Torchwood Series 1

01: Everything Changes September 8, 2007
(First watched 2007-09-08) Nice general introduction to Torchwood, but as such a piloty episode I'm left uncertain what sort of style or tone this show will be using on a weekly basis. It could be like X-Files without everything ending as confusing as it begins, or Men in Black without aliens in music videos, or something else entirely.
Nice to see Jack again. He seems a bit more... personable, mellow, and just plain legitimate than I remembered, and I wouldn't have expected him to enjoy getting washed up in Cardiff. I suppose between then and now he's had time to get used to it, though, and has found a job as exciting as can be found on the planet.
So Suzie was the murderer... OK, I see her motivation. But why did she do it with such a specialized weapon that she was working on even around her colleagues? Was there some alien-artifact-related reason she was sharpening a fancy blade at work? Perhaps it was an alien thing itself, but that would still leave it an incredibly stupid thing for someone in her position to use as a murder weapon.

02: Day One September 15, 2007
(First watched 2007-09-15) Uhhh, OK, that was something. I guess I've heard the show described as "Doctor Who for adults", and they wanted to make that clear as quickly as possible.

03: September 22, 2007
(Firstt watched 2007-09-25) About time we saw something of Owen beyond the superficial, as he had to deal with the knowledge and shared emotions of a murdered woman.
