Made In Way-Ay-Ales! Made in Way-Ay-Ales!
Tonight I've been celebrating my re-connectivity by downloading YouTuberies while, in another room, binge-watching Torchwood via my brother's loaner DVDs. Seen three stories so far. I guess I'd sooner call it technoid-horror than sci-fi. Or perhaps fusion social SF/horror?
Captain Jack reminds me of the character Jon-Erik Hexum played on (*cheats by looking on IMDB.com*) Voyagers! (*realizes that most of the readers of this LJ probably never SAW Voyagers!) Of course Jack is much much smarter than Bogg. But a lot of the same traits are there.
(*multiple sighs of resignation*) Now I really feel old.
Torchwood wins for its fabulous visual storytelling, its effects, its direction and its "reality". I'm not sure I'm into all the characters yet, tho'.
