Torchwood is better. Both are set in the city I live in, but Torchwood is better.

^Torchwood doesn't have a lot of The Doctor, so I can't get into it.

I've personally been a huge fan of David Tennant's version of The Doctor, and I'm a little hesitant about the next evolution... But I suppose I had better give it a fair chance.

^Strangely that's what so many people said about DT.

The Christmas Episode "The End of Time" was so drawn out, it was great, just drawn out. Can't wait for New Years.

Torchwood is just as good as Doc Who.

The End of Time Part 1 was great. I really liked the moment when:

[spoiler]The Master caught The Doctor after having hit him with those energy beams[/spoiler]

I've got Part 2 set to DVR.

Because it's now making Cardiff look cool, because of the Aliens, a Time Riff, and a super secret organisation living there. Rather than, before Torchwood, all that was known about Cardiff, was dirt and sheep buggery.

Just watched it...I teared up. They really did a good job of wrapping up everything, except for

[Spoiler] Rose. I mean, yeah, it's already been wrapped up, but it doesn't really count if the Doctor's seeing her before she knew him. [/Spoiler]

Also, I think that it was a bit too sad, the Doctor being all like

[Spoiler] "I don't want to go!" Maybe everyone wouldn't have been so sad about it if the Doctor didn't make it so sad. [/Spoiler]

Very good, though. AMAZING!

By the way, [Spoiler] Who the crap was that Time Lord lady that appeared on the TV? Maybe they'll explain it later. [/Spoiler]

[spoiler]My first guess was that it was his mother, but then I thought about it and I think I remember him saying he had a wife in "The Doctor's Daughter." I could be way off, though.[/spoiler]

^ [Spoiler] Heh, actually, it is his mother. I learned that a fan asked the producer who she was, and the producer said that it was his mother. I know, WOW! Hopefully she'll return from before the time that she and the Time Lords get killed by the Daleks. [/Spoiler]
