Syfy Renews 'Being Human' For Season 2

....Syfy has renewed promising freshman drama series Being Human for a second season. In its January 17 debut, Being Human, an adaptation of the British series, averaged 2 million viewers to become Syfy's most watched new scripted series winter premiere since Battlestar Galactica in 2005.

The series, produced by Zodiak USA and Muse Entertainment, has solidified its status as Syfy’s most successful winter scripted series launch in 6 years with a season-to-date average of 1.8 million viewers. It is also the channel's most female-skewing series ever, with women comprising 53% of its audience.

“Being Human has proven to be a winner for Syfy on all fronts,” said Syfy's president of original content Mark Stern. “Using the original format as inspiration, showrunners/writers Jeremy Carver and Anna Fricke – along with a superlative team of writers, cast, and production – have created an amazing, compelling series in its own right," said We can't wait to watch Aidan, Josh and Sally continue their struggle to be human in the second season!”....

The original has been renewed as well.

The acting and direction are pretty poor, the editing is sloppy, the actors all feel mis-cast, the music is distracting and the first several episodes were largely wasted, but the last few episodes have been tolerable distractions and I'm almost looking forward to seeing where it's going so I'm marginally grateful that the show has been renewed.

maybe it's b/c the first several episodes where almost word for word copies of the original. The last several have veered onto their own road.
