Caught up on Miracle Day.
Sep. 9th, 2011 17:30Saw the latest Torchwood episode! So I'm ready for the last episode!
( Spoilers. )
After con, I've been thinking back to my crazy ~*FEELINGS*~ before Miracle Day began. I had a chat with one man in line about how he felt fine with Children of Earth...as the finale of Torchwood. It essentially killed off everything that was Torchwood, and as an ending it was fine. I thought that the way it left us with such an open ending was perfect, because I was able to figure out where I wanted it to go from there based on my understanding of the characters. (And I haven't read anyone else writing what I thought so far, so I guess that worked.) And I'm watching Miracle Day, and I'm enjoying it, but I think that, yeah. Children of Earth worked quite well as a capstone, in a way that Miracle Day doesn't. And maybe Miracle Day is really the start of a new series, and shouldn't be evaluated that way. I'm just pondering on it again, and hopefully I'll be able to collect my thoughts once this is over and we see where it's, y'know, going.
