I love that you wrote this. I came into Torchwood via COE and I enjoyed it - I was quite pissed off that four episodes in and they killed the one M/M couple I'd ever seen on tv outside of QAF and had a right old strop in the middle of my lounge, but... it's what grabbed my attention, so I can't hate on it like I've seen others do.
As for MD - I'm looking forward to it, but in the sense that it's going to be a new show, not the one I got hooked on.
I always thought that if a series 4 were to go ahead, we'd be seeing how Torchwood rebuilds. I love 'Monster of the Week' - it's what drew me to Buffy and Angel, and it's something that Whedon proved you could run in conjunction with a more over-arcing story-line. Each episode had a monster of the week, but there were still ties to a 'Big Bad' for the season closers.
