Fox has purchased the rights to Torchwood.
They will FUCK IT UP.

CBS bought the rights to the one BBC show staring Patrick Stewart and they fucked it up.

There can only be 1 Captain Jack!

1. They will certainly remove any scrap of gay storyline.
In the middle of season 2 right now, loving it (just finished Meat). Sigh.

2. That's weird. Then again, I lost interest in the real one after season two.

3. Fox will air it on Friday nights and then cancel it after 12 episodes
There is a 85% chance this will happen.

5. There WILL only be one Captain Jack.
As I understand it, Barrowman is signed on to the American version.

Russel T Davies (the creator of the series) is writing.

I'll reserve judgement on it.
