I liked this episode as much as the pilot. I thought the pace would slow down (like it usually does after the pilot) but it didn't.
It also surprised me that it was funny at times
Why doesn't the episode have names?

Not naming the episodes are confusing. I've clicked on the wrong episode twice now, because the pilot is 1x01 and the second episode named Episode 1 is 1x02 and so on
Author: serena75    Time: 8-25-2009 05:32

Shouldn't there be a spoiler warning in the subject? Anyway, I couldn't believe the mother actually decided to turn her 12-year old son into a vampire. He'll be 12 forever and will never grow up. This will come back to haunt Mitchell in more ways than one, I'm sure of it.

What a great ending! Can't wait for the second season to start
It was interesting to see how George and Mitchell first met. And Annie got some powers now LOL

Yeah well i thought the ghost helping Annie to stop the door from taken her was good. George and his cage kind of backfired because he kept swearing uncontrollable afterwards.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-1-2010 12:09     Subject: Reply 8#8 bala's post

George was initially pleased with his new cage and tranquilizers but the side effects was strange and teaching the foreign students English swear words was funny. It was nice to see Annie master the gatekeepers door

This really is British humour at it's best, what does it really tell you, that people learn swear words before learning English.Are we really that bad?. I like variety of swear words he kept saying unintentionally instead typical one you hear. .

I can't believe we are half way through the season

2 Questions though:    Why are there only 6 episodes in the season?  So short.  So much info, but it ended bam!
                                          Does everyone in the UK actually drink that much TEA!  I mean seriously.  There are like 10 mugs per episode of tea.  HAHA

Seriously!  I never knew people drank that much tea.  I thought it was a myth! haha. okay then.  I mean I drink that must sweet iced tea, but hot....blah.

Budget reasons is good.  Is the BBC 3 not a very well watched channel?  Or Something like that?  Merlin is on BBC 1 and I noticed Being Human said it came on at 11.  I *assume* that's 11pm.  That's late.

It a digital channel who only available on freeview being human usually airs 10pm which is late but most UK show have short season .

For us it normal for series to have maximum 6-10 Episode per season.

Nice returning episode when Mitchell decides to try and rescue Annie and meets Lia and their time travel across Mitchell's history was interesting and the journey was worth it but Nina was great rescuing George from the police just before they changed

Nina and George were the stars this episode. George really wears his heart on the outside and I am so glad Nina got to him in time.  I guess Male and female Werewolves can change together   I wonder if we will have any werepups?

Adam was very crude for a 46 year old teenager and the girl in the arcade was lucky the first time they meet but how annoying would it be having a ghost talking to you while you are having a interview
Author: bala    Time: 1-31-2011 12:19     Subject: Episode 1

Well look like these are going to be short episodes. So after Adam left being human on a train, he decides to start school where he end up meeting a ghost and werewolf and has decided to help ghost move on. I have a feeling this isn't going to be as stright forward as Adam think it is.

On whole it wasn't a bad first episode
