More Weekly Vampire On
The Way!! Syfy Orders 13
Americanized Episodes Of
The BBC’s BEING HUMAN!!



I am – Hercules!!

Weekly doses of “True Blood” and “The Vampire Diaries” not getting it done for you?

Syfy has ordered 13 episodes of an Americanized “Being Human,” based on the BBC series about a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost who team up to fight crime. Or maybe they don’t fight crime but they’re all roommates.

No writer or cast is yet attached to the project but Syfy hopes to have it on the channel by summer.

Find all of The Hollywood Reporter’s story on the matter here.
