Really feels like a proper Torchwood third of a season. All the weird and goofy and sexy all feel downright RTD.

I wanted to rate this higher because I do love Torchwood but I found the last 2 stories were not great, and I don’t like that Gwen is mysteriously possessed for almost the whole thing.

Excellent addition to the Torchwood series (kinda) proper. In my head I've been calling this Torchwood: series 5, and it really is. The "Changes Everything" in reverse of the "Everything Changes" pilot was quite brilliant, in my opinion. But the real star of the show is the voice actor playing Gwen. If you didn't already hear about it, I bet I just surprised you by telling you, that was not actually Eve Myles! Eve has some bits that for spoilery reasons, I can't tell you what they are, but if you listen to the show, you'll understand exactly what I mean. And it works perfectly for random scifi reasons, but it is just weird. I genuinely thought I was listening to Eve Myles. The fact that I wasn't blows my mind. She's that good.
