How's this for big news?

Fox to Make US Version of Torchwood

Thoughts? Remember that this probably has a better shot at being done right as opposed to Who, which was being restarted after years of being off TV. Torchwood is a current franchise and might fit in better.

Although the title should be more specific, it's already being discussed in the "rumour mill" thread.

Only if they do a Fringe Crossover! Could you see Walter and Capt Jack in a scene together?

Sorry but I will not watch Americanized versions of Brit shows I love (e.g., Being Human, Torchwood, Life on Mars, Blackpool, etc.). They mucked up Doctor Who's return (McGann I enjoyed but the Master was a total dud) and I'm pretty sure they'll do the same with this.

But at the same time I would completely dread an Olivia/Peter/Jack love triangle.

I think Peter would put a bullet in Jack if he tried to kiss him.

Hmm. This might be ok as long as it's a actually a spin-off. You could do Torchwood America without needing to remake anything or take away from the BBC version. It's like CSI: Miami and the original CSI.
