| Re: Torchwood My biggest problem with Torchwood is that Jack is supposed to be a friend of the Doctor, and yet he's working for Torchwood? The organisation that was set up to ensure the Doctor stayed away and to fight any and all aliens that come to our planet? Seems like aconflict of interest to me. Also, I just can't see the thing between Owen and Gwen. It doesn't fit for me. I agree that a lot of the characters are mostly flat as well. Dosesn't seem to be much to them, especially the chinese lady (forgot her/her character's name). |

Yes, I agree, the characters definitely need more fleshing out (pardon the double entendre) Owen cracks me up! He is like a child in the way he has no thought for anything outside himself. And he gets some really good lines. Quote:
Maybe. That's my rationalisation.  | ||

| Re: Torchwood I found I was quite unsatisfied by the shallowness of each episode compared to the length. I mean with an hour of episode I thought I would get more out of it by the end. Am I just getting old and whiny? Yes. Yes I am.  |

| Re: Torchwood I thought Jack was perfectly placed in Torchwood...He's had experience with aliens, so he can make himself useful while all the time he's searching for the Doctor... The only problem I have with that is that at some point he would have come up against one - at least - of the other incarnations...But hey-ho...If he's going to wait for Eccleston then he's gonna have a long wait  ...I like this series...A lot...I can't wait for the rest of it... |

 And of course you like it, Robertbert. You have an odd sense of humour and so does the show! I like it too. It has the right balance of cool and tongue-in-cheek (not a word out of you, Ladygiggs! ) | |

| Re: Torchwood Okay, I won't. The location has gotten messed up in the past. I think it's more fun this way! I change mine regularly to prevent boredom. To get back on topic (kind of): I will be really upset if the only way I can watch Torchwood is on DVD, pay-TV or bit-torrent download! I hope they show it over here or I shall be most put out!  |

| Re: Torchwood wait, wait, wait! Are you trying to tell me that there's a spin-off of Doctor Who starring CAPTAIN JACK? (swoons) I totally missed this whole series of threads, because it's not playing in the US so Torchwood meant nothing to me. Suppose we'll have to wait a few years to see it. Shuckydarn. |
