Well, unfortunately, it looks like the Grandview Theatre will not be pursuing Torchwood this season. :(
Cheer up, though-Torchwood is returning to our screens TONIGHT! The first episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day starts at 10 pm EDT on Starz, and no, you are not imagining things-Torchwood is indeed airing 6 days earlier in the US than in the UK. The BBC just released this statement regarding the recent complaints from UK fans. After reading the statement, I have to admit I wondered if that was the reasoning.
Torchwood! Tonight! 10 pm on Starz!!!! BE THERE! (if you can-silly premium channels...)

Marcon, welcome, and some show news
First of all, I'd like to welcome Cindy from Springfield! Welcome, Cindy!!
Next, it was great seeing all of you at Marcon!! Our video room was a success again this year! Special thanks to Andrew, for creating the playlist, Jarrod, for working out the schedule, and to ALL of our volunteers!!! Without you, we couldn't have done it!
Congrats to Betty, for winning the Hall Costume prize-her costume was fantastic! She made a very convincing Angel from Blink-it was fun to listen to the con-goers try to figure out if she was real or not. ;) She was mentioned in this blog, and can be seen in this photo set posted by members of the USS Maximillian.
I'm currently fighting a cold I seem to have picked up, but I hope to post some of my pictures to my flickr account by the end of the week.
(Thanks to Maureen, Andrew, and Lee for the news/links!)
So! If you had been hearing certain rumors regarding our favorite show and it's spinoffs around the con, some of them have been confirmed by being officially announced!
Spoiler phobes, beware the following links:
(btw, they all say pretty much the same thing-just an official announcement, and some fan blog takes)
Spoiler link 1
Spoiler link 2
Spoiler link 3
Spoiler link 4 -with a couple of more links in the post!

Unitnews has a synopsis of the DWM Issue 368 and Doctor Who Adventures Issue 36
Speaking of the DWA, it seems to be very popular, indeed! DWA celebrates industry's biggest year-on-year growth
Also from Unitnews: BBC announces more Torchwood casting
Outpost Gallifrey has the cover for the upcoming U.K. release of the Time Warrior on dvd. According to OG, this is the first time the story has been available unedited. I hope there's a Region 1 release soon! I'd love to see this story unedited. (It's one of my top 10 faves) :)
And finally, from the BBC: Companion piece: Russell T. Davies talks about the companions for the 2008 Christmas special and series 4.

Previous epiosdes:

Big news of the week: Doctor Who will not be on next week, due to the Eurovision Song Contest on the 12t. Rather than air the 7th episode, 42 at an earlier time, the BBC decided to postpone Doctor Who for a week. 42 will air on May 19th.

However, because we are being forced to wait so long for the next new episode, the BBC will be providing a special treat for fans at the end of the Lazarus Experiment-so stay tuned for something special!!
DVD updates: Time-flight / Arc of Infinity from the Fifth Doctor Era will be released on dvd in the U.K. on August 6th. Check out the list of features for each story!
This next bit was actually posted awhile ago, but I didn't link to it here: Top ten scariest Doctor Who monsters/villians -Daleks top the list-no real surprise there!! ;)
Spinoff updates: Haven't posted much about the spinoffs lately. The first season of the Sarah Jane Adventures began filming on April 16th. Torchwood's second season started filming two weeks later (April 30th). Yay! :)
There's also a new face in SJA. Daniel Anthony will be playing Clyde-a new friend of Maria and Luke's from school. His character replaces Porsha Lawrence Mavour's Kelsey from the New Years' special. [sarah-jane.tv] link
And finally, this week's SyFriday article over at the SyFy Portal features Doctor Who!
Where is 'Doctor Who' headed in Year 3? (Warning: contains moderate spoilers for season 3).

Torchwood coming to the U.S.A.!
If you haven't already heard the news-Torchwood is crossing the pond! BBC America has obtained the first-run rights to air the spin-off. It will be a part of BBCA's 'Supernatural Saturday'. Also included in the 'Supernatural Saturday' programming block are Hex, Jekyll, Life on Mars, and Doctor Who (most likely the second series). It is rumored that this new schedule could come out as early as this summer.
Still no word on whether the SciFi Channel will obtain second-run rights to the spin-off. If they do, it'll probably be a watered down version of the show. For more on the story, check out the SyFy Portal.
More very exciting news! Doctor Who's third series premiere brought in over 8 million viewers in the U.K.!! 8.2 million!! Yay!
