With the vampires still wanting to strike and The Old Ones on their way, Annie and her two new housemates - Tom and Hal - find themselves in the middle of the struggle.

Meanwhile Annie taking on the role of mother to baby Even invites werewolf Tom to live with her and the baby in the hopes of trying to get things back to normal for them. What none of them know is that Eve from the future has become a ghost to go to the past for some unknown reason. Trying everything in her power to figure out a prophecy laid out by the first vampires eons ago.
As the mystery of Eve's future unravels something strange comes to there doorsteps. A vampire named Hal who has lived with a werewolf named Leo and a Ghost named Pearl. Together the three of them have kept Hal from drinking blood for over fifty-five years and things have been going well that is until Leo's old age is affecting him. For turning into a werewolf has taken its toll on Leo and one more transformation could very well kill him. That is until Leo receives a strange message about a baby that could help them all.
As this all happens a former friend of Hal's has taken over the task of preparing for the arrival of The Old Ones. Vampires who have lived longer then recorded history lead by a vampire named Mr. Snow. For they want the Eve as well for reasons only they know.
Will these new supernatural's be able to get along? Will Eve be able to save the future before its too late? And what of the Old Ones what are there plans for all this? You'll just have to check out Being Human Series Four to find out.
If you have watched the last 3 years of this program you of course have doubts as to how it could possibly go on with so many changes, believe me it works. This is a new day with new problems and believable characters which are brilliantly acted. There's a surprise around every corner, I can't wait for next week.
As to why buy it now and here, well... I tried watching on our American version of the station that runs it, talk about disappointing! We yanks are amazing, show body parts and violence but say a "naughty" word and it just can't be done! This program I watched the day after airing uninterrupted and in it's entirety! What a pleasure. I highly recommend viewing this show through Amazon Streaming, came through crystal clear on my computer I didn't even need the HD version, can't wait for next week. Costs less than a cup of coffee per episode!
The show gets a 5 star from me for being creative and well done...shockingly well done. Amazon gets 5 stars for offering a fabulous service in a timely manner delivered to so many of my devices , well it's a go for this viewer. Enjoy season 4 of Being Human UK and enjoy watching it thru Amazon.com!
One of my all-time favorite TV shows was called Northern Exposure. Rob Morrow's character, Dr. Joel Fleishman, transitioned out at the end of the 4th season. Apparently, Rob Morrow wanted to move on to a movie career. Northern Exposure was an example of a show that could not survive the loss of its central character. In the case of Being Human, the characters central to the show were written in a way where we understood there were no other options. They had to go. As a viewer, we realized this and accepted it as a reality of that world. Transitions can be very tough when you become so invested in certain characters. The writers of Being Human were smart about this. They introduced new central characters early on, which allowed the viewer to create new attachments.
On my three previous Being Human reviews, I compared Season 1 through 3 of the US and British versions. The third and the fourth season had very few similarities. I liked that because both versions stood alone. It's very difficult to say which one is the better of the two. I'm going to go out on a limb and commit myself. The British version is extremely intense. It its environment and dialogue feels more real world. I really like the US version but the blue ribbon goes to the British Being Human. At least, that's what I think.
Buy this so you don't have to hope it comes back around on BBC America or however you catch BBC shows, and so you can watch it again if you miss any of the story points.

This is not really a jumping on point, so new viewers should start with season one.
Regular viewers, read on.
Minor spoilers do follow. But you'll get those from the front and back of the box anyhow.
This season changes the line up. As you can see from the box cover. Time has passed between the series three finale and the start of this one. During which time a major event has happened offscreen. That does feel a bit jarring at first. But the length of the episode does mean you have more than come to terms with it by the end.
Annie is faced with having to bring up the Werewolf baby on her own. But manages to form a new family to replace her old one. Tom, the young werewolf from series three becomes a regular character. Then there's new housemate Hal. A five hundred year old vampire. Posh. Uptight. Obsessive compulsive. And hiding from his horrible past.
Living normal lives and bringing up baby Eve won't be easy. Hal and Tom don't initially get on whatsoever. Someone is trying to expose the existence of werewolves. And the old ones are on their way...
How you react to the changes is going to be a matter of opinion. But if you're prepared to accept them, then they're fine. Hal is a great character, an individual in his own right and totally different in many ways from Mitchell. He and Tom do, over the course of the season, make a great double act. And both characters do develop really well.
Annie is a solid centre to the whole thing, because she is having to bear a lot of responsibility.
There are individual storylines complete in a single part once again. Some of which are very good indeed. There's some really good black comedy at times. Some excellent guest characters. And a season long main plot that develops nicely and doesn't go the way you might expect.
The eighth episode doesn't really have the budget to do the big scale thing it could have been. So it has to get by on character moments. As a result of which, you won't forget the last few minutes in a hurry. These wok because they do bring an end to all that has come so far, and point the show off in a new direction as well. Said last episode also does grab thanks to an amazingly good guest star turn from Mark Gatiss.
A strong season. Which is no mean feat considering what it had to do. And a really good watch.
Some may wish to watch out for flashing images in episodes five and seven.
The dvd has the following language and subtitle options:
Languages: English.
Subtitles; English.
There are the following extras:
Disc one has a four minute long trailer which recaps the events of the first three series.
Plus three five minute long prologues to this series. Hal. Tom. The Old Ones. All need to be watched. Ideally before episode one.
Disc two has interviews with the three main cast members, plus Russell Tovey, the producer, and the show's creator. All these run from six to nine minutes in length, and are very good watching.
Disc three has six featurettes, all about various aspects of the series and how they were produced:
Toby's guide. Two minutes long, and a brief introduction to part of the main plotline. So it could ideally be watched pre episode one.
Goodbye Russell.
The Fall of George.
Adam Returns.
Allison.
The museum.
These run from three to seven minutes. All are interesting and good viewing.
There's also seven minutes worth of deleted scenes. These can only be watched all in a row. And it's worth doing that.
