I really like it.
I'll give you 90 minutes back though, not 120 cos they've been used.

if you think Torchwood is good TV you have very low standards.

I'm glad the BBC plan to edit out the sex scenes.The ones in episode 3 are cringingly awful

Just watched the second episode, okay, better than the first. Not great but enjoyable enough

What?
I couldn't believe how awful it was.
I'm getting tired of the brit/american lingo jokes.
The american actors are outshining the brits.

Too skool for cool
Yes the sex scenes were truly awful, the UK is lucky to have had them taken out, *you* may hate the US/Brit speech jokes but I'm sure the Americans will like them ('Gee, say something in English honey'
:shudder: ), and I don't know about anyone else but the plot is labouring the 'welsh female chuck norris' thing a bit much.I'm still rather enjoying it though.

hmmm, i want to like it, but there's something nagging away that annoys me in each episode. also, i thought the impaled joke was just a bit too crude.

The put down made me lol though.
I thought that was funny.
I like it, but I think they're laying on the British/American stuff a bit too thickly.

it was much better than last week, and i did enjoy it, but there are cringey moments galore and it does take away from my overall enjoyment.

I agree with this. It seems like they are going for the serious american sci fi drama thing then sticking in the slightly camp torchwood charaterisation. It just doesn't seem to work .

I missed it last week but seemed to have missed nothing.
It's very slow, all we really got this week was 'drug company'
It's just a few set pieces linked together with a couple of throwaway lines.
They sit in their 'hideaway' and babble about crap, then suddenly get down to work.
"oh I see a paper trail it must be covering something up. yep it's covering up this warehouse"
"Ok lets go to the warehouse"
*at the warehouse*
"Its full of drugs"
*on the way home*
"Oh I'm gay and there is a gay bar so I'm going to go in and be all gay in the name of character development"

After be accussed of not liking Gay joke the American replies
"Not got a problem with gays I do have a problem of a 40 year old acting like he is in his 20s"
Well I found it funny.

i think this is going to turn out to be 4 episodes too long for the series. the basic storyline is decent enough, but it seems like there's a lot of padding, meaning you just get inane crap for the majority of some episodes.

Yup. They should have stuck with the 5 episodes over one week format. No filler and the pace was kept up nicely. This is way too slow and full of pointless scenes that add nothing to the story.

Surely the idea is to ensure as much exposure to the american audience as possible.
I've not watched TW before but I'm watching this because CofE was really well received. I don't mind the character introduction/development lines although they mostly seem a bit comic-book. That's partly the nature of the show though.

Agree with you - I like the concept but the pace is too slow with not really enough happening of interest in each episode. Will still watch it though!
