It is different to hear them use some profanity that would never be on American TV and they are VERY restrained in shooting bad guys. One scene the evil bad guy that had been killing people and eating them had killed most of the people of a small village captured some of the team and was choking one team member. The other team member shows up and only points a gun at the cannibal and says stop or I will shoot. On American TV they would have shot him for sure.
Right now I would give it a 3 out of a 5 rating. They do have some interesting plot lines.

You should watch the Dr Who episodes that introduced Captain Jack Harkness for some background since Torchwood is a spinoff from those.
