Torchwood: Children of Earth
Jul. 14th, 2009 08:35 pmI'm a few days behind everyone else, since my graphics card committed seppuku last week and had to be replaced. (Neverwinter Nights 2: so awesome your hardware will melt.) I'm glad I waited and watched it all back-to-back, though, because I don't think I could have stood the cliffhangers. As it was I watched it in inferior quality on the 'Tube because I couldn't wait for the files to finish *ahem*ing.
Short, non-spoilery version: amazingly good, up there with the best ever episodes of its parent series. Unless you find the subject matter too upsetting (for which I would not blame you - I found it very hard to sit through at times, and it didn't push any of my personal buttons) you should definitely watch it. That applies to fans of all TV science fiction, not just Doctor Who specifically.
( Some spoilery thoughts about Jack behind cut. )
