Miracle Day ep 4.
- Still shiny & American & nicely entertaining. (Feels a bit like 24 or similar, but with Torchwood-y guest stars.)
- Still zero thoughts, and no particular attachment to anything.
- Have decided that Jilly is my favourite though. (Amy icon in honour of her, what with the shared awesome ginger-ness!)
ETA: Rex's grumble at how Torchwood 'see it as a game' rather grated, to be honest. Not that I don't know what he means, but this is quite simply how they deal with things. This is their life. (Or was, and they slip easily into back habits.) They've watched all their friends die. They know the stakes far better than Rex does. And the way they deal is by treating it as a game, because otherwise they'd end up like Suzie and put a bullet through their brain, y'know?
Also, I'm really tired of Jack being a blank. It's a little like S1 all over again. I'm not THAT bothered, because I'm not really invested, but I'd like to know what's happened to him since we last saw him. Because currently I've got zero idea of what's going through his head.

no subject
That's a good way of putting it. CoE was brutal, but it was also very Torchwood team centric, it moved quickly (both in story terms and how it was broadcast) and there was a sort of inevitability to everything - like watching a fire spread. MD is... like s big flood and you just sit there and wait to see who'll drown next. (It's 9am, I'm not sure my allegories are the best, sorry.)
Poor Torchwood--continually in the throes of growing pains.
Well it *did* grow up with CoE, but I always saw it as a bit of a catch-22? It grew up, but in doing so also destroyed itself. RTD is trying to put it back together, but it's not quite working.
SO TRUE. I love when trailers reach the level of art <3
