Torchwood is Dead

There is a dearth of good sci-fi shows available, and now it seems we've lost yet another one. Torchwood just finished a 5-episode miniseries that has pretty much busted a cap in its own ass. Seriously, they knocked off more than 1/2 of the cast, a resurrection would be hard to pull off.
Shit!
Its bad enough we lost Firefly after 1 freakin' season, we had to run to the BBC to get a decent replacement. (Side note to Josh: what did you expect of a sci-fi show that had a crap-ass cowboy song in its intro? That was guaranteed doom.)
There are already rumors a-buzzing on the Interwebs that Capt. Jack will be in a spin-off series. That could be something. But the writers will be hard-pressed to find the same kind of character magic that they had in Torchwood.
So, R.I.P. Torchwood.
