For those Torchwood fans...it's back on Starz or Xfinity.tv if you prefer.

Season 1 Ep. 1 now available on Xfintity.

Synopsis: Torchwood has been closed down...everyone is dead but Gwen and she is in hiding with hubby and a new baby.

Suddenly, people stop dying. All over the world and Capt. Jack wakes up and is ...

Tune in...
 
Oh yes! We've already watched eps 1 and 2 -- yay for On Demand! Good stuff. Loved the CIA agent at the airport, after the fight.

I've only seen Ep1, don't have Starz on cable but I can watch on Xfinity.tv for free! :D
 
Episode 2 aired Saturday here but I haven't seen it yet. Episode 1 was brilliant. And I'm not even all that fond of Gwen. :rolleyes:
 
I've seen the first two episodes too. You can see Starz influance in more than casting. They sure enjoyed using helicopters. :) It's a good show now, once the cast and crew gel, it will be great. :heart:

Oh, bummer. I thought it'd be up since it aired on Friday.

I think there is a weeks delay on xfinity, I'll keep an eye out for it. :cool:

ETA: Ep 2 just went up...watching it now!

ETA: Damn! You need to be a Starz customer to see it.

Oh no. :(

I have to say that Bill Pullman, who's one of my favorite actors anyway, has been just fantastic in this.
 
I watched the first episode of the season thinking Chiwetel Ejifor was in it, but it was Mekhi Phifer, and then I noticed it was probably a Dr Who spinoff and quickly lost interest.

It is a spin off from a long time ago.
 
In the UK we've just had episode 1, number 2 hits the screens on Thursday. Nice to know we're not that far behind you guys for once!

That I didn't know existed. I thought I had heard the name before, but figured I was hearing advanced word of something being ported over from another medium such as books like Game of Thrones was. You see, I tend to zone out when people start talking about Dr Who, as I really don't care one bit about the show.

Torchwood is way different from Dr Who. Much darker, most times. I believe "Torchwood" was what they called the Dr Who tapes -- it's an anagram -- some time ago as a security measure. Still, the tone is far different.

I understand your feelings toward Dr. Who--it is definitely an acquired taste for Americans. I found the previous incarnations of the show entirely unwatchable. The last seven seasons have been very entertaining, however.

Torchwood is a spin-off, now in it's fourth season. It is, in my opinion, a much better show. Before dismissing this season entirely, do yourself a favor and watch season three, Torchwood: Children of the Earth. My wife cannot stand Dr. Who, but she enjoyed Children of the Earth immensely. Its only five hours, so check it out. If you are a science fiction fan, you might like it.

I love both the classic and new DW's, but agree it's an acquired taste. I figure I was predisposed to like it since my grandmother's from England. ;)

Children of the Earth was terrific, and I second the recommendation.

Did they give him a fake chin? If they didn't, poor Billy Boy is looking rough.

I suppose they might have, but no matter -- I think this is one of his best performances. Besides, didn't Nicole Kidman win an Oscar for wearing a fake nose? :) (Kidding, kidding.)

I tried to remember but I'm not sure I've ever seen Pullman play a bad guy.
