...that THE DOCTOR'S UNIT who in previous episodes was ready to blow up the earth rather than have the human race enslaved, would not even try anything aside from handing over the children, like, wtf? IT WAS STUPID.
It was great if you've never seen Torchwood or Doctor Who but just sort of...heard of them. CoE was well-directed and engrossing, but there were a ton of plot holes.
Can't really disagree with a thing in your post, except I do think the amount of death was gratuitous (Steven - or is it Stephen?) would have been enough, I think. Ianto? We just lost Tosh and Owen. There's hardly anyone left.
If we use the divine metaphor, where you are the god of this world you've created, I demand that you be the kind of god that cares for the fall of a sparrow as much as for the death of a star. Or a person.
It's weird, I think, to create characters from nothing and then take glee in killing them off for the sake of drama, when there are more interesting ways of doing that.
Guess the problem is that we loved them more than Rusty did.
