Torchwood: The Complete First Season (DVD)

Probably the best show on TV. Even though the disc's freeze up in some spots, it's worth it. The acting and writing are surperb. I would recommend this product to anyone who enjoys sci-fi.

I fell in love with this show after discovering it was a spin-off of the new Doctor Who (which I only discovered last year!). I *heart* Captain Jack so much and I was really glad to see him again! The characters are wonderfully written and the actors really know how to act their socks off. Russell T. Davies really knows how to create a great show. Kudos to him! I'd recommend this series to anyone who is a fan of Doctor Who, but likes something a little darker. It's not for children, though. Adults who like the Sci/Fi genre would probably enjoy Torchwood. Go buy it! lol

Another terrific series from the BBC. It may be a spin off from Doctor Who, atleast they introduced Captain Jack Harkness to us.

I loved this series from the very first episode and lost satalite in the middle of the series so I rented it from netflix and decided that I had to own it so I could watch it all ther time. The episodes really lead you to the 13th and the last 2 really tear you up!!! and who knew Captain Jack(?) could sing like that....Love him and the show. IT IS FOR ADULTS ONLY though. I'm not sure anyone under 21 could understand it the way it is meant to be interpreted..But I highly recommend it to adults who love scifi...It definately has a different slant.

well i had to choose something else with creatures in it seems the writer strike and that supernatural might go bye bye so i watch couple episodes of torchwood and found out it is almost exactly like super natural instead there are no two brothers in it it is a team going after these creatureand it is alot cheaper on walmart then best buy by far

This is such an outstanding show and I can't for the life of me why people say it's adult. The current age range watching this show is ages 16 to early 30's mostly Buffy fans. The show is a more grown up version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer exit demons and what not and insert aliens. There is not a whole lot of quote un-quote adult content in it. Infact there is no more than currently in the shows teenages watch now. And three cheers for John Barrowman as a very flexable superhero breaking the flamboyant man sterotypes in this awesome role as Captain Jack Harkness. Gareth David Lloyd shines in all his loveliness in Countrycide and is a very pressing figure in season two. Liked it so much that I'm also getting season two and three when they put out it's box set as well.

I got interested in this show just before the 2nd season started airing so I decided to get a copy of the 1st season on DVD so I could get caught up. I do have to admit that I was surprised to discover they put the 1st season on 7 discs when there were only 13 episodes for the entire season. Most of my other shows on DVD have 22 episodes a season and are on only 6 discs.

The Torchwood series is very well made. It's by the producer of the current Dr Who series. It has it all, Sci-Fi, a little violence, a little inuendo'. One must remember though that it is made in Britton and their standards of what can be said are different from the American point of view. That's part of it's appeal though. Not recomendeed for children.

The quality of the picture and storylines are great and the characters well written. I do have an issue with the quality of the DVD though... some of the episodes have a tendency to freeze mid frame. I have tried them on different machines so I am sure its the DVD.

Enjoyed being able to watch it any time I wanted to. I really like the show. It is another well written English series.
