From now on we know that "Monsters are real!" The newest Doctor Who episode was a bit creepy in my opinion and it had a nice twist. Stop reading now when you haven't watched the episode yet.
Summary:
The Doctor gets a distress call from George, a small boy who is scared of the monsters in his closet. His parents don't know how to help George any more and his father his quite happy when the Doctor arrives at his doorstep to solve the monster problem. Meanwhile Amy and Rory are in an elevator but after it fell down several floors they are in a strange house where everything is made out of wood. The Doctor investigates the closet and finds out that there are really monsters inside and that George is not a normal boy. George is an alien who came to his parents because they wanted a child so badly and now he locks everything he is afraid of into the doll house in his closet. The Doctor and George's father land there as well and George is the only one who can save everybody.
I really liked the new Doctor Who episode and the dolls were so creepy. Who wants to be turned into a doll because of the fears of a small boy? I didn't expect the little boy to be an alien though. I like the two story lines with Amy and Rory in the doll house and the Doctor helping the little boy but it's most of the time Amy and Rory locked up somewhere and the Doctor has to save them. They could think about a different plot line soon. Anyhow it was a nice in between episode which gave us a pause from the big saving the universe thing the Doctor always does and he was back in his normal jacket. I loved the little boy. He was just brilliant.

Doctor Who: Night Terrors Trailer
And here is the trailer for "Night Terrors", the next Doctor Who episode which airs today.
Torchwood: Miracle Day: The Gathering
After watching the ninth Torchwood episode, the first thing that came to my mind was: "What the hell is this and how long has it been there?" Stop reading now when you haven't seen the episode yet.
Summary:
Two months after Jack was shot Torchwood is split up. Rex works for the CIA again, Gwen is back at home in Wales and Jack and Esther are hiding in Scotland. Gwen tries to hide her father but the authorities search her home. They don't find him but she is also under surveillance from unknown people. Rex knows there is a mole somewhere in the CIA but he doesn't know who he is so all his traces for the families lead to a dead end. Oswald finds Gwen and demands to talk to Jack, so he comes back and Oswald tells him what he knows about the miracle. Gwen's father is taken to the overflow camp and Torchwood splits up to travel to Buenos Aires and Shanghai to find out what the "Blessing" is.
I really like the episode and it had some great character moments. I don't know but I am not able to like Oswald. He is just creepy and I hate his mumbling voice. The same for Gilly. She sometimes gives my the creeps with her so perfect outside but you never know what she is like inside. It was good to see Gwen back with her family but Rhys feels a bit like a place holder at the moment. He is in the episodes but not really in the action and now he has to stay home again. Well, we know now what the blessing looks like but what the hell is it and how long has it been there? It could be something alien and I guess you have to ask yourself if earth is really just a stone in the universe or if it's something living. We will find out in the last Torchwood episode I guess. But the thing with Jack's blood at the end was quite cool. I hope it will be a great finale next week.
