http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/18/TORCHWOOD----Day-One.aspx At the end of last episode, Captain Jack (John Barrowman) offered Gwen (Eve Myles) a job with Torchwood. Of course, Gwen immediately takes it. This week, it’s her first day of work, and what a way to start! When the team goes to investigate a strange comet, Gwen accidentally lets out some glowing gas. Over and over again she apologizes to the team for doing something so careless. Everyone keeps telling her to stop saying she’s sorry, and when she finally gets the hint, Gwen utters words that are a sure sign of something menacing: “It’s just gas. How much damage can it really do?” Well, that pinkish glowing gas turns out to be a sex-addicted alien that gets its energy from orgasms. Oh yeah, and then it obliterates its victims when it’s done. Now Torchwood must find the woman whom the alien has inhabited and stop her from giving guys the last orgasm they’ll ever have. This episode kind of reminds me of the second episode of ANGEL called “Lonely Hearts” about an alien that inhabited humans and changed hosts during sex. Hmm…the first episode made me think about BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, and the second made me think of ANGEL. Gee, I need to get out more. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/18/TORCHWOOD----Day-One.aspx 77 60
