| Re: Torchwood on BBC I'm hooked! I just watched first season episode 1 - loved it! I'm not going to read anything else yet (because I am not ready to be spoiled ) but I am excited. Summer is a great time to get hooked on a new show.

Another convert! When I saw your name on this thread I though "Oh, shoot! I should have told her to stay out of the thread so she doesn't get spoiled." Believe me - don't read any spoilers. The show is much better that way!  The show is just so different from anything else on TV - it's odd, quirky, slightly cheesy, sexy, funny, a bit scary at times and touching too. Just so you know, the show gets even better in season 2! I LOVE Torchwood and I LURVE John Barrowman. He's sex on a stick.

| Re: Torchwood on BBC I am just finishing season one, but am wondering why there are only 5 episodes in season 3....... are they longer episodes or did they just do a shortened season?

 It was a very highly rated series for BBC, especially season 2, so a lot of fans were puzzled by the decision to do a mini-series instead of a regular season.

| Re: Torchwood on BBC Well, I've completed the first season and I love the fact that these are individuals with flaws. Most shows have their characters slightly imperfect, but the "hero" aspect dominates your awareness, so you don't notice the warts. Torchwood has more of a raw feeling to it. My favorite of this first season was #12 Captain Jack Harkness; had me bawling. My least favorite was perhaps the dead guy ghost geek #10 or 11 I think. I'm looking forward to season two, three and the new one when it airs!
