Chilling out tonight watching an episode of Torchwood

We have BBC America OnDemand. There are some unique and well-written/well-acted shows on here. We liked "Mistresses." It's off-season now. We've just discovered "Torchwood." I guess this is the third season. We may be getting these on DVD. I'd say it's like the British version of "X-Files." What Phyllis and I like about British shows is that not every actress/actor is gorgeous. They don't mind looking NORMAL. We loved "Prime Suspect" with Helen Mirren. The woman can friggin' act. I thought it was cool when she won a Golden Globe a couple of years ago for playing both Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II--Elizabeth I for HBO and Elizabeth II for "The Queen." I had planned on writing tonight, but took a break to catch up on my website and e-mails. So now I'm sitting here watching this with Phyllis. It's refreshing that two of the male characters are gay. They shared a KISS. Not a kiss. lol Contrast it with here and "Will and Grace." As long as Will remained chaste, his character was accepted. Whatever... Back to the show. :-)
