CoE is so flawless.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
IMO it was far from flawless (several plotholes and discrepancies), but yeah, as a whole it was utterly amazing.

And I usually hate that kind of depressing cynical shit. But CoE made it work somehow.

I thought it was incredible and I'd only seen the odd episode of Torchwood (though I was a massive Doctor Who fan). Maybe that makes my opinion invalid, but as a piece of television it was wonderful. And I think the fact that I could follow it and empathise with characters without a prior history of the show is to its credit. Not flawless by any means (I felt Ianto's death, for example, was rather cheap and sensationalist- but even that kind of worked because often death is kind of senseless. I could've lived without it though) but truly excellent for a show I'd always perceived of as rather goofy.

I'm a big fan of these ultra-cynical things, though.

Different anon. I agree with this 100%

I love CoE but as with many of RTD's works I wouldn't call it flawless. More deeply flawed but bold enough for me to love it anyway.

Why do you say that? I'm curious because that doesn't seem to be a popular opinion.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I think CoE-hate is only popular among hardcore fans of Torchwood seasons 1 and 2 (also, the shippers of Jack/Ianto). Critical reception to it was highly positive.

lol. I was being a bit hyperbolic, but I do generally think that CoE is some brilliant television. It's dark, but it explores the darkside of humanity in a really fascinating way. Like Jack isn't evil. But he still chose to give those children to this alien creature for the sake of sparing the rest of humanity.

Thanks for answering! I hadn't really thought about that since it aired. I might have to watch it again.
