1* ActorAllusion:
2** Kyle Schmid stars as [[Series/BloodTies2007 a vampire named Henry]].
3** When Aidan swings an iron poker to disperse [[spoiler: Sally]], he holds it in a ReverseGrip the way [[VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed Starkiller]] holds a lightsaber.
4* ActorSharedBackground: Sally is revealed to have Indian ancestry, as Creator/MeaghanRath does.
5* [[CaliforniaDoubling Canada Doubling]]: The series is set in Boston, but shot in Montreal. Oddly enough, a flashback in late Season 1 is ''set'' in Montreal in the '70s.
6* CastIncest: Creator/TracySpiridakos and Jon Cor play twin brother and sister werewolves on ''Being Human'', and got engaged in 2012.
7%%It's available on AMC+ as of 2021. Re-add the tropes below if this changes.* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Unlike the first three seasons, season four never saw a home media release. Since the series is no longer on Creator/{{Netflix}}, the only way to watch the show's last thirteen episodes is digitally buying them on Amazon or iTunes.
8%%* MissingEpisode: A missing ''season'' in this case. As mentioned above, the fourth season was never released on DVD, and after the series was pulled from Netflix, it isn't available on any streaming platform. The only way to watch it is to purchase a digital copy of it from Amazon or iTunes.
9* FakeAmerican: The show is set in Boston, but filmed in Montreal, along with being a US-Canada co-production. Some American main characters such as Sally are played by Canadians as a result (in her case, Creator/MeaghanRath).
10* OvertookTheManga: The original Being Human had very short seasons thanks to BritishBrevity. 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.
11* RealLifeRelative:
12** Creator/JesseRath, the actor that plays Sally's brother in the sixth episode of Season 3, is Creator/MeaghanRath's brother in real life, though it's worth noting he's played by [[TheOtherDarrin a completely different actor]] in the pilot episode.
13** The little boy and girl that portrayed [[spoiler: Josh and Nora's children Aidan and Sally]] are Sam Huntington's children Charlie and Audrey.
14* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to an interview with Sam Witwer, the show could have continued into a fifth season, but it would've had heavy budget cuts, hence the decision was made to end with season 4.
15* Jeremy Carver, one of the executive producers and co-creators for the US version, was a writer for ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' during season three through season five.
