The Amercans have some compelling dramas like Lost and Heroes, and one of the only successful British ones I had seen was Sugar Rush, that is until this fantastic series came along. Mixing fantasy, horror, comedy and drama all together, it sees three classic horror legends brought together in a present day environment. Basically werewolf George (Doctor Who's Russell Tovey, the only person from the original pilot), ghost Annie (Sugar Rush's Lenora Crichlow) and vampire Mitchell (Aidan Turner) live together and try to be like normal humans, but all have setbacks with their conditions. George is panicky (and really funny in being so) because of his transformation once a month, Annie is wanting to talk to and be seen by certain people but is invisible, and Mitchell is fighting his lust for blood as it is what has kept him alive for decades. Also starring Jason Watkins as Herrick, Dylan Brown as Seth, Annabel Scholey as Lauren, Sinead Keenan as Nina, Gregg Chillin as Owen and Sama Goldie as Janey. With fantastic performances, great writing and splendid special effects, this is definitely a series not to be missed. Very good!
