Eh. Didn’t think too highly of this Episode. In principle, I should like the Episode, but it just doesn’t work for me, and I am not even sure how to properly articulate why.
I can see what it has going, but I don’t necessarily think it does it well. And honestly this isn’t an Episode that I am particular fond or feel strong about either way, it’s on the verge of “average” on a kind day. But for now I think it’s just rate very middling. Really, “meh” does describe it the best. A bit unremarkable, really.
Glad to see some were able to enjoy it!
A very uncomfortable episode, however unlike Cyberwoman, I think it was intentional this time. Quite a morbid and bleak episode, going to be honest, I was rooting for the fairies. When the step-father was killed, what a cathartic feeling; but once the mother starts screaming as she watches her daughter be taken away, my heart broke, and the rest of Torchwood shunning Jack for allowing it to happen. I understand now why Jack feels so alone even among the team, he is burdened with knowledge and experiences that no one else could, the wisdom to understand that sometimes you only have bad options, he reminds me quite a bit of the Doctor.
This episode made me feel complex feelings, and for that I give it 3.5/5.
