So I’m in virgin territory now as I start Series 2. Watched Episode 1: Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang and had a blast. The pre-credit sequence was just a lot of fun. Having only encountered Captain John Hart in the recent Dark Gallifrey War Master trilogy, this is my proper introduction to the character. And he is amazingly fun. I really can’t wait for him to return. We also get a mention of Gray (yes, I know who that is, I’ve read the wiki) and thus the series arc starting early. This was definitely a 5/5 for me, I just had a blast with this one.

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is definitely where Torchwood seems to come into its own
Don’t get me wrong, I love all of season one, but season two is where I feel they finally figured out what they wanted the show to be and I can understand why a lot of people prefer from then onwards

Happy to see the love for Random Shoes. I completely agree and I never ever got the negativity directed towards this episode. Whether or not it feels like a Torchwood episode (I do see @DispersalPhase’s point) is another debate. However, I’m hugely fond of the episode. Torchwood can do grim and cynical but it’s nice to have a story like this from time to time.
