Can you believe we're almost a full month into the new year and we haven't had a John Barrowman sighting?
Well, thanks to a friend of mine who forwarded me a link this week, we've got our first one of the year.
Apparently the BBC TV folks and the American Fox TV folks are in talks to bring Torchwood (and Barrowman) to the States in the future.
(Ironically, the photo (above) that accompanied the story on The Hollywood Reporter's website included one character who is no longer on the show due to the character's untimely death.)
Sure. It's still in talks, and Fox doesn't always have the best reputation for sticking with the funky new shows on its schedule.
Sure. Captain Jack Harkness probably won't be allowed to be nearly as randy on American TV, but since the BBC folks will still be involved his lovelife might have a chance.
But, imagine if a season of the show lasted 26 episodes instead of only half that many.
I could work on dealing with that.

Ok, so you must not have been following the Barrowman too closely this much. Three points of evidence.
1. The Big Gay Battle between Barrowman and Neil Patrick Harris that was big enough to be reported in the Wall Street Journal.
2. This piece of news is almost a week and a half old.
3. And the big Barrowman casting news today is that he has been cast in a five episode arc of Desperate Housewives.
Also, let's not forget that he has announced he has a new album coming out 1 March.
Hey, Rachel --
Thanks for the updates. You may want to note that this was *my* first sighting. I never said it was the first bit of news of the year. Sorry if you were hoping for "breaking news."
Thanks for the other bits of news, though. And thanks for checking in.
Robert
