Thoughts on Torchwood
May. 16th, 2008 04:10 pm(Yes, I have been very bored recently. Stupid cold)
So, I've just finished Torchwood Season One and thought I'd do the sort of description of it I wanted before I started, just in case any of you still haven't watched it and are curious, or you have watched it and are curious to know what I thought.
First off: is set just after (and spoils the finale of somewhat) Season 2 of Dr Who.
Overall..it was crap. But I enjoyed it anyway, I'm not sure why! It's very patchy and inconsistent, but has some coolish ideas. I think I'm just a sucker for ensemble genre shows with character change and soap opera-y stuff going on in the background. The unselfconscious inclusion of same-sex romance/tension etc was a very nice change from every other tv show ever.
