Summary: Not to be missed - Sci-Fi for adults
Comment: Torchwood is one of the biggest surprises in Sci-Fi to come along in a long while. If you like shows like Firefly or Dr. Who, then you'll get a big kick out of Torchwood.
Torchwood reminds me alot of the comic, "Batman and the Outsiders" - about a team of flawed super-heroes who spend more time fighting their own personal demons than super-villians. The protagonists in Torchwood don't have any super powers (except for Capt. Jack Harkness who can't die) but they all have alot of emotional baggage and relationship issues. Throw in some Doctor Who atmosphere and the result is a real winner.
Torchwood is funny, deep, heartfelt and sexually provocative; sometimes all at the same time. A truly remarkable achievement. The best part: there will never be a lame American TV version of the show, due to the sexual exploits of the characters in the show.
Getting this DVD is a no-brainer..

Summary: Torchwood -Season 1
Comment: Totally Awesome series. We rented the series and fell in love with it and had to buy it as it is one you can watch over and over. The only thing I might caution anyone on is unlike American television the BBC shows are not censored like ours are so you will see some risque stuff. The characters are wonderful and the acting is amazing and it was just a huge bonus that it's a spin off from Doctor Who (The greatest series of ALL TIME!!!) I really recommend the show if you are a Who fan or even just a regular sci-fi fan.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Some day soon...
Comment: I'm looking forward to seeing this series -- when the price drops -- so I may have to wait! At $25, I'll seriously think about it! At $20, I'm sold!

Separate from the government outside the police beyond the United Nations Torchwood sets its own rules. Led by the enigmatic ever watchful Captain Jack Harkness the Torchwood team delves into the unknown and fights the impossible. Everyone who works for Torchwood is young. Some say that?s because it?s a new science. Others say it?s because they die young.Running Time: 650 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 794051420527 Manufacturer No: E4205
