Brit TV series "Torchwood"

Much darker than Dr. Who with adult language and situations. The final (third) season however is a major step up. Only 5 episodes chronicling 5 days that, in my opinion, ranks with the best scifi around. Watch the first two seasons for fun, watch the last for some honest to god "wow". I think the single most compelling piece of evidence for global warming is that Fox News viewers think it's a hoax.

Problem was, they're used to Doctor Who, which does have a lead character, and Captain Jack Harkness is too big a character to easily sit in an ensemble cast. It too them most of the first season to fine-tune the balance. I didn't watch all of the fifth season, but what I did see was very good TV. Wade.

I watched it on HD Net (except for the 3rd season which was only on BBCA) and they left it intact. 4 season's going to be on Starz. Hopefully they don't cancel it like they did Party Down. http://www.tvovermin...says-davies/26916
