Torchwood Finale Ramblings
Jan. 1st, 2007 11:25 pmI'm willing to forgive Torchwood for a horribly uneven season because that two part finale was absolutely fucking fantastic!
OK so the time travelling old guy plot line was distinctly odd and didn't quite work and silly Godzilla style CGI monsters should be banned but oh god the rest of it... Loved the episode set in 1941 - very haunting and all the moments with Jack and his namesake were beautiful- also Owen/Ianto fighting was sheer genius. And the finale was brilliant - everyone failing Jack and then subsequently reconciling with him, redeemed Gwen, canon Jack/Ianto and an ending which segues beautifully into Doctor Who season 3. Wonderful.
