I gave this one a three, though perhaps it deserved a 4. I think it did a great job of setting up the series and I think it did a great job of letting the fans know that this show wasn't safe and that anyone could snuff it. They did some brilliantly clever promotion by including Suzie in all the promotion material and in the stuff at the beginning of the episode, then bam! Just as you are starting to like her she blows her brains out. If that isn't making an entrance then I don't know what is.

I gave this a four. I think it did a good job of introducing the world of Torchwood, both as a spin off and as it's own show. I think some bits of it were a bit silly as they went a bit too far trying to seperate it from Doctor Who, like with the swearing for instance. I don't mind swearing but it was a bit jarring in this because it felt forced in as though to say 'look how grown up we are' as apposed to it actually needing to be in there.

I'm with you there PP. Did a good job at introducing Torchwood to viewers.... *feels bad how it's rated a 15 and I was only 13 when it started* Put off a little from the swearing (still am to this day  Never swear  ) But yeah, it was pretty good, so giving it a 4. |

This one gets full marks. I thought it was a great introduction and I like it a lot more the more I see it, especially all the Suzie stuff. It's much better when you see They Keep Killing Suzie and see all the links

This one gets a four. Again, it wasnt amazing but it got the show off to a good start and did what it needed to to set everything up
