in the 2008 bbc3 supernatural dramedy "being human", the moment of passing from life to death is depicted as a personalised door appearing in front of a character to symbolise moving on from their experience of dying and progress to the afterlife. a central theme of annie sawyer's character is that she will help other characters make peace and look for their door but then refuse to walk through her own. meanwhile for mitchell it is a recurrent theme that he will stand in front of an open door and look back, while george is defined by the fact that he spends three whole seasons trying not to acknowledge the door at all. if we map this visual metaphor for all three characters' ways of (not) acknowledging death onto the ancient greek tale of orpheus and euridyce we will find that all three of them take turns embodying the role of the lost lover and the seeker in turn. in this essay, i will

Guess who's just started watching being human.
George and Mitchell have definitely made out a few thousand times- Annie's probably watched. Or taken part.
They're definitely a polycule though.

JOHN MITCHELL, GEORGE SANDS, ANNIE SAWYER, and NINA PICKERING from BEING HUMAN
Justification:
"Sometimes, a family is a ghost, a pregnant werewolf, a werewolf baby daddy, and an asexual vampire. Annie and Mitchell are very sweet, yes. George and Nina are incredibly sweet, yes. But Annie and Nina have a connection you can only have after being with your werewolf girlfriend for her first first full moon, and George and Mitchell love each other more than anything in the world (George's daughter excluded). Christ, their last words to each other were "I'm doing this because I love you" "I know" ??? They mirrored one of the most iconic heterosexual romance scenes in cinematic history with two men and thought we would think it was platonic?? No. They're all dating and they're living happily ever after in their stupid Hawaiian B&B and nothing bad ever happened to any of them" - Anonymous

#being human uk#THEE season finale of all time#john mitchell#george sands#annie sawyer#really appreciating this time around the minor theme of george being the only living person in this house#the only one with a future who mitchell is fighting tooth and nail to protect#even as he fails to protect himself#and even as george goes off to save them without them knowing#that reversal in which he is the closest thing to human between the three of them and so he will become a monster to save them#poetic cinemon#george constantly saying over and over that he will never have a normal life#all the while clinging to normalcy

actually george is kind of iconic for pulling the classic gay "we should run away together" trope w mitchell in all three series finales
in s1 he is actually using it as a bargaining technique w herrick, not even mitchell himself, to suggest that herrick lets them run away together in return for not standing in his way
in s2 he literally, actually pulls it off and runs away w mitchell and nina to the countryside after annies death and they spend the whole time being absolutely miserable w the guys up to their eyeballs in denial about the bt20 massacre and nina going full pepe silva mode about lucy. id call it the most miserable polycule constellation in the whole show but i genuinely think, even compared to this, early s4 was true rock bottom so i wont
and ofc in s3 during the vow renewal/assisted suicide showdown we have the first(?) on screen scene where george actually talks w mitchell about it!!! sadly at this point the dream of running away together has proven to be slightly. suboptimal in practice so the emphasis is more on the running away part than the togetherness of it all but it is real to me bc we all know georges neurotic codependent ass would always check in on his favourite pet mass murderer! "what if u ran away? to scotland <3" - "i'd kill people in scotland </3" u will always be famous
#being human uk#literally the british 'come to gusu w me'.... george being like ok what if we all collective forget ur a serial killer and then we hide u ♡#he wants to keep that greasy bastard in his life so so bad and the thing is that they both know better and always want to say yes anyway!#george sands#john mitchell#being human#georgemitchell#literally [1.06 flashback mitchell voice] youre gonna have to leave. theyre gonna come back. they always do#but it is george trying again and again and again to take that fucker away with him and find a new place to call home#sorry for the influx of bh posts the last few days its just that its dark by 16.30 now and i have been going insane u understand#cavetext

I’m watching being human for the first time and I’m on the season one final “but there was this” ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! The supernatural is a metaphor for love actually.
