Fox have no input on Dr Who. I think the use of 'reboot' in this instance is merely that BBC Worldwide will push Dr Who more in the US with Season 5. The US version of Torchwood wilol be made by BBC, not Fox - though as it will be made for Fox there is likely going to be some input from them. This is why I hope that Torchwood (Cardiff) continues.

There was an april fools joke | There was an april fools joke a few years ago that they were making an American version of Doctor Who http://www.who-philes.com/2009/04/01/an-american-who/.

The TV movie doesnt count really in my eyes as DW was not as popular as it is now (my opinon, agree or disagree) and the movie was to see if DW could be americanized if memory serves. Torchwood on the other hand has RTD and JG and an american version could have promise. Then again, it could blow up in their face. [[User:Geffe71|Geffe71]] 01:28, January 20, 2010 (UTC) | ||

We'll have to wait and see if this is the end of the Cardiff team or not. I hope we get both.
It will be interesting to see if this US version will still be a Torchwood dedicated to the British Empire. Or whether it moves to being a global interest - I know the blurb says "U.S. version will contain a global story line" but that doesn't [preclude it being from an 'Empire' perspective.

Does anyone pick up on the references to the Fox network in The Simpsons? If so, they make it seem like Fox is so bad. Maybe Torchwood will turn out as bad as they say... :P The evil dude. 18:19, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
Eh, there goes the continuity out of the window. The moment I heard "reboot" on Doctor Who and Torchwood, I got annoyed. Instead of "rebooting£ stories, they should just continue the story in its respective continuity. *sigh* Delton Menace 20:46, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
