Last year, the UK version of Being Human was cancelled after five seasons. Now, Syfy has cancelled the US version after four seasons and 52 installments.
Here’s a press note from the cable channel:
With the second half of “Being Human’s” 4th season set to kick off, our human-at-heart characters are about to embark on a journey full of twists, turns and surprises that will culminate in a spectacular series finale on Syfy, Monday, April 7th.
Showrunner Anna Fricke and the talented producers, writers, cast and crew have done an amazing job bringing this show to life over the past four seasons and we sincerely thank them and the series’ production company Muse Entertainment for their hard work. They’ve saved the best for last with the final six episodes that revisit the story’s beginning, leading to a not-to-be-missed send-off for Aidan, Sally, Josh and Nora.
What do you think? Do you like this Syfy series? Do you think that Being Human should have been renewed for a fifth season?
I love being human and I am wondering what is happening at syfy that they are canceling being human and warehouse 13 which are great shows, but they keep all these ghost hunter and other reality shows. Big mistake.
Oh no! This is my second most favorite show, right after Walking Dead. All the coolest shows are those that wrap up the narrative of complex human responses and relationships inside a supernatural meat package. A vampire and werewolf form a mutual support alliance to help them stay on the wagon. In comes a ghost. Then comes vampire loves from WAAAAYYYY back in the past, girlfriends for the werewolf, witches, zombies, a werewife, the prospect of werebabies, Sally’s ongoing efforts to sort out her messy, witchy ghost experience…. As the series grows more fabulous, as the characters’ lives continue to… Read more »
I used to have Syfy on my TV all day every day, now the only time I turn it on is to watch Being Human. After the announcement that Warehouse 13 was cancelled I thought well at least they are keeping one good program on, other that the BS reality shows, wrestling & obnoxious mutated animal programming. I am devastated to hear that in the middle of a season, now all of the sudden, it will not be returning. WT*** SyFy are you purposely trying to kill your channel, or to completely remove a whole demographic of viewing audience? I… Read more »
I love this show. It has so many different characters. Wish they would keep it going. Will be sad to see this show to end.
I have been watching this show from the beginning. I really like the characters and will be sad to see them go. I like the shows that I can escape where real people act like idiots for a “reality” based show. I show is suppose to be a what would you do not this lets act rude and backstabbing for ratings.
I LOVE This show! I have watched since the beginning.
I can’t believe it’s ending. It’s one of the only shows that I make time
To watch. Sad 🙁
I think that this show is one of the greatest show ideas that has ever come along and that is is a shame that Syfy is ending it so soon. This show has a lot of potential, I mean werewolves and vampires. There are so many possibilities with a show about werewolves, Vampires, and Ghosts. I just started to get in to it and they are already going to end it so soon. You can’t just end a show when it is getting more interesting especially when it was good from the start. There aren’t many good tv series like… Read more »
The only show I currently watch on syfy. Sorry, make all the sharknados you want, I’m NOT tuning in.
I really love this show! Sad its ending 🙁
Might as well get used to Syfy canceling everything viewers want. Every time a program is liked and gets raves Syfy kills it after it has been on about 4 years. Like Sanctuary, now Warehouse 13 is going. Bet Haven will get it after it’s 5th season. May as well shut down that network since they kill the programs that people want to keep on while keep on junk that they want but not the viewers. Just shut it down now since they are committing suicide with their stupidity. Eureka was another fave of mine they axed after 4 seasons.… Read more »
I so agree with you! I can’t believe they keep doing it. I’m watching Helix now and am afraid they are going to cancel that too. But not after 4 seasons. Like now. The network really pisses me off. It used to be one of my favorites. Not anymore.
This season is certainly full of surprises and the characters are experiencing a great deal. I have enjoyed it immensely. I really like that it has been a very different take on the werewolf/vampire theme. I’ve never watched the UK version but love Sam Witwer as ‘Aidan’. It will be a shame to see it go.
This show really grew on me to the point of becoming very invested in the characters. I will miss this show a lot. It’s scary that the top shows are always cop shows, which stopped having original story lines about a decade ago. This show was fresh and engaging.
You gotta be kidding me… Stargates, Eureka and now this… I am officially out of shows to watch on SyFy
Try Helix. It is really good. Of course now they’ll probably cancel it since its a show I really like.
This is a show I really liked for what it was, though I thought last season might have been the last. The story line kinda wound down for a bit but they brought it back in an “ok” fashion. I could have seen one more season out of it before it ended.
I hate to say it, but I figured this might happen since Jeremy Carver left to take the helm of Supernatural (wonderfully done too). Being Human didn’t feel the same this season without him. Still a shame to see the show go, really going to miss Sam Witwer.
That’s why it sucked. Thanks. I didn’t know that until now.
