They've canned so many great series, I'm surprised anyone is actually thinking about going to them anymore. Partner with SyFy, for the love of the Doctor.

The pilot ep? @mike945

The only other US network I would love to co-produce Torchwood would be NBC. All the others (the CW, in particular): stay away... Anyway, the only way I can see Torchwood carrying on would be if it were produced and filmed in the US, considering the conclusion of Children of Earth. Technically it wouldn't be a spin-off of Torchwood, but a continuation/revival. RTD and Julie would probably still be at the helm for each series (with some network people, of course) and they'd still have the full support of Jane.

I only got into Torchwood when I watched Children of Earth, and then went back and watched the previous two series, definitely worth recomissioning it, whether it's 13 episodes or just 5.

I mean, I suppose America can have Britain's Got Talent and X Factor and all that kind of stuff, but when it comes to Doctor Who and Torchwood, it just feels impossible that it could be successfully converted. It'd be a bit like Britain making their own version of Star Trek. To be honest, I’m a little glad this attempt at Torchwood US has stalled.

After the critical acclaim coupled with high audience figures Children of Earth garnered, I'm really surprised they aren't already filming the follow up. Get a new mini-series made for the Beeb!
