get the film without the American touch?

I know there are exceptions to this, but I have HUGE doubts as to Syfy being able to pull it off.

Let's hope the US version will be one of those exceptions.
