Torchwood is very stylish, lots of aerial shots of building in Cardiff, the Welsh city where the series is filmed and most of the action takes place. Its waterside features remind me of New Orleans. Another anchor location of the show in Cardiff is soooo appropriately the Roald Dahl Plaza (Carciff-born creator of Willy Wonka) it would naturally hold a time-space rift and the headquarters of a secret organization under the fountain where it can monitor extra-terrestrial traffic through the rift. Kind of a sexed up Men in Black, except no one wears black, well ok Iantos does, but he's more of a case manager type. The series music co-composed by Dr. Who's Murray Gold is both edgy and original. As is the special effects and make-up. In the pilot episode, the make-up on the Weevil, a reoccurring species, is so good that a long scene is shot in full-light with Gwen and another character studying the creature.

I never got into the X-Files, but I love Torchwood! It's smart, funny, and a little bit naughty. The science fiction parts are always interesting, sometimes scary and usually pretty cool. All the characters are well developed, well written and well acted. The show is anything but predictable. Many times, the show goes in an unexpected direction and really keeps you on your toes. Russell T Davies is a genius. I've even started watching Doctor Who for some of the background to Torchwood. Can't wait until Torchwood - Season 4 comes out !
