How About No More Drinking at Meetings?

I purchased Watchmen last week or whenever it came out and have been watching it repeatedly since then, taking breaks for Dollhouse and some Dr. Who. I don't really understand Dr. Who love. I like the show alright, but I can go either way. It never seems to go deep enough for me, but the same could be said for Torchwood. The difference between

Yeah, Star Trek has ruined me momentarily. I'm watching the original serieso online quite consistently and buying up a bunch of the books. It's sad, but what can I say? It was AWESOME. The original series was always my mother's Star Trek and was something I liked due to her influence and the few movies, but I'd never seen the series itself -- I was a Next Generation girl. It's like I'm discovering stuff I already knew, in a way, and it's lovely.

Captain Jack is awesome! I adore him. I thought it was interesting to see him as Torchwood!Jack and then Doctor Who!Jack. They are different people, that's for sure.

Oh god, yeah, the uneven storytelling is awful in Torchwood at times. But some of the episodes just rip right through me. I liked second season as a season better than I liked the first, but my favorite episodes are in the first (I love 'Countrycide" and "Captain Jack Harkness" and whatever that damn fairy one was...I was TERRIFIED OF THE DAMN FAIRIES).

I haven't seen Donna, save for the one episode in which she was a bride. She was hilarious when she was around. I will give the fourth series a shot -- I rely heavily on chemistry between characters and episodes that bring that connection to light for me to like a particular series, and I thought that was lacking in the third season but it sounds like the fourth season has a little more awesome, so I'm down!

Oh god, I want to ask you about Children of Earth but I must hold myself back! I've heard it was amazing.
