Actor Russell Tovey, who plays lovable werewolf George on BBC 3's hit series Being Human, has just announced he's leaving the popular British sci-fi series.

January's going to be huge for Syfy as the channel kicks off 2012 with a whole lot of big premieres, including the second season of the hit show, Being Human and the premiere of the succubus thriller, Lost Girl. We'll also get the fourth season of Merlin, and the premieres of a host of reality shows this winter, including the new series, Monster Man.

In the space of a weekend we go from two Being Humans to zero Being Humans as Syfy's version finishes its first season tonight (and BBC America ended its third season last Saturday). But the big news is that HBO's Game of Thrones finally premieres, and Sanctuary's back with its midseason premiere.

There's some promising originals to look forward to with Fringe, which heads back Over There as Bolivia (aka Fauxlivia) finds herself in big trouble, and with BBC America's Being Human, which explores werewolf cage matches.
