There's a Blowfish there, eh?

Canadians rejoice! Season Two of Torchwood cometh!

Canada's Space: The Imagination Station picked up series two when Torchwood co-producer Canadian Braodcasting Company elected not to air Torchwood for its second season. The two hour season premere will air on Friday, August 8th at 9:00pm EDT

Because of the CBC's involvement with season one, Space: TIS won't be able to air the first season episodes, nor any of the Doctor Who series, which may cause a little confusion amongst newer viewers to the series. So the fine folks at Space: TIS have put up a good web presence to help Canadians who are new to the show get up to speed.

Space: TIS also has an interview with John Barrowman available on it's blog as well.

Oh, but it's so depressing at the lack of Torchwood till spring for the UK! If it is spring that could mean a whole year for 5 episodes.

CBC is acting stupid again. First they cancel one of their only, truly interesting original shows (jPod) and now they don't pick up season 2 of Torchwood. Instead they show idiotic shows like MVP and Sophie. Good thing we have Space.

Ahem. It should be, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC for short), not Company at the end.

I'm very pleased that Space has Torchwood now, CBC cut it to pieces in 2007. I watched the first two episodes on Space and didn't notice any cuts and loved having full screen end credits instead of smushed together credits so you can't read them.
