Yeah but that beat down was did seem clearly intended to garner the character sympathy. That didn’t offend me so much because they did make clear that the man had no real feelings of guilt over what he had done. I just found the whole thing really disjointed and then throw in out of context homoerotica and it just seemed like a mess of a show. There is just not a lot to like and even the characters aren’t as compelling as in the original Torchwood. Anyway there is plenty of other good sci fi on lately. I’ve been enjoying Alphas, Eureka, Falling Skies, and Haven. :-)

I agree, the pullman character is disgusting and I don't get how they intend to work him into the story in any capacity. The writing is bad all around and even the character of Esther seems too shakey and scared to work for the CIA.

We have enjoyed Falling Skies but have to admit even that lacks in good writing. At times when you would expect them to be running or hiding they stand and discuss their feelings. ;^)

That's the positive side of these threads; the recognition that there is a new flock of good entertainment, free of the pink mafia indoctrination.

I would add Royal Pains, The Mentalist, Burn Notice, Private Affairs, Suits, Blue Bloods, Against the Wall and Warehouse 13 to that list.

Man does not live by SciFi alone.
