Why I'm refusing to watch Being Human.

In a new entry of "Amy is shallow" confessions:



...I don't want to watch this show because they made her the ghost.

G'wan, tell me it's awesome and that she kicks ass all the same and I shouldn't turn my back on it for that silly reason. I'm ready.

Or the werewolf! Either! Not the PASSIVE one.

(Like I say, I'm perfectly ready for someone to tell me she's not at all passive and that I shouldn't have judged.)

I never thought about it that way, but I definitely see where you're coming from. No argument from me, Amers.

It just makes me angry. A girl and two guys, a werewolf a vampire and a ghost, and they had to make the chick the least dangerous one. Way to stereotype.

Out of the three, it certainly seems the least exciting.

There is a horrible lack of female werewolves. I actually can't name one.

There is one in the show. She gets Plot and Angst and Deep Dark Secrets and Angry Rows. She ends up kinda more werewolf-like than werewolf-dude.

(I don't remember any of the names, as I haven't seen any actual episodes of this show in ages and ages.)

Just watch the original BBC series, same name, same plot, same story and they've done two seasons
