153. I agree. Before i even found out that they (supposedly) recast them to make the characters look younger, i always thought it was to do with ethnicity.

Diversification is a GOOD thing. Homgenous white-washed all-English cast on a programme broadcast by a corporation that is meant to reprisent the WHOLE of this country, which, if you hadn't noticed, contains a lot of people who are NOT white or English?
I'm GLAD, if that WAS their motive (although honestly, I think they just wanted to make the cast prettier and the diversity was a coincidence) that they did it. I'd RATHER that be their motive than upping the hotness factor of the cast.
Re: 153
(Anonymous) 2009-02-03 07:17 am (UTC)(link)And why is that a problem? Because the show ALREADY HAD AN ESTABLISHED AND WELL LIKED CAST! You do know the story behind the series, right? No. Then let me tell you. Back last February, BBC Three aired a few pilots and people were asked to choose which one they liked to see a series made from. Being Human got that slot. People wrote in not only because they liked the story but they liked the actors. To recast it because you want to add tokens is an insult to the fans of the show as well as to the new actors. No one would take you seriously as an actor if word got out that you were only hired to be window dressing.
Watch the pilot and the series. The show I wanted is not the show being aired. The chemistry between the original actors isn't there. The original Mitchell was an Edwardian style, androgynous fey who was a perfect foil for the other flatmates. The new one is a Top Shop Twilight reject who can't really act.
