I liked Dr Who, it had decent acting and likeable characters and a sense of humor.
Tourchwood i found almost unwatchable. The characters are dull and unlikeable, you don't care if they live or die, they are UNBELIEVABLY stupid and dear god but the acting is bad.
And they try to develop this sense of menance, which just comes across as boredom.
Add to this the fact that it just doesn't tally with what 'Torchwood' is meant to be in the Dr Who series.
Maybe it will get better when (if) they develop some sort fo story arc other than 'ooooh, captain jack fancies her and she's got a BOYFRIEND who doesn't know what she DOES'.

That's just so lame, and derivative.
