TORCHWOOD airs tomorrow night in America. When does it air over there?

Ended a fair while ago here, season 2 starts in January, apparently.

Edit: Just thought, I'm assuming you'd get it on BBC:Merkin? It might be heavily cut (due to the totally pointless faaabulous scenes and such all over the place.

It may be worth sweeping for that reason (or it may be massively improved)

I know, I did watch it first time round on UK TV, I was just being slightly sarcastic.

Also, MOH:A is shite?

Bugger, reckon it's worth a sweep though?

And Robin Hood. Except that's not even barely watchable.

One of the worst pieces of television the BBC has ever produced. It makes me sad to see how far they have fallen. Remember the days when British TV was the best, and people looked down their noses at what the US produced? Long gone are those days.

Oh, I rather liked the first season of Robin Hood, was something to watch while eating when I got in from work on a Saturday.

Life on Mars is pretty good I thought.

I quite liked the ones I saw.
I'll probably watch Ashes to Ashes is a similar fashion.

I really enjoyed both series, I bought the box set of the first, and still have all of the second on the HDR.

hmm...Robin Hood and Jekyll were quite entertaining to me...not great...but quite enjoyable and a nice retreat from the american crap.

Torchwood on the other hand...seemed too american to me...especially with Tom Cruise in it...
