Torchwood!

One of the big pluses of the Arisia hotel was that it had BBC America (no Comedy Central, four different ESPNs and that.) We got to see Torchwood, as well as some charming BBC reality series.

Stupid Cablevision. BBC News, yes. BBC America? Not so much.

I now own the DVDs for the first series. Yay!

I am comparing them to US reality shows. Maybe it's the accents, but we liked "Treasures from the Attic" and "How Clean is Your House."

There's a US version of the latter, but it lacks...well, it lacks a woman with very done hair calling people "dear" and "lovey" while cleaning with embellished rubber gloves.

It also gave us a short-lived desire to declutter.
