Loved the second episode
Loved the city cardiff (i'm never going on a city trip to london again, it's all cardiff for me)
Loved the subject op the second episode, hmm, and good dialogs (You travel halfway through the universe to have great sex, and you still end up dying alone)

the humour wasn't really my type, i will have to get used to that.

I enjoyed it. It does have an X-Files meets Angel vibe to it moreso than an Ultraviolet vibe.

I actually hope the series makes it to SciFi instead of BBC America because if it ends up on BBCA, nobody will watch it, it won't be presented in widescreen format (just as they butchered Hex and Life on Mars televising it in pan & scan badness), and there will still be 5 minutes cut from it to make way for commercials.

Then again, BBCA might accidentally not bleep out the occassional F-bomb like they've missed a couple of times with Mile High.

Oh yeah, scifi has got to be insane not to be looking to grab this gem. I cant wait

Snife... none of the actors are good at acting? Well, this aint Shakespere but I thought they pulled in a great performance for the world they created. By that admission you must have hated The Unquiet Dead, The Empty Child, The Doctor Dances, Boom Town, Bad Wolf and The Parting of the Ways.

Lets not also forget that Suzie (played by Indira Varma)has had a nice little career with some very memorable roles most recently rememberable in Rome. SPOILER: Too bad she aint a regular on the show anymore.

PErsonally ithought this was a really well done show, i kinda get the buffy/xfiles feel from it. Yes its a bbc show from The Dr Who universe so it doesnt take itself too seriously. If you want your broody serous sci fi look to Galactica, Lost or Heroes (all of which are excellent), this is funny, well written and intersting you should all give it a try, though i expect it wont be to the taste of a lot of people.

I have to disagree - this show is awful, I watched both episodes to give it a fair chance and, while I like the idea and premise of doctor who for a more mature audience , nobody in this show is any good at acting so i'm not convinced by the characters, I will not be watching any more

I thought both eps were great, although the second was definitely ripped off from the film Lifeforce (without the naked alien) or an episode from the Outer Limits I remember from the '90s.

The problem when series' like The X Files, Outer Limits & Twilight Zone have already been made is that it's hard to be original in localised Sci-Fi, and I really wish RTD would get the Welsh crap out of his system & base it somewhere else in the UK.

doctor who is cerebral. He keeps his own counsel. He's got a dark sense of humor. Jokes but never talks about anything personal. Only very slowly confides in ppl. Captain Jack is the Anti-Doctor Who.

The show doesnt work. Except to Captain Jack fans. The rest of the team is power rangery. The plots are..ugh. But I didnt enjoy the first season of Angel either. Here's hoping somefin' changes.

The first ep was ok, as generally the establishing eps for a new series tend to be. Some funny bits, like the quip outside the pub when the officer comments to Gwen:

"CSI: Cardiff - I'd like to see that, they'll be measuring the velocity of a kebab!"

Speaking of Gwen, she's quite a cutie. :) So, I watched the second ep with some anticipation.

Holy crap, can a new series totally go down the toilet in only its second episode? Well, if anyone can pull it off, RTD can! Admittedly, he doesn't share the writing credits for this one, but it's got his fingerprints all over it.

We start with the lamest intro voiceover I've heard in recent times - pure tripe: "Outside the government (and the UN) and beyond the police" - sheesh! If that's so, what gives the organisation any authority or jurisdiction? And yet being so secretive and beyond the government, et al, the police still seem to know who they are and simply allow them to take over (without any attempt at offering ID of any kind).

And then we're treated to something we've never seen before. A gas-like alien inhaled by a girl which then takes over said girl. :rolleyes: And here's the kicker - it does so, so that it can feed on all that yummy sex 'energy'! Yup, that's why I'd develop interplanetary travel, in the hope of finding another lifeform with whom I can rub uglies!

Jesus, it's like Men In Black meets Queer As Folk! With a liberal sprinkling of Doctor Who (Gwen a.k.a. Rose, a normal everyday chick who finds herself in an extraordinary situation with a boring as stale bread boyfriend - whom she will likely lose interest in. It's already been mentioned in ep 1 how exciting the job is and how could you possibly do anything else afterwards?).

If this is the shape of things to come, then I won't be watching for long...

Yes, the first part was slow, but then again the second part was way better. Altough I do have to say that Everything Changes felt alot like Rose, there was something about it, to tell you the truth when Gwen was well lurking about in an obviously seal off, do not enter, what the hell are you doing in there get the frak out, I was expecting her to go all "is there someone lurking about?" but thank god it wasn't done....

I'm enjoying this, but it's making me look forward to december, which I hate, just for the good doctor to return
