AMERICAN TORCHWOOD
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Huge news for sci-fi fans: Fox is developing a stateside version of the U.K. hit series “Torchwood.”
A non-heteronormative sci-fi series on Fox? Wow, this is destined for success!
The project is from BBC Worldwide Prods., with original series creator Russell Davies writing the script.
And so is this!
“Torchwood” is about a covert group that investigates and fights alien activity.
COVERT. ADORABLE.
And I know the previews for "Torchwood" can look silly. Trust me, it's terrific. Like "24" with aliens
But isn't Jack Bauer actually competent?
Unlike U.S. adaptations that have gone awry, “Torchwood” fans can take comfort that the original producing team is on board.
...comfort?
Also, some of the current cast — most likely John Barrowman, who plays the immortal Capt. Jack Harkness — might star if Fox orders “Torchwood” to pilot.
Ok, that might be a LITTLE awesome.
As for the new show’s plot, the U.S. version will contain a global story line compared to the more localized sensibility of the first two BBC seasons.
More... epic, perhaps?
In conclusion: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Re: WTF?
Date: 2010-01-21 12:24 pm (UTC)I shudder at the thought of what could make things worse re: Torchwood, but given that we're talking about FOX, the results could be terrifying. Who knows how many more disturbing and/or failtastic themes they could uncover?
