This is so bad- I'm combusting!!! Annie: you need to be on the same Torchwood watching schedule as me because now I'm two weeks ahead of you and I'm 'sploding!!! Seriously; last couple episodes were really spazzy. I mean that in a plot sort of way, not that they were bad. Although Dead Man Walking did have some annoying continuity stuff going on.
I liked Adam (not the character, the episode) but the flashbacks were so cheesy. I have to admit I laughed through them all. That or yelled at Adam (HATRED!!! KICK HIM!!!) but I sounded not very threatening as I was sick and losing my voice.
So, saturday night for the first time I watched Torchwood alone. I don't know if you do that every time but I didn't enjoy it particularly. So scary!! I need someone to cling too. It probably didn't help that it was around midnight either.
But have you watched Reset yet? Because....omg.
So. I'm going to make a mini review list cause I'm really really bored.
KKBB: good first episode
Sleeper: Ianto. 'nuff said.
To the Last Man: Cute but boring
Meat: Rhys's time to shine :)
Adam: Interesting....especially Jack's past. (And extra points for the cute and awkward Owen)
Reset: OMG!!! WHAAAAT?????
Dead Man Walking: eh...ok....but kind of sloppy writing.
A Day In The Death (at least I think that's what it was called): cheesy, they tried to make it heartwarming but kinda failed.
That was difficult without giving spoilers.

Adam
I liked how they made Gwen completely forget who Rhys was. That was funny, when she was yelling at Jack about this stranger in her house who claims to be her boyfriend, and Jack says that he is her boyfriend. It was also good when Gwen comes in and wonders who Adam is, and everyone else has no idea what she is talking about. Adam was creepy, especially with that end bit with Ianto. I liked the previews of the Boeshane (sp?) Peninsula, and now we know who Gray is, after John Hart's little hint in Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. It was and odd episode, it was okay, but at least the team was smart for once and actually figured it out instead of doing something stupid or being stupid. Can't wait 'till next weekend!
Darn! I'm in Southern CA, where they might not have Torchwood. Oh well, I'll be back on Sunday.

Reset
Oh My God. I just watched Reset. Oh My God. I'm really actually in shock. This is terrible! I can't actually say anything because of spoilers, but I guess I can say this one thing (cause it's even in the preview for the episode) Martha's back! And she's actually a lot better in tw. I think she was written better. Anyway, see this episode and you'll understand why I am so unhappy!!!!!!!! I bet it was RTD's fault. Stupid RTD.

Meat
Spoiler Alert!
Ok, interesting episode. They did the love triangle very poorly, and the meat part? I think they should have sent it back into the rift instead of killing it. The Rhys and Gwen action was okay, and I liked how Gwen decided that she would rather leave Torchwood than take away Rhys's memories, because she had seen how his view of the world had changed. It wasn't bad, just not the best ever. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is my favorite so far.

To The Last Man
Yeah, I know it was weeks ago. Actually, I have no idea, is tw even shown in the US yet? Whatever, you can find it online. Anyway, the point is, To the Last Man had a great premise right? But it was messed up with weak plot twist and stupid relationship archs (seriously? What's up with Owen!!!!). Well, anyway, the writing was terrible. It was written by Helen Raynor. What else did she write? Daleks in Manhattan etc. remember them? THE WORST EPISODES OF SERIES 3? Why did they let her write another episode? She's even worse than RTD. The episode felt nothing like tw. There were no huge bangs, no tension, no aliens, no gadgets, no complicated technobabble. The whole episode was a waste of time. On the bright side, this season as a whole is waaay better than season 1 and Ianto is absolutely my new favorite character :)
