After a short run, Being Human ends its first season strong

It's almost impossible to fathom a six-episode run being a full season of a series, but in the case of Being Human, it is. Granted, it's a show that came from the UK, where shorter seasons are the norm. And yet, in only six episodes we got so much character and world development, it's amazing the installments didn't feel rushed.In those episodes, we learned a little bit about the world of ghosts, explored werewolves and uncovered a lot about the secret society of vampires plotting a mass conversion of humanity into their undead world. We also had time to become intimately familiar with our three main characters.
Saturday night saw the season finale of Being Human on BBC America. In it, we got the resolution to Mitchell's staking, Annie's decision about the door to the afterlife, and George's latest transformation, which saw him do something he'd so far managed to avoid.
