This is easily one of my favorite shows! Technically it started as a doctor who spinoff but you can watch it as a stand alone without Doctor Who ( but in my opinion you're missing out). James Barrowman plays Capt. Jack Harkness leader of a group of supernatural police. It is a British show and takes place in London and Wales. If you already own it definitely make the jump to blu-ray. It looks gorgeous! I bought the whole BBC series on blu-ray and it is amazing! I watch it all the time, sometimes I just pick out my favorite episodes and kill sometime watching them. If you're a Doctor Who fan this is a must have, even if you're just looking for a fun supernatural series I recommend this show!

Torchwood is the name of a not-so-secret organization that deals with whatever or whoever comes out of the Rift in space and time that it situated right over the city of Cardiff, Wales. The show manages once again to balance very real tragedy with a sense of fun and hope. Great show and amazing cast.

Series 1 is somewhat "monster-of-the-week" and there isn't really an overarching plot, with the exception of a few episodes. Series 2 improves on this slightly, but each episode is of a much higher quality.
