American Torchwood


I only know of a few shows that they have tried to re-make American style, or for the American audience and those have failed, miserably.
*cough* Life on Mars *cough* Kath and Kim *cough* Ab Fab *cough*The Office... you get the idea...
Why do they keep trying? surely there are plenty of other premises to base TV shows on and keep them original and leave the shows alone.

They think that Torchwood fans can take comfort in knowing:

Unlike U.S. adaptations that have gone awry, "Torchwood" fans can take comfort that the original producing team is on board, led by series creator Russell Davies who is writing the script. The U.S. version will contain a global story line compared to the more localized sensibility of the BBC version.

Also, some of the current cast -- most likely John Barrowman, who plays the immortal Capt. Jack Harkness -- might star if the script leads to a pilot order.

Personally I don't care. The show is what it is because of the great mix of characters, they could maybe replace 1 or even two but the majority of the team AND an international location... nope won't work.
Why not just use the same team and have them go international... even though it is a little bit crazy to think this tiny team can police the whole world with all the implied activity and comings and goings there is supposed to be.

But then I could be bias, I really like Torchwood as it is, it works... as it is.
Why fix something when it does not need fixing ? :(

Paranormal TV ONLINE

Can you believe I have only just found this web site?! I know!! slack!!
I haven't watched a whole lot, but what I have, I am really impressed. It's just as good as any DVD or paid channel I have seen, and this is for free and online and on demand if wanted.

I think also that it would be good support! there is a little paypal button on the side. It's hard enough for web sites to keep running just on comments (if they get any) let alone when so much work is put into them. I think because there is so much out there nowdays that people don't care and don't support.
If you like something support it. haha ok that is my whine.. it sounds like it right?! :P hehe

Really though, this is a totally fantastic idea with some great shows.

Peoples TV Network

I wish there was some fancy banner that I could put here to show you just how cool this website is! :)

The Vampires assistant

You know, everywhere where I look, there are mixed reviews, but judging from what I have seen on You Tube I think it looks pretty cute!
I mean if you go in knowing that it is a kids or "family" movie you have no expectations.
I mean I love my vampires bloody and the way vamps should be, however this kind of light hearted family movie is really cool to see now and again... I think I like the whole circus theme too.

I'll check back in after it comes out on dvd and I have seen it :)




Here are a whole heap of reviews.. it's a real mixed bag. But IMO some people just take movies too seriously and don't see them for the entertainment that they are meant to be :)

More proof that a spiritual awakening is afoot!

It's everywhere, first Vampires, and ghosts.. UFO's are even being broadcast on the news, next in the instalment are Angels.


We called the "angels are the new vampires" trend months ago, and already the facts are stacking up to bolster our claims.
Please click on the text to be taken to the story :)

Movie - Thicker than Water

"Award winning Dark Comedy / Horror about a family taking care of their vampire daughter. The Royal Tannenbaums meets Evil Dead."

I just love the look of this vampire movie! It seems to be done in such a more gruesome "real" way! Just love the look of it! (I still have not seen it yet though)
