[QUOTE]Originally posted by StationMaster: [QB] zzzzzzz..... Oh sorry... snorning there. So... last nights Torchwood was.... zzzzzzzzz Bugger, did it again. Sorry. Now, I actually genuinely looked forward to this weeks ep after seeing the trailer for it... So, off to a good start, a whole world of possibilities. And then..... Sex. AGAIN.... Wow. They are really trying to break all records for the volume of sex put in a series. In fact I think they have surpassed anything ever seen before. They should perhaps re-release Torchwood for Season two through the porn industry. So, Spoilers time. Three people leave on a plane in 1953 and end up landing in 200? where Torchwood are waiting for them. Apparently they managed to get caught up in the Rift. There are three separate stories going on through this ep. 1/ Young Girl who gets attached to Bugs Bunny (also known as Gwen) 2/ Sexy Pilot who spends most of the ep screwing Owen. 3/ Grumpy old man who spend his time with Jack. After a flying start the ep after the first 5 minutes slows down to a snails pace and at times virtually stops. Ironically our three time travellers are deep and rich characters and this creates a major problem. It makes the supposid stars of the show look even more flat, two dimensional and dull. These three characters outshine the regular actors in their portrayals, however at this point enters those pesky writers again. And rather than do something exciting with them, they plod them through the episode in a very predictable manner until the end. Which is a crying shame. The result is this.... 1/ Young girl adapts to life in the 21st century and gets a job working in London. Woo hoo! 2/ Sexy Pilot after playing hanky panky with Owen (weasil) make him fall in love with her and then leaves in her plane heading back to the Rift... nice touch in the end, but could have been better written. 3/ Old man cannot adapt, is all alone. He in the end decides to top himself. Jack, like a good citizen, tries to stop him, but the truth is, he wants to die too. So they try to top themselves together.. except Jack cannot die. Looks like he has been wanting to die for ages. Good old fashion message to people there. If life sucks, kill yourself. YAY TORCHWOOD! So, and I am getting tired of saying this, Torchwood is given a good premise and then they FUBAR it once again. The only thing I sincerely wish for here is a Toilet to fall out of the rift and flatten Gwen (and Owen if you could please) and get the Sexy Pilot back and make her a regular.... But we know that could not happen.... this is Torchwood. Chris [/QB][/QUOTE]
