Torchwood again: last night's episode (2.3)

[avevale_intelligencer]

First reaction: instant pathos, just heat and serve. Have these people got no self-control? Aren't any of them remotely monogamous? (Apart from Rhys, and I'm sure when he has his episode next week he'll be overcome by love or lust at least twice.) The story would have worked just as well, and Tommy been just as tragic, without the pseudo-romance. We're still just a bit behind the bike sheds, where discussion of "adult themes" is not only possible but compulsory.

With that out of the way, it didn't seem quite that bad to me.

Blimey - that rang no bells at all. I seem to have a largely visual memory of the series. The other one that really haunted me was the WWI story.

It was one of the strengths that it wasn't about good/evil but about order/chaos.

I seem to be more affected by music than some people. This is not a bad thing, either way. :)
