Review - Torchwood: The Blood Line

[ed_rex]

Where have you gone, Russell T, Russell T?

 

One of the most shockingly bad television series in recent memory crawled to a bloody close on Friday night.

The end of Torchwood: Miracle Day was not quite as obscenely amusing as some had predicted, but its climax prompted laughter in this reviewer, not tears.

No dangling plot-lines were tied up, no extraneous characters rescued from irrelevancy. The program is over — and so too, probably, is the franchise — but not even the most generous critic could with a straight face say that it was concluded.

Snark? Oh yes. For snark and bullet points and a reviewer's exhausted post-mortem, visit, Where have you gone, Russell T, Russell T?

I defy anybody to say that this pile of foetid dingos kidneys is canon, because it's not. It didn't happen in Doctor Who. Jack was simply a time travelling, mortal conman until Rose looked into the heart of the TARDIS to go back and save him and the Doctor, and then suddenly he couldn't die. That is canon and Rusty can bite me :P
