So, for those who saw it, what did you think of Torchwood? One thing's for certain, I won't be letting my 11 year-old Who fanatic son watch it!
I liked it. But I thouoght that the Doctor was particularlyI watched the first two episodes of Torchwood on BBC 3 definitely not one for the kids...hence the late night slot but enjoyable none the less.
Girl in the fireplace...what did you think? One of the more surreal episodes I have seen.
I like the "Girl in the Fireplace"...but is it just me or do they seem to be doing an aweful lot with his lovelife?...not that it doesn't make for good TV, but it's just never really been done before...
Why?
Um um, he had these things (wife, kids, grandkids) in the original 30 run of the series??? Which episodes mentioned this. I don't remember anything like that. Of course, I could easily miss something, it's been ages since I've seen the original stuff. But I thought they didn't do anything with his love life to begin with and that pretty much only started with Eccleston.There have been some "hints" in the past, but nothing overt. Heck. He was married (presumably) and had kids and a granddaughter. He, at one time, had a love life.
I think it is interesting, the revelations he makes, but as long as they don't drag it into every story, I'm fine with it. LOL.

To be honest, I find it neither here nor there. I lived with a doctor who wanted no romance with his companions, and that was fine with me. Introducing it now seems like it's...I don't know...interesting but unnecessary. Don't get me wrong. It's fun to see this but it was never necessary in order for me to enjoy Doctor Who.
I did love the Vulcan mind-meld thing he had going on there. That was a new one too, wasn't it?
the first Doctor (William Hartnell) flew around with his grand-daughter Sarah...
I am wondering what all y'all are talking about when it comes to Torchwood episodes. Are these separate from the series running on SciFi now? Will we see them on SciFi in the future?
As for my kids seeing this stuff, they have been watching things like Alien and Predator since they were little. I kept reinforcing that it was fake and made to scare people. They never had nightmares from it. Never bothered them. Now Nightmare on Elm Street bothered my younger daughter (she saw it around age 10 at a birthday party/sleep over at a friend's house). She doesn't much like gore-flicks but then again neither do I and I rarely watch them. Movies like Silent Hill, which I saw last month, really creeped me out in parts and she felt the same way. We tend to stay away from these things and if I'd known what the content was in that movie, I wouldn't have bothered to rent it. So I'm not sure if Torchwood episodes of any sort would bother the kids, gore and language included.
Actually, the first Doctor (William Hartnell) flew around with his grand-daughter, Susan.
