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 :)

I actually really liked this episode. I liked how they used the old Torchwood team, and how he had to go back in time to fix it. I got so scared when Gwen saw the nurse in the hospital, and then the nurse came back because she could see Gwen. It freaked me out! The guy on crutches was scary too.
Oh, and poor Tosh. She finally finds some guy, and he has to go and fix time. I don't blame her for going after Owen now.

Parts of it were really touching, just overall it was slightly boring.
