GOOD or BAD: Special Torchwood Edition

You may notice a small change to the poll format this time. I know it goes against the spirit of GOOD or BAD, but I think that Torchwood deserves it.

[Poll #899571]

If you can't remember what some of the episodes were about, I'm certainly not going to be so cruel as to remind you. Except for this.

EDIT: THE LIST OF SHAME
[livejournal.com profile] fba thinks "Everything Changes", "Ghost Machine", "Small Worlds", "Countrycide", "Greeks Bearing Gifts", "Out of Time" and "Captain Jack Harkness" are GOOD.
[livejournal.com profile] pikelet thinks "Cyberwoman" is GOOD (although I'm almost certain he's being ironic, the scamp)
[livejournal.com profile] veggiesu thinks "Random Shoes" and "Captain Jack Harkness" are GOOD, even though she hasn't seen them.
I think "Out of Time" is GOOD
[livejournal.com profile] swisstone thinks "Small Worlds", "Out of Time" and "Captain Jack Harkness" are GOOD.
[livejournal.com profile] ajr thinks "Out of Time" is GOOD. He also does not think that "End of Days" is DREADFUL. However, [livejournal.com profile] blackbeltbarbie thinks "End of Days" is GOOD.

I saw somewhere that he is some known Doctor Who creature and that therefore the Doctor clearly planned everything and resurrected Jack because he knew this moment would come to pass. Or something. Which just makes everything so much worse.

Eh? That is fanwank of the highest order.

a) The Doctor didn't rez him it was SuperRose
b) It was described as the son of The Beast - which vaguely ties it in with The Satan Pit but not very much.

Well, that's a minor positive, I guess.

Minor positive: the fanwank made it even worse. Hmmm.

But the Doctor didn't resurrect Jack, Rose did. And none of that was planned, or am I missing something?

You are missing the terror that is Doctor Who fanwank.

Unsurprisingly Chibnall is a Who fan of the rather rabid variety - which is why his episodes were unmitigated badfic.
