Torchwood is still very popular, and I'd love to see it go on for a long time and continue to be the awesome show that it is.

Especially since Dr Who is also truncated. So it's not like they're pressed for time. Is it because Barrowman is too busy being the "nice" Simon Cowell judging potential Josephs & Marias?

I can never remember which is which. The audio plays are good timewasters, but not great drama. Just enough to quell a Torchwood jones.

Boo hoo. That is not nearly enough Capt. Jack Harkness for my tastes. I sure do hope it comes back for more seasons. I really love this show.

But if I'm correctly interpreting the cast list from IMDb for the final 2 Dr Whos -- to be shown Christmas Day & New Year's Day, when NewWho takes over -- Cap'n Jack will be in the episodes. So we'll get a little view there as well. Still not enough.

Highly suspenseful, excellent character insights. We really can't speak openly about it here? Who knows when it will air here in the US! And I don't even know how to do those spoiler plus sign thingies!

I'd much rather not download anything that could make this piece of shit of a computer ANY slower. :P Series 3 apparently starts airing on BBC America on July 20th. Which my cable refuses to allow us to view. Motherfuckers.

The cliffhanger was awesome. There's torrents everywhere for it. It'll be on BBC America starting July 20th, Monday thru Friday. ETA: Doh! Sorry Timmy. I have an old computer, too, but utorrent works pretty well on it. It barely uses any resources. Any other torrent program, forget it.

BBCA has been heavily promoting it. Plus it will be day 1 of BBCA going HD. They even had a "sneak preview" during Primeval. It's highly anticipated and only 2 weeks away. So PLEASE don't speak about it openly. kthx.

I think you're gonna have a hard time avoiding discussion of it, DG. You could just stay out of the thread until you've watched it, just to be on the safe side.

Posts: 629 (07/07/09 12:51 AM) Registered user Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	Okay, then. I'll stay off the thread for the next few weeks. This is one I really don't want spoiled. I'm even thinking of getting all 5 episodes on DVR and then watching in a marathon over the weekend, so for sure I was planning on staying off the thread once it started. AND the whole week is capped off by the Planet of the Dead episode from Dr Who on Sunday, 7/26. I'm weak with anticipation! I'll be back to read all the comments once I've watched it all.

I can't wait to watch it on my great TV in HD and am going to hold out the 2 weeks or so before it airs on BBCA. I'll be back to post comments then.
