FOX cans American Torchwood: Fans have been pretty split about an Americanized version of anything Doctor Who related, and now they won’t need to worry about us getting our hands all over Torchwood … for now. FOX decided not to go ahead with the series, but that doesn’t stop other American networks from stepping up to the plate. The BBC said this in a statement:

“BBC Worldwide Productions and the FOX Broadcasting Company have mutually agreed not to progress together with a 13-episode serialized Torchwood format,” said BBC Worldwide in a statement. “We are currently in discussion with several interested networks.”

    Thanks for sharing the Trek Nation trailer.

    After seeing your report on Nimoy’s retirement, it reinforces the feeling of an end of an era, notwithstanding his nod to the new franchise. (I already had that feeling when I saw how old he was in the last movie.)
