Torchwood review

[iainjclark]

My review of the Torchwood season finale is up¹ at Strange Horizons today, should you feel yourself overcome with curiosity...

I believe torchwood_three is our last, best hope for slapfights.

I have duly emailed them.

Although really, as I think I said before, surely the way to start a slapfight about Torchwood is to say that it's good?

They didn't use the link! Bastards.

What does it take to start a slapfight with these people?!

Maybe the internet has finally evolved beyond the need for slapfights. The alternative is that we lack the necessary skills to get people to argue about Torchwood, which is pretty scary.

More gallingly they *have* just included a link to syfyportal's disconcertingly positive review of the final two episodes (including dwarves, apparently).

I've emailed them about Strange Horizons myself to see if that helps!

I think it has done: I just got confirmation that they're going to use the link today. Alternatively, maybe they just get vastly more email that we imagine.

Yes, me too!

Judging from the scary amount of fanfic this is certainly possible.

And it seems to have generated two new comments already ...

internet goggles strike again.

Ooh, thanks for those. I'm pleased the review is getting noticed, although one of them didn't read past the second paragraph. :-)
