* OvertookTheManga: The original Being Human had very short seasons thanks to British Brevity. As a cable show, the US Being Human has shorter seasons than a network primetime series, but it's still way more than six episodes. As such, what begins as a fairly straight adaptation quickly develops a lot of new material.

Also, the US version not having the entire original cast decide to bail means the UK and US versions are now very different shows.
