I do agree that it felt notably sci-fi-less. My initial reaction was just "what?! it's just a bunch of humans! what the hell is Torchwood doing there?" However Jack jumping in and kicking everyone's ass was highly enjoyable, you must admit.

Oh yeah it was enjoyable, just sort of deux ex . I have to edit in some Scarface quotes to that scene I think.

It doesn't really matter to me... MI7 said it best when he said he wants science fiction in his sci-fi. I feel the same.

Uh, as I recall it said in the description that this show isn't total Sci-Fi. I thought it was a welcome change from doomsday aliens.

Thank you very much, MI7! See, Ross, it is considered both science fiction and crime drama, which means it should have both and not just one of them!

Over a series, not one programme...when aliens kill, it can't be considered a crime because they're alien.....they don't live by our laws.

He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic to topic so that no one had a chance to interrupt him it was really quite hypnotic.

"Pwned" is the "l33t" form of "owned."
