Torchwood: The Complete First Season courtesy BBC Warner
This Doctor Who spin-off debuted on BBC America back in September and quickly garnered the highest ratings in the network's history. Packed with fascinating alien artifacts and adversaries, Torchwood will win over sci fi fans — whether or not they've seen the original Doctor Who episodes that introduced viewers to the secret, beyond-the-law organization. The heart and soul of the show is John Barrowman as the immortal, bisexual Captain Jack Harkness, whose team of scientists and crime fighters get into all sorts of messes but always return to the fold. The 13 original episodes appear on 7 discs, along with an impressive array of bonus material: cast interviews, commentary, deleted scenes, featurettes, etc. Check it out before the next season starts up again on BBCA this weekend! — Nina Hämmerling Smith
