I'm a big fan but I'm not so keen on this series long one mission thingy.

I preferred it when there was a new problem to sort every episode.

Btw, I wish they'd stop with the excessive gayness, it's totally unnecessary.

Same here, finding it difficult to enjoy this protracted plot.

Btw. I thought he was bi so where are the naked ladies?

Watching but not as good as the previous ones. One storyline over 10 episodes and to be honest not really that much going on. I will continue watching in the hope that the climax will be better. Bring on Dr Who he'd fix it.

I think John Barrowman only agreed to do it if the plot was screamingly camp

It's tediously slow, and obviously aimed more at the US audience (so that they can keep up).

One main story per episode with themes running through the series is better.

FFS gayness overload, totally unnecessary, I'm losing interest in this really quickly.

GF kept on telling me this was brilliant, like Dr Who for grown ups. I finally watched one a couple of weeks a go. Such rubbish :p

Well 20 mins in and it seems to have changed into a gay soft porn flick for 10 mins

Gave up on it last week. Started to watch last night's episode, and it just confirmed last week's decision.

Too Americanised from the old series, not as good, and far too much gayness.

Nothing against John Barrowman being gay, but I dont want it rammed down my throat.


















I thank you.

As others have said, I know he's gay and thats just fine by me... But why is so much of the show dedicated to it?

Because of the raving pufter who wrote it ;)

I like the show, and i really like Cpt. Jack.
BUT
I really don't want to see him making this into a gay porn show..............
The fans of torchwood do not need all this gayness....
Can’t we have all this gay love making implied instead of shown ?….

The new one started ok, but the last 3 episodes have been awful... definately going downhill

Never seen it before, but happened to catch the first episode, and so far have really enjoyed the series, but to be honest this weeks was a lille dissapointing IMO. i didn't realise that the previous series were a different plot every week, i might try and catch up once this series is over!

Yep have to agree that the first few series were really good but the latest one has gone downhill and the gayness has become a bit excessive when it could easily have been implied, but to all those who have said yak etc would you have turned off if it had been Gwen and the american lady cavorting about naked? ;)

I understand what youre saying, but they wouldn't have shown their bare rear ends then, it would've been shot differently.

The American woman has gotta a kicking figure going on btw, she looks hot in those boots :)

I liked the female doctor who got burned alive as well, shame that.

The writer is a nufter, he's doing this stuff to get a reaction, it's working cos were discussing it now.
John barrowman couldn't be anymore gay if he went and got gay tuition at a gay training 'camp' ( pun intended).

I suspect if it was the ladies covorting about naked the transmission time would be bumped back to 9 or later.

although i'm enjoying it i must admit there is a bit of a gay overload. like most movies/tv if you want to fill a gap put sex in. but this weeks episode took the biscuit. if i want to watch gay porn i'll rent a movie or i'll ask the mates if i can sit and watch.

Tonights was good, although ending very predictable. Only 9 hours of my life wasted!!

I've still got the last two weeks sat on the vid that I haven't had a chance to watch yet. And tonight's now. Definitely agree that the 10 episode run could have been halved to keep it moving a bit faster. But then our American cousins might have struggled to keep up. After all, it's their fault we have "Previously on..." at the beginning of everything and, if it's 'factual' like Wife Swap etc you have to have a "Coming After The Break..." and a recap after the adverts as well because they'll forget what they've just seen otherwise. Actually, apart from "Law & Order" which, in 20 series, I genuinely don't think I've ever seen a "Previously on..."

I watched episode 9 last night, seemed better than the rest eager to see last now but I think I know what is going to happen.

Well that was s**t, much prefered the the one story one show of the first few series.
