Series Premiere: January 17
This January, Syfy debuts its newest original scripted series “Being Human.” At times witty, dramatic, frightening, and romantic, the series explores what it means to be human through the eyes of supernatural outsiders who share both their secrets and a Boston brownstone.
“Being Human” stars Sam Witwer (“The Mist,” “Battlestar Galactica,” “Smallville”) as Aidan; Meaghan Rath (“Prom Wars,” “18 to Life”) as Sally; Sam Huntington (“Superman Returns,” “Fanboys”) as Josh, and Mark Pellegrino (“Supernatural,” “Lost”) as Bishop. The season consists of 13 one-hour episodes.
Aidan (Witwer) was a Revolutionary War soldier who sacrificed himself to vampires to spare his men. Now, over 200 years later, he is still struggling to escape the orbit of his powerful mentor in Bishop (Pellegrino). Josh (Huntington) was a promising medical student forced to abandon his family and future after a werewolf attack left him cursed. And Sally (Rath), once happily engaged before her tragic death, must now figure out how to move on as a ghost.
As Aidan, Josh and Sally learn that there are fates worse than death, they also realize that there”s more to life — and the afterlife — than most “normal” humans could ever imagine.
