Anyone been watching Torchwood?

I tried swinging the cat but smacked its head 4 times.

So where do you keep your bikes?

Oh, the place is huge, I just don't like cats.

Don't tell me........bigger on the inside than the outside?

Me too! My phone ringtone is Dr Who's theme tune, if I get a text it's K9 saying "Danger Mistress" I admit I am a complete Dr Who geek!

So there is a woman who likes Doctor Who. You're already taken though. Assuming you also have an interest in science despite possibly not being qualified in it. "Sighs Whistfully"

I like Dr Who.

I liked it more with David Tennant, but I still like it generally.

And I like Science.

I gave up on this series of Torchwood after about 4 episodes.

took 10 episodes to tell a 5 episode story. other than that twas rather good.

That's the American way though, did you not see all 6 series of Lost?

Gave up on Torchwood. I stopped caring about the characters, which is always a bad sign.

Wife didn't (loves Sci Fi, science degree, but taken ), and from her analysis, I'm glad that I stopped watching it.

Problem seems to be that RTD is great at characterisation, but dodgy on plot. Torchwood was too much plot and not enough character. Writing was at times good, but no where near tight enough - too many holes in the plot, story-line dead ends, and limited credibility. Which is a shame, as RTD can be a good writer.

RTD's biggest issue as I see it is that he loves to introduce sexual ambiguity into his characters. No doubt drawn from personal experience.

Or the paint dryingly slow series 1 of Heroes?

I completely disagree. I loved Heroes all the way through. Not every TV programme needs to be action packed all of the time.

RTD's biggest problem is he likes to endow each of his lead characters with personal or relationship problems that get in the way of the plot and take up inordinate amounts of time.

What, including the stupid ending?
