Torchwood: Kids In The Mud
Jul. 11th, 2009 04:01 pmOn the whole, I kinda liked it. (A first for Torchwood where previous series have been best used as a metric for a drinking game.)
( We Are Spoiling. )
Looking at it via The Writer's Tale, where RTD acknowledges the problems of his dropping out of writing the Torchwood S2 opener and that opportunity to rejig the series to live up to its potential, seeing the show he had in mind is rather interesting. If it had been a standalone series (some of his Torchwood ideas started off as a non-Whoniverse series idea before he got the Who job) it might have been stronger yet. And he probably would have written more episodes of previous series himself in a parallel universe where he wasn't knackering himself running Who.
