Yes, I did see the first couple episodes on BBCAmerica, didn't really catch on for me. I loved Jekyll, though, and Life on Mars, and some other show with Philip Gleinster that was like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, only with a young man as the focus ... Van Helsing or something like that? Or the main character was a descendent of Van Helsing?

Oh Gods...you're talking about Demons. I really didn't get along with that show. I watched it...and once I started watching I had to finish it, but didn't really gel with me.

Have you tried the US remake of Being Human? I'd be intrigued to hear if you like it. Quite a few people who didn't get into the original have really loved the remake. It's related, but also its own beast. Much higher production budget and values, and more episodes to be able to expand on some stuff that rushed through in the original. It's tonally very different.
