American fans of the BBC's Doctor Who spin-off, Torchwood, will now be able to watch new episodes on their TVs instead of the internet: Fox has a US version of the show in development.

Before you gasp in horror, read on: this "remake" rests in the capable hands of BBC Worldwide Productions' US branch. American Torchwood star John Barrowman is the only confirmed Yank on staff - although his presence is more "maybe" than "yes" right now.

David Tennant inspired tears when he abandoned his post as Doctor Who's 10th Doctor this past weekend. Teresa Jusino pens him a sad and spoiler-ific goodbye over at Tor.com. Despite Who's positive reincarnation themes, it's still depressing to see the doctors die -- even though all of Tennant's fans (both fictional and real) knew the end had arrived.

Christmas programming schedules have officially taken over our TVs. Not that we don't want to watch It's A Wonderful Life back to back with Miracle on 34th Street, but ... actually, we don't want to watch those films again. We'll just admit it.

Whovians and other sci-fi fans will find relief from the holiday onslaught on BBC America and the SyFy channel.

The Venture Brothers season 4 premiere aired last night, and dorky followers rejoiced. Expectations were too maniacally high to be surpassed, but they were definitely met. If you weren’t waiting all summer to watch this as soon as it aired, get your fix here. Warning: Venture Brothers may cause disorientation if you aren’t caught up on your episodes -- so, get caught up.
