Torchwood

I like this show Torchwood. And I must say everybody in the picture above looks so attractive. Better than what they usually look like in the show. This show is about this group called Torchwood that is separate from the government, outside the police, and beyond the United Nations. It deals with the machinations and activities of the Cardiff branch of the fictional Torchwood Institute, who deal mainly with incidents involving extraterrestrials. The characters includes Ionto Jones, Gwen Cooper, Captain Jack Harkness, Dr. Toshiko Sato and Dr. Owen Harper. It is a show on BBC America. One thing I noticed about BBC America shows is how liberal they are about the sexuality of their characters. This show is a perfect example. The characters kisses and have relationships with both sexes. Same is true with other BBC America shows like HEX and Hotel Babylon. The reason behind it must be the absence of the puritan christian mentality that is true here in American. So refreshing indeed.
