Bwah. Being Human is one of those shows that always leaves me breathless. I always approach the show in three parts, since there's three Protagonists and little else in between. Also these reviews are spoilerish, you have been warned.
1. Sally: I find Sally kinda boring. I dont know, maybe its just that I dont think Ghosts work that way or something...but if Sally gets another chance to go through her door I wont mind. I can deal with the Josh and Aidan show. So in this episode Sally's mom died. It was awkward. The whole thing was awkward. Add Josh to the mix? More awkward. That's all.
2. Josh: Last episode, Josh's girlfriend Nora and the pure-bred Werewolf Twins (who I will only call the Twins) killed Nora's abusive Ex. So Josh has to deal with that. Of course, Josh really didnt have anything to do with it, but of course, the cops from stereotypeland dont care. Josh is connected to Nora, so Josh must have something to do with it. Not much to say here except that Josh is so much fun when he decides to do something. I love awkward Josh but I ADORE confident Josh, especially when he's still being awkward when he does it. So anyways, after Aidan brushed him off, Josh decided to approach new vamp cop Cecilia...too bad she didnt know anything about Nora's case until Josh brought it up and now he's got himself a whole ball of complicated on his hands.
This is kinda awesome tho. Early in the episode Josh reveals that he has Hegeman's gun. If either the Vamps or the Cops find it on him, things will be bad. So all Josh has to do is plant the gun on the Twins, and when Cecilia drags them back to the Vamp Heads...well, who will look at poor awkward Josh and his girlfriend? Of course, this still gives Cecilia leverage over Josh, but we'll save that for another day.
I'd also like to point out that Nora makes zero appearances during this entire episode.
So yeah. Go Josh! Also, there was awkward Lasagna and a weird mean cop flash thing. I dont like those cops.
3. Aidan: Oh Aidan, you really are the reason I watch this show. Not only is Aidan awesome, but his actor, Sam Witwer, is a Star Wars geek (and the voice of Starkiller and The Son, both Star Wars characters...The Son is the living embodiment of the Dark-Side of The Force). So yeah, I love Aidan, and he didnt disappoint tonight.
First, we get HeadBishop! Why did they kill Bishop in the first season? He was such a great character and it seems like such a shame to take him out of play so early in the shows existence. Luckily, Bishop is back in the form of a vision had by Aidan. According to HeadBishop, this is not new for Aidan; but I like this idea, it reminds me of Farscape and HeadScorpius...except HeadBishop is more like those little good angel/bad angel things you see in cartoons. We also get flashback Bishop. Hopefully there will be lots of those if HeadBishop doesnt last.
So Aidan's dealing with relapsing his live drinking problem...which isnt really a problem for any Vamp except Aidan. This gave us a really fun, drunk Aidan episode...well, when Aidan is at home and trying to ignore HeadBishop.
Then there's Aidans other little problem. Henry, Aidan's "son". Henry got banished in last weeks flashback, and now he's back, and its bad for everyone. Except maybe the Orphans, but they're screwed already so...yeah. We got a fun little flashback to 1918, where Aidan introduces Bishop to his newely made "Son" as they get off the boat in their adorable WWI uniforms. Ah Aidan, ever the loyal soldier ^_^. Then we come back to the present, where Aidan and Henry have an awesome fight and Aidan wins, but doesnt kill Henry, cause he still loves him. I wouldnt trust Henry tho, and Bishop backs me up. Hmmm, I guess thats all I got for Aidan. He's gonna try to get Henry back into the Vamp family, but I dont see that going down to well.
Thats the end of the review!
I just want to add that I really like Surin. I wasnt sure about her at first, but I look forward to where she might go. She wasnt in this episode, I just thought I'd share it with you.
So another great episode that leaves me going Dude! Oh, and this show has such awesome music, check out the syfy.com page where they show you the playlist episode by episode when you get the chance.
I also watched 'The Amazing Race' episode 1, but I'm not gonna review it.
Dont know what I'm watching tomorrow, but it might be Glee or White Collar.
