It's not really the same situation. Fox doesn't get anything from the syndication rights for House, because NBC Universal actually owns the show. The only...
If (and whether pilots will be picked up are always a big if) it gets picked up, then unless they could arrange to shoot Torchwood while JB was on hiatus from...
You can only change a series concept so much before it becomes too alien to its own fan base. CoE was very blatantly written as a standalone movie or...
I agree, I really loved series 1 and 2 of Torchwood. C of E I barely got
through and, even though I watched MD to the end I won't be buying the dvds
or...
This!!! At this point, I think I'd like TW to return to Cardiff and it's original format. Perhaps with Andy. Or do a Dallas and make COE and MD some alien's...
I've noticed a lot of people mention that they liked COE and not season 1 and 2 and wished MD was more like COE COE had me peppering the screen of my TV with...
While I agree CoE ignored Torchwood's former "outside the government, beyond the police" stuff too easily, it felt more like a tweak than a complete betrayal...
Def series 1 & 2 for me. Story arcs and stand-alones. Perfect. Catzy ... From: torchwood@yahoogroups.com [mailto:torchwood@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Daren...
Actually, it's cheaper than DW. MD is $39. DW is usually around $70 for region 1. (Let's not get into a boring discussion on buying it in the UK rather than...

Okay, I'm going to put my two cents in: I thought Seasons 1 and 2 of Torchwood were pretty darn good, and Children of Earth brought to mind the 1960's film...
The problem is, as I noted earlier, that CoE was very blatantly written as a separate mini-series with Torchwood just tacked on. Let us not forget that...
Wow you hit all the nails on the head and you even got a few I missed :) I do think your right though CoE does really "feel" like it was something RTD had...
Well, from comments from many parts of Torchwood and Doctor Who fandom along with those 'in the know' - RTD has never been all *that* enamoured with Jack [or...
Loved this email. Reminded me of a lot of things I'd conveniently forgotten, but you almost have to do this in the Whoniverse. However, this sentence: "Maybe...
Ok, so RTD doesn't want to do Torchwood anymore, at least that's the
impression. Torchwood is a copyright and owned product of the BBC isn't it? It doesn't...
I completely agree with you Pfyre. I have become so tired of Gwen always blaming Jack for everything. When does she take responsibility for anything? She's...
Jack is Torchwood, he pulled Gwen into the fold, not the other way around. Supporting characters are there to support, not take over and demean the
leader of...
You're preaching to the choir. Unfortunately we are not the choir director nor the series creator. All through the series Gwen has demeaned and belittled Jack...
Jack, with his power of seeming immortality, is effectively a superhero. He needs someone or something to be accountable to or he'll turn into a monster...
Old Glory, by all means, sneaky and powerful. Oh please, let it be so! Although Ianto's absence will still leave a gaping hole in my appreciation of TW. Jean...
Ummm....you do realize that there are other people working for Torchwood besides Gwen right? Indeed, the writers actually sort of ruined the whole "Gwen is the...
Thank you! You raise some really excellent points about Jack by the way. The glaring absence of UNIT left me with a mental image of the Valiant flying off with...
I was going back to your original post about how Jack's immortality made him a "superhero", and technically he wasn't immortal for most of MD, which meant that...
What made her a natural leader was then when circumstances happened in which she had to lead, she did. RTD is interested in powerful female characters who...
