The thing is, MU has a point system where your files being downloaded earns points, and points can be traded for premium access. However files over 100 or 200mb (not sure which) don't count. so 10+ 98mb links mean tons of points, meaning free premium. But giant pain in the ass to people downloading.

Oh I see, that's pretty lame. Didn't know that, thanks.

**Qalbert** · 2011-07-08 13:44

bumping so people see new title.

**Kuya** · 2011-07-08 14:48

Do you think it would be a bad idea to see this without having finished season 2 and 3?

**tyven** · 2011-07-08 14:58

I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS SHOW BUT I LOVE STARZ. IS IT OKAY FOR ME TO WATCH THIS SHOW?

**Qalbert** · 2011-07-08 15:27

They're treating this season as a reintroduction of the show, to be accessible to new viewers, so it would be ok to start here and then go back for the rest if you like it.

**Mots** · 2011-07-09 02:45

Is it only 30 minutes long? I wasn't paying much attention to the time while I was watching but it seemed like it was short as fuck.

**Qalbert** · 2011-07-09 09:15

nope it was an hour minus a few comercials. like 50 mins or so.

**Rhinox** · 2011-07-09 13:01

**Rhinox** · 2011-07-09 20:45

So wait this isn't a new series and just recycled episodes from BBC?

**Qalbert** · 2011-07-09 20:47

Season 2 is only 13 episodes and Season 3 is only 5 episodes, would be quick to catch up, and I recomend them.

1st episode of this season kinda spoils the fate of 3 characters though, assuming you dont already know...

End of this episode is lol-tastic. The season's starting off pretty nicely and Mekhi Phifer is a great addition to the show. Also, if you have Netflix, they have the first 3 seasons streaming. As stated, first 2 seasons are 13 ep, 3rd is 5 ep. Definitely recommend watching the older seasons if you want a back story on Torchwood.

You missed a hella good time at the Torchwood panel today. John Barrowman, Eve Myles, Mekhi Phifer, Alexa Havins, Bill Pullman, and Jane Espenson were all here at the Con to talk about their new (and newly American-based) series, Torchwood: Miracle Day. John Barrowman said that the ending of Children of Earth was written to sort of close out the show, but he thought there was more story to tell. Eventually Russell Davies and Jane Espenson started working on new ideas for a new series, Starz was very supportive, and now here we are.

There was a sad lack of exclusive footage and scenes from future episodes, but they did let a few tantalizing tidbits drop. For longtime fans of the show, if you thought that it couldn't get any darker than 4, 5, 6, just wait until episode 5. Episode 5 is a very important and emotional episode for Jack and Gwen. Captain Jack won't move on from Ianto immediately, but will have sexytimes in Episode 7. There is some kind of major sequence in episode 10. Phifer's character, Rex, may be an arrogant jerk, but there's an upcoming episode, that will flip the audience's perception of him. And Espenson says that in this series we should look forward to flexibility with the timeline, darkness, complications, and losses. And we should ask ourselves the questions the show is asking? What would all of this mean? How would we change as a species? What would happen if…? And Barrowman says to look forward to brilliant writing by Espenson.

Mostly the panel was just really funny. Eve Myles has amazing comedic timing, and John Barrowman is a bit camp, which is deliciously fun. The cast seems to really enjoy each other, which is kind of rare. There was an Annie sing-along, and I will leave you with the slightly cryptic quote, "I DID NOT PEE MYSELF."

I'm sure there is a transcript of the conference someplace..
