Yeah, I really enjoyed it... in a depressing kinda way. There are people out there pulling apart the plot holes, when all I can think is that it's Who-verse. The point isn't the perfect sense as to the how and why, but, in this case, the moralistic complexity of the situation.
And they've ended up forming so many parallels between the Doctor and Jack. People are saying they've turned Jack into a monster, but, the Doctor destroyed his entire race in order to take out the Dalek and end the war and people think of him as a tragic hero. Plus Jack always was morally ambiguous from day 1. It was the people around him that kept him grounded in normal human morality and after Ianto, Owen and Tosh... Well it made me all teary... and it was Torchwood, making me teary. Unheard of.
The more I think about it, the more brain-frying the plot was... I can't imagine how I'd react to any of it given a similar situation. It was amazing, seriously amazing and I'm blown away that Torchwood has gone from silly crack to Wow in three seasons. :)
It's nice that you liked Lois too. I've only read bad comments about her. :( The acting was top notch from everyone in my opinion. :)
