What Eryn Can't Watch...
Kyle told me that Jonny wasn't allowed to watch Torchwood, it was perhaps a bit too adult, I thought, it's Welsh BBC, how much more adult can it be than Doctor Who? Eryn can watch that. Well, in the second episode where there's a big sex scene and the thrusting man engaged in random bathroom sex dissolves into a golden shower/pearl necklace of energy all over the orgasming lady-possessed-by-an-alien...I'm pretty sure at a minimum, that's where it gets too adult. I'm glad I was previewing it on my bicycle rather than with her in the frontroom. On a learning note, I had NO idea Cardiff was as big as it was until I saw pictures in Torchwood of the city from above. Wikipedia puts the greater Cardiff area at 1.1 million people. Damn sizeable (althrough apparently only 1/3 the size of Minneapolis-St. Paul, but we have the advantage of two cities and two sets of burbs...but no aliens angling for golden showers).

See? Torchwood just gets far more into the actual mechanics of human (or human-alien) interaction, whereas Doctor Who seems to be content to leave it as a more abstract concept. A much more manageable perspective for the younger set, really.
