Torchwood

[Escape]

Masturbation, lesbian kiss, profanity ("fuck, piss, shit & bastard"), sex on a sink, aliens who "feed" off orgasms... and that's just the first 2 episodes.

Viewers who're excited by the above will celebrate it's maturity. But it's awkward to watch, like a kid's show with adult elements stuck on.

Where was the masturbation?
Other than that, I agree and said so on the Daoc OT forum. I thought that episode was generaly crude. It relied on a very poor plot line and base humour. Surley they can do better than that.

 

[mank!]

I thought it was ace, totally naff humour, quite camp but bordering on crude as well.

I liked it.

I didn't, too Welsh.

Too Welsh ?................................fuck you !

Nothing can ever be too Welsh - in fact most of the worlds problems stem from a lack of Welshness....

I didn't catch it but my mate who watched the new Dr Who stuff with his lad (now 11) taped and watched it Torchwood and has decided not to let his lad watch it (Well his wife told him its a no no soon as she heard about the orgasms) because of the above stuff - which he is a bit pissed about because on the adverts etc it didn't really indicate it was going to be more adult orientated and his lad is gutted now he can't watch it...

 

[mank!]

The slightest whiff of Welsh is too Welsh.

At least the Lesbian kiss was long enough for a wank !

Thought it was shit. The "adult" storylines were what a 15 year old thinks of as adult. Pure chav entertainment, as verified by my heat-magazine-reading g/f - who liked it

 

[mank!]

It was far too subtlely ironic for it to be "chavertainment"...

 

[Xtro]

"came and went!"

Harmless fun.

Well Duh. Brought to you by the creator of Doctor Who and Queer As Folk. What did you expect? Personally thought the first ep was OK but the second was a bit shit; "orgasmic energy"?

 

[throdgrain]

I thought it was alright really.

Security guard at the club 2nd episode.

Didn't like it much, X-files did the whole aliens living off sexual energy thing so much better

I thought the second episode was a bit weak tbh - a bit like that naff dr who when all the mannequins came to life etc

The third episode however, that looks a bit tasty!

Never bothered with this at all, didn't really like the new Doctor Who much either.

Kind of glad I didn't bother now.

Its a bit hit n miss so far - does anyone else think its Captain Scarlet meets Buffy the vampire slayer?

Cant wait for the mysterons to show up...
