Complete UK Being Human TV Series – Season 1 to 5, in a 12 disc DVD box set – over 34 hours of content!
Features all episodes from the first to fifth series of the BBC comedy drama about three very unusual housemates. They could be any group of 20-somethings sharing a house. But these friends carry their own strange and dark secrets – they each live a supernatural life as a werewolf, a vampire, or a ghost…
Though desperate to live as normal young people, their paranormal qualities cast more than just a shadow over their everyday lives. Being human is anything but easy – try holding down a career or dating when there are unwelcome intruders in your supernatural life, power struggles in the underworld and the constant threat of exposure.
Over five gripping, witty and sexy series, the housemates battle with their own demons as well as confronting terrifying forces threatening the whole of human society.

Reviews for Being Human TV show
“Somehow scary and funny and sexy all at once. A Being Human specialty.” TV Guide (season 3)
“When I first popped this show in, I thought it was a bad joke quickly cobbled together to take advantage of the current craze for nice vampires. A couple of episodes in however I realized that I was wrong and that Being Human was a well-crafted, carefully thought out show…this is a great show to get lost in. Highly Recommended.” DVD Talk (season 1)
“Being Human is not just a great series, but continues to evolve into something special that will likely be remembered for years to come.” DVD Verdict (season 3)
“Darkly funny, deeply affecting and utterly cockeyed, a work that celebrates life by dwelling on death.” Miami Herald (season 1)
“All three characters are highly appealing, but the charm of the show lies in the delicate balance of engrossing drama and disarming humor; the series is not campy or self-conscious, it’s witty in an offhand, understated way.” New York Times (season 1)
“Between the new villains' gleeful appetite for destruction and Kate Bracken's way of detonating a wisecrack, its last season shows promise of being a wild ride.” AV Club (season 5)
“I like my genre shows with oddball humor, and Being Human hits that spot well. It reminded me more of other British dramedies—a la New Tricks (Hal seems like the vampire counterpart to Brian Lane, and Annie's exhortations to her "boys” sometimes echo Sandra Pullman, although that series is more densely plotted)—than of science-fiction shows. I like science-fiction, but I suspect even people who wouldn't care for The X-Files might want to stop at Annie's B&B." DVD Verdict (season 4)
‘Being Human looks great…warm, witty, sexy, and – as its title hints, very human’ – The Guardian, UK
“The mix of humor and horror is unparalleled, and the bonds of friendship between these supernatural denizens feel authentic.” Boston Herald (season 3)
“Whatever deeper meanings one might extrapolate, the show's approach proves refreshingly unpretentious and a great deal of fun, playfully exploring the mythologies surrounding ghosts, vampires and werewolves.” Variety (season 1)
“Being Human: Season 2 is a winner, picking up almost literally where Season One left off, this season expanded beautifully on the series' foundation, cranked up the tension, and introduced a host of new characters both good and bad.” DVD Verdict (season 2)
“What's happening on camera is as powerfully, provocatively entertaining as ever.” TV Guide (season 4)
