Reaction post - Torchwood 3.1 (is that what we're calling it???)
I'm not writing a long review because I'm knackered and want my bed, but just wanted to say that I wasn't really that excited about the return of TW but I sat down and watched it tonight and it was one *hell* of a lot better than I expected.
Okay, so there was too much Ianto, because they still haven't got any new team members (and I'm still waiting for them to explain why they haven't already recruited some!), and I've decided I really don't like GDL - I've tried, I really have, but he just makes me squirm. He's so wet.
On the other hand, the vibe between him and Jack was hilarious, because I really didn't think the writers would dare to make him *that* clingy, and yet there he was exactly as had been predicted in fanfic after fanfic - "I love him but I don't know how he feels about me." Brilliant! (Well, as long as they don't end the week with Jack declaring his undying - heh - love or something... Okay, now I'm scared.)
And then there was Rhys, working out the times of day thing. And Gwen pregnant - that was cool. And Jack's a dad! (Or is he actually the mother???) That was a fantastic reveal, and I didn't see it coming. I guess with such a small team, they're going to have to show them interacting more with people outside TW, and it was cool to see some more of both Jack and Ianto's families.
Apart from that, they've started a hell of a lot of storylines and I'm really looking forward to seeing how those develop in the rest of the series.
Okay, that wasn't that short in the end, was it? *g*
