Taak Farst Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 YAY!!!!!! As a doctor who mega fan I had to make this..and no doubt The Doctor will make a post soon SJA is back! I dint particularly enjoyed S1 but I watched the last sontaran pt 1 and pt 2 and I think it was quite good..for a little kid programme anyway. I may watch this clown one coming up - seems interesting - and I crap my pants at clowns... And now to Torchwood! For those who dunno official news was posted on BBC.co.uk/torchwood (official site) saying that Series 3 will indeed be reality. Only consisting of 5 episodes in consecutive weeks, and with the same story, I hope its good Due to transmit in 2009 on BBC One, the series - called Torchwood: Children Of Earth - sees the team embarking on a single action-packed adventure as they battle for the future of the human race against the most fierce force they have encountered. The highly motivated Torchwood team are John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness, Eve Myles as Gwen Cooper, and Gareth David-Lloyd as Ianto Jones. Other regular cast involved in their high-octane adventure are Kai Owen as Rhys Williams, Gwen's husband, and Tom Price as PC Andy. WAAA no owen or toshiko... So I bold 2 important bits - A) comin in 09 B) THE SERIES HAS A BLOODY NAME! DISCUSS! AND YOU, THE DOCTOR, IF U DONT POST IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS I FALLEN OUT WIT U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Not more Torchwood... I really want to hurt Russel T Davies at times like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Somehow...I knew you would pop in a comment like that sooner or l8r I gave it a chance... I liked it at first. But one too many Destroyer of Worlds, homosexual encounters and erratic car chases involving blowfish killed it in my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, were all different....and btw, there can neva be enough "erratic car chases involving blowfish" in my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Any posts serving to do nothing more than bash Davies are not constructive, and will be reported. I'm sick of people bitching about the guy. He's no worse than George Lucas. Get over it or don't bother posting. *breath* I don't care for the Sarah Jane Adventures, but I've been pumped for season three of Torchwood since the beginning of the second - specifically, the second episode, Sleeper. I know there's no evidence to support the idea, but I'd love it if the Torchwood mini-series in '09 were about the Sleeper Cell aliens. That story has the potential for some serious long-term villains in the future. EDIT: Twenty minutes, biotch. No falling out for me. w00tw00t!

The Doctor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 It's just a joke... apologies if I offended you. It's ok, it wasn't you personally. It's an a number of people, some around here and some elsewhere that have just gotten on my last nerve about it. Apology accepted. Actually, he is. At least Davies has the brains to surround himself with writers like Steven Moffat. Lucas is an arrogant prick who won't let anyone else write a damn thing, because Heaven forbid they outshine his feeble skills. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Thank you, Doc. Well, the first and only time i've ever seen anything to do with SJA was the Doctor Who finale... So I have no idea about it - plus i'm at college when it's been on. I'll watch S3 or Torchwood, in the interests of giving it a clean break... I enjoyed Series 1up until all the clock man stuff. I'm not one to refuse a second chance, and if it's sticking to one, solid story throughout it might be worth watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 The first season was shaky, at best. The second was much improved, and if the third takes the plot-course I've been fantasising about for months now, 3 will be better yet. A major cell of the Sleepers could stir up quite a bit of excitement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Sleepers? Weren't they those things that had the weird sword arms? The ones the Army couldn't take down? That's the only episode I actually liked last season, so if it's about them I might have a reason for watching... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerbieZ Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Torchwood, i love the soundtrack to it but the show itself is magicarp. I tried to watch Sarah Jane Adventures too but i think it's way too old for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 ...He's no worse than George Lucas. Get over it or don't bother posting.... Here's some things RTD needs to to before he can even be worthy of mention alongside GL *Finance research and development of new film making techniques with proceeds from his own films *Lead the way for use of digital video in movie making. *Lobby for directors rights, and a decreased artistic stranglehold by major studios. *Support creative artists internationally, in diverse media with the establishment of Lucasarts, Pixar, Singapore Animation Studio, Skywalker Ranch & ILM, Lucasbooks Russel T Davies... indeed, he has helped breath new life into DW, but I daresay the visual effects (which GL was the progenitor of) have helped add to the mass appeal the show has today. OT: CapN Jack is my favourite character in the Whoniverse, even more than the Doctor himself. Hence, I am excited Torchwood is coming back. SJA was cool, best kids show ever I loved how they integrated it into the finale of the last season. I also think SJA is pretty sexeh for an older broad mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Can we at least agree that neither of them is exactly the best writer in the world, and that stating said fact over and over again in the same thread gets redundant to the point where it threatens to pop one of my veins? As for Jack, I must admit that he is pretty badass. Definitely my favourite character - following the Doctor, I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adavardes Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Torchwood - Awesome, mostly for Jack Harkness. The character is absolutely amazing. Barrowman does a fantastic job. Sara Jane Adventures - No. Just... no. No, never, no. The show is silly, the situations are silly, and the whole concept of it is silly, and the fact that it's a kid's show is no excuse. Mr. Smith makes me want to punch babies, and Elisabeth Sladen, somewhere between her first guest appearance on the new Doctor Who and the first series of the Sarah Jane Adventures, became an melodramatist that cries at the drop of a hat. She used to be a fantastic actress, and I have no idea what happened to her, but that's gone now. Either you dislike the show or you're wrong. That's it. I've drawn the line, let's do battle.

Adavardes Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 ... Okay, wow. 1. I was on topic, giving my opinion on the two shows. I will be watching Torchwood, won't be watching SJA. I'm really not going to apologize for what I think about the shows, and I'm very sorry if you disagree with me, but I'm not changing it. 2. The last line was a joke. I'll add a smilie on the end if you'd like me to make that clear. Now we can get back to topic. I never really got into Torchwood up until recently, so I'm looking to be more learned on the show when the next series comes out. I doubt they can do much wrong with Jack Harkness, but I'll knock on wood just the same. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerbieZ Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Now, now. None of this, or i'll turn this car right round and no moon trip for either of you. You know, out of all this i still think they could milk another spinoff out of Doctor Who. Maybe one more serious. Not BSG serious but something in a different realm of believability. I'd be all for it. The thing is, with two other shows in the franchise. They could use all three to shape up any show they want. They make a good springboard. Good times ahead.

The Doctor Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I quite agree. Not very Whovian of either of you. And I'd be more than happy to see another Whoniverse series. Possibly something about UNIT. I've always loved UNIT. They'd have to bring Nicholas Courtney in for at least the pilot. Lethbridge-Stewart was awesome.

RedHawke Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Taak I don't know if you realized it but it was you who was doing the attacking here, people have a right to their opinions and Adavardes stated his/hers no need to attack people here. Ok? I have deleted your quite rude post, but will leave the others for now. Carry on people... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Can we at least agree that neither of them is exactly the best writer in the world... GL is a perfect example of how writing a story versus a screenplay are two quite different things How many people have taken cracking good stories and destroyed them with their 'treatments' mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
