There is no fairy tale in this world

Torchwood, a spin-off of dw, the protagonist is Jack, who appears in dw, and Martha, who I love, is a guest star. I knew the existence of torchwood when I first watched dw, but I haven't had much enthusiasm to watch it. Now I fell in love at first sight, and my love was so exhausted that I burst into tears.
Because two protagonists died at the end of the second season, and the entire drama has always been abusive team members. I watch less of the show, so is it really good to poke people's hearts in every episode?
Some people said before that dw can be regarded as all-age-oriented but more child-oriented, so the adult-oriented torch wood scale of the derivative drama is biubiubiu. After reading it, I feel that this statement still makes sense. From the beginning, Gwen and sisters The kiss was stunned to see Tosh and the female alien calmly going to bed, and later on, these are not a problem, but in fact, it is more of a story for adults. Torchwood does not believe in fairy tales and does not believe in the Virgin. So it looks really cool and uncomfortable.

This point can actually be seen from the character setting. I watch TV dramas seldom. Except for impunity, which is a kind of competition-type drama, I have never seen such a discordant group inside, and all the members of the group have an annoying side. When I first saw Torchwood, I couldn’t help but want to shoot someone to death after a while. At the end of the first season, I couldn’t wait for them to be wiped out. Jack had been down for eight lifetimes and met such a group of pig teammates. And I believed when Owen picked up the gun. He really hates Jack. But ah, but such a group of people have their own pitifulness and loveliness. And when I saw the flashback of everyone's personal experience at the end of the second season, I was relieved. The group that is so simple to organize, has no heart, and is so stressed, can't be too demanding that they are not.

My favorite in the group is Tosh. So after I haven't cried for a long time, I really cried like a fool when I saw the end of the second season in the middle of the night.
Tosh is actually a very Asian girl. She dresses plainly and conservatively to a bit old-fashioned and ugly. Generally speaking, she is soft-hearted and unconfident and easily compromised. She has a lot of worries and needs affirmation from others, so she will easily be satisfied and happy. But I was very proud of my field of expertise. At that time, my whole body would shine when I laughed. In the end, the video she left on the computer also has her own style. In the episode with the female alien, she cried miserably, denying herself, denying human beings, being deceived, and being ridiculed inadvertently, full of suspicion and unconfidence. The most sad thing is that watching her cry and thinking that this world is like this, what she heard seems to be excessive, but isn't it like this? So, what then? That's it. What makes Tosh sad is falling in love with someone who is not a world. Oh, I'm not talking about Tommy, Tommy is a good person, I'm talking about Owen. What about a group? The careless Owen and Tosh are not people in the same world. Even the dedicated and serious Owen at the beginning would still not like Tosh. Whether he likes his fiancée or female pilot, they are all Mingyan's self-confident ones. And Tosh loves humble and silent, watching Owen dating one after another, listening to him intentionally or unintentionally stimulating her, in the end, he just silently gave himself a shot to help comfort Owen, what is his situation? Don't say anything. This is also the reason why I cried into a stupid, it's so distressed.

Owen... Can I say that I always thought Owen was the character of a wretched man? I was stunned when I saw Gwen fucking with him, and I was stunned when I saw Tosh liked him. , I only accepted the setting when I saw that the female pilot was in love with him. It turned out that he is not a funny character, but he is really romantic to attract girls. I was so shocked. To interrupt, the female pilot is so beautiful and temperamental, and there is no sense of contradiction with the setting, and I can completely believe that she has traveled through that era. As for Owen, it was probably because the initial impression was too deep. Even if the plot behind him was good, and his fancy mouth was washed out, his appearance in a suit and woolen sweater was okay, but he still didn't like him. Your own misfortune is not a basis for hurting others and not believing in others, is it?

Gwen&Rhys
A lot of people hate Gwen, think she is ugly and not well set up, and she is selfish as she keeps doing wrong things that drag the group down. To tell the truth, she is really ugly when her eyes are wide open and her teeth are exposed, but in fact, it's okay when her mouth is expressionless. As for doing wrong things that drag down the group and selfishness, after seeing her cheating and cheating on Rhys while feeding Rhys amnesia medicine while crying and saying forgive me, it is indeed disgusting, but ah, other things that I did are actually understandable. After all, people are always selfish, right? And there are some things that make her happy at the end of her face being beaten. For example, the mother of the missing child said to her, assure me that you will not do that cruel thing to the rest of the people.

Rhys is actually a surprise. The family members of the group who felt so fat and incompatible with Torchwood at first would surely lose their cannon fodder in the end. But actually, Rhys is awesome. Gwen said who could know that I lied to him to be in danger every day, pregnant with an alien creature and still marry me? Rhys is a very ordinary person, and what Gwen can talk about is the parents' shortcomings. Later, Gwen can't be attracted to Gwen, but ah, Rhys said a very awesome thing. He asked Gwen what are you doing in Torchwood? Don’t you fight alien creatures to protect everyone’s daily life? Let everyone get married and have children. This is the most important thing. Now that you’re off work, enjoy your life and save the world. Do you do well during working hours? ! Wow, this can actually be regarded as the theme of Torchwood. When Gwen first entered Torchwood, she asked the others in Torchwood, are you all single? Are you lonely? People in Torchwood, there are so many words that no one can speak. This kind of life is too exciting and charming, but also too lonely. So Jack said to Gwen, promise me to live your normal life. Balance work and life well.

Ianto
Ianto is a very good person. I have always liked to be a logistical character. It feels good to leave it to him behind the scenes. Although he was unpleasant at first, I said that at the beginning of the show, everyone didn’t agree. Pleasing. Ianto's character has always been very soft, but Ianto in the end of the second season is very handsome. Sure enough, the feeling of self-confidence is the best. Except where he and Jack met for the first time, the relationship between him and Jack was not so cute later, because it felt like getting along was not so equal. So many people like him and Jack's CP and I don't have much feeling. The only thing that pokes me is probably when Ianto doubts himself, Jack insists that he is not that kind of person.

Jack
Torchwood can actually take many aliases, such as Jack's 108-style death by pattern. I really don't bother to count how many times Jack has died. For example, Jack, how many true loves do you have? One after another, one death after another, such as missing the doctor between the lines. Even if the doctor does not appear in the whole show, Jack really wants to mention him. Everyone knows that this is Jack's favorite.
All in all, Torchwood is all about torturing Jack's heart and body, by the way, patching DW how much Jack loves the doctor and how much he does for the doctor. How many people can understand a person with infinite life? How much pain will you encounter? How many people can you love and how many people will you lose? How many things can you do wrong? In short, it is torture, distressed, distressed, distressed.

Martha
finally got to my favorite Martha. Not long after Martha appeared, Jack asked her, do you miss the doctor, Martha said occasionally, just a little bit, but it was my own choice. Tears are almost coming out.
I have always felt that the difference between Torchwood and DW is almost the same as the difference between Martha and Rose.
Martha is more sensible. She has seen that the wider world, apart from curiosity and fascination, always has a thread on the earth to hold her. She cannot always travel with the doctor. The family needs her because she will return to the earth when she is implicated. , Return to life. Even if she loves the doctor, she loves to travel with the doctor.
Rose is a passionate and loving person, and the days she and the doctor are together are more of a surprise.
So instead of DW traveling through different planets and ages, always able to overcome dangers and meet beautiful people and things, TW knows what kind of world there is outside the earth, but they are only in Cardiff, racking their brains for a crack. Paying their lives, many of their opponents are just the weevil in the basement. The end of many events is always full of compromises and regrets, and their goal is only for mankind and prepare for the 21st century.
DW and TW actually have two very similar stories, both of which are about the destruction of an alien creature by humans. The ending of DW is that this meek alien creature actually came to help humans. Humans don’t have to be like this. The end of the story, Large and docile creatures like whales are taking humans to swim into the future in space. In TW, alien creatures that strayed into the earth were tortured by accident. TW had no choice but to euthanize it. It can be regarded as the representative of the two dramas DW and TW with distinctive styles.

Except for the end of the season, Torchwood 1-2 seasons are all one episode and one story. 3 is a season with a total of five episodes telling a story, and 4 is a season with a total of ten episodes telling a story.
1-2 is actually a bit long, and the special effects are a bit clumsy. I have seen the first two seasons of dw and understand, but my favorite of Torchwood is 1-2, because the team members are all there, and the storytelling is very simple. neat. Although some of them are not very round, but basically every episode has a point that pokes me very much, I recommend it, especially S1E07 Greeks Bearing Gifts, S1E10 Out of Time, S2E12 Fragments, S2E13 Exit Wounds.
The truth in the third season is actually very old-fashioned, but the rhythm and plot are pretty good. I like that ending, which is actually great as the ending of the entire Torchwood.
It’s a pity that we filmed the fourth season. Seeing that it was cut directly, I know that the fourth season is a shitty. The battle line is too long and the plot is not beautiful enough. Except for the two new girls who are pretty good-looking, they also got the lunch box for no reason. This season is basic. No other highlights, oh, one of Jack’s true love is pretty handsome...
