Torchwood was Doctor Who's first 'proper' spinoff, so how did 'Everything Changes' use the strengths of 'Rose' to establish the show?

To be fair he's right, in at least one way: Computers. Since Moore's Law (yes I know it isn't a law, just an observation) is probably going to end in the next decade, and so much of our technological advances can be put down to advances in computers, so by the 2030s if we don't find any new advancements in maybe material science to offset the fact that we can't shrink transistors anymore, basically our computing will ground to a halt and computers will become like watches, where you could buy one and know you could pass it to your kids and they could still use it. Computers will become like that, static and unchanging, except maybe the odd difference here or there. (though even when Moore's Law ends I still say we could then advance price instead of transistor size, like even if transistor's can't be shrunk anymore, doesn't mean that manufacturing can't be improved to lower the cost of the same sized transistor. So there is room for advancement there)

@@Freak80MC transistor density isn't the be all and end all of computer science, y'know. Make systems and the software that runs on them more efficient. Even now, a lot is being handled by the cloud, that's likely to take the strain more and more too, resulting in less of a need for powerful processors locally. There's probably a dozen different paths today's tech could take that doesn't involve Moore.

I think it was very interesting to do spin offs like Torchwood and Sarah Jane Adventures and for a while the whoniverse existed without The Doctor being there showing he cant always save earth from the monsters. Its a shame Elizabeth Sladen died and that Torchwood kinda ran out steam and funding. Class tried to be a inbetween Torchwood and Sarah Jane Adventures. It didnt really work to well and wasnt advertised really well. Some people me included didnt even know it was on until after it finished. Its a shame theres probably no Spin-offs to really make anymore outside of audios because theres no real characters who really stand out to get them anymore. Some people think Torchwood could return after the last special but i dont see it happening tbh i just think it was a nod more than a hint

It's such a shame they advertised Class so poorly. When I finally realised it existed I watched it and absolutely loved it, it was enough DW to be interesting but far darker and cooler. I'd love to have 2nd season, especially since the 1st ended on a cliffhanger (plus a darker viewpoint of the angels would've been awesome to see), but I don't think there's enough demand for it.

In Germany (and additionally Austria because we watch German TV), they showed season 1 and 2 of new who in the afternoon for a short time. Enough of to get me hooked but barely anyone cared. Than much later on a completely different channel they started torchwood. It was quite popular. It was funny to find people online asking if it's ever explained who Jack is, why he's immortal. They had never heard of Doctor Who and had no idea its a spinn off

How can you say Suzie wasn't evil? She killed people just so she could research the resurrection gauntlet. That's how little value she put on human life. For me, that's evil.

I was a big Torchwood fan, and this episode was the hook (and got us by sex gas). The actress for Gwen is fantastic (as seen in Broadchurch 2 and some BBC Wales shows), and she is so relatable. The fact she isn't a Hollywood beauty (the teeth alone makes her feel Welsh...and I say that as a Welshman). Suzie did make the episode excellent with that ending. It wasn't an A, but as series launches...pretty darn good. Too bad we didn't get more series with the main cart...or more episodes at all.

K9 and Company is really worth checking out. I only say this because the DVD commentary has Elisabeth Sladen, John Leeson and a couple of others making sarcastic comments for the entire episode. It's GLORIOUS.

I'm glad your finally doing "Torchwood" reviews! I'm so happy! :) Also "Torchwood" was the show that initially got me into "Doctor Who" (well NuWho). And I just loved everything about it. I mean, yeah sure, sometimes the show can be a bit corny and stuff (but Russel T. Davies was always somewhat known to be corny with his writing, at least on "Doctor Who". So I don't know why that would surprise anyone.). Another thing I find weird is that the "Day One" of "Torchwood" has a "Sex Alien" as it's main villain in the episode. Why does that surprise anyone? I mean sure, it is a little bit weird, but it is a show involving aliens, sex, and violence. So an alien that incorporates pretty much all of that stuff doesn't seem that weird to me. 😕🤷‍♀️ But whatever. Also am I the only one who loves/prefers the 1st Series of "Torchwood" to the 2nd Series (Not counting "Children of Earth")? I thought it had some great episode's. But to each his/her own I guess. And lastly one of my dream top fictional jobs to this day...is to work in the ORIGINAL "Torchwood" Hub (of Series 1 &2, and a little of 3). Just saying. And as unpopular opinion as this is, I would actually prefer that instead of being The Doctor's companion.

Just finished watching it for the first time very impressed with the quality it had as a spinoff. My my word Children of Earth is outstanding TV and scarily similar to current events in certain aspects (miracle day also).

I recently watched all of Torchwood because they are all on iPlayer and i really enjoyed them. I was too young for them when they were first broadcast cus they are more adult and stuff and i was like 9 but like now I really enjoy the series. It's cool and very actiony. Children Of Earth was dark but brilliantly written and acted. Miracle Day. interesting concept, fell flat on the execution somewhat..
