Look at me procrastinate! :)
Firstly, 'Being Human' starts on BBC America tomorrow, and NY Times has a v. good review. Two snippets:
Three young friends share a shabby apartment in Bristol, England, as well as secrets, and those sound like the set-up to a corny joke — a vampire, a ghost and a werewolf walk into a bar. Only in this case the bar is a pub and there is no punch line. [...]
All three characters are highly appealing, but the charm of the show lies in the delicate balance of engrossing drama and disarming humor; the series is not campy or self-conscious, it’s witty in an offhand, understated way.
If you haven't seen this show yet, do NOT miss it, it is EXCELLENT. (And - for the shallow amongst you - the vampire is hot.)
Secondly, An Exploding Cigar We Willingly Smoke, S/B/A done just right. Go indulge! :)
