Torchwood - Season 1 Episode 1 (FULL REACTION)

Well the pilot episode of SJA Can be at least watched before season 3 of doctor who - after the runaway bride Christmas episode, as that’s how it was broadcasted Then the rest of season 1 SJA can watched after doctor who season 3 before Torchwood season 2 and DW S4

omg i can't believe your going to react to the Sarah jane adventure , it's such a great show i've seen all the season and episodes of this, your in for a treat 😂

Thank-you for reacting to Torchwood as well! I know the depth of the Whoniverse can be overwhelming. 😂 Gotta be brutally honest, the first four eps of this first series aren't the best, but you're in a for a ripper of a time!

TW series 2 would have to be finished before DW series 4. Finishing TW series 1 before series 3 isn't as important in my opinion.

Marty McLean

I vote for both simultaneously. Like Hemdian said, you could do both and just rush Torchwood a little more than DW. I don't know if there are any spoilers, but I do know you can watch both independently of eachother.

Great reaction (though there was some background noise). The rift that they talked about is the same one from the Dr Who episodes “The Unquiet Dead” and “Boom Town” … so the invisible lift effect was a side effect of the TARDIS landing on that spot before. The actress playing the cop here, also played the maid in “The Unquiet Dead”. Whatever order you decide to watch Torchwood and DW, episode 11 of DW technically occurs right after the Torchwood season finale. So, to watch in the proper order (if that is important to you), you need to have completed Torchwood season 1 *before* the last three episodes of DW season 3.

I would do the shows side by side for the most part. I agree with Stonzy, that sounds like the right balance to begin with from what I can remember. I saw TW much later and I didn't feel that they were all that interlaced. Someone who knows the show better may disagree. Or perhaps get someone to give you a watch order.

It's safe to jump back and forth between Torchwood series 1 and Who series 3,for the most part. I would,however,recommend watching The Runaway Bride next (to givr your subscribers a Who fix!);and then get a bunch of Torchwood stories under your belt before commencing on Who series 3. SJA series 1 can wait until you get to Who series 4. I would recommend giving Classic Who a try before too long. (Maybe between series 3 and 4 of Modern Who) Just one serial will do to begin with,to see how you like it. Most people would strongly recommend the six-part story Genesis of the Daleks - for reasons.

You should also react to the other spin-off of Doctor Who, The Sarah Jane Adventures.

Emil Borg

I think when it comes to how to handle the balancing of Torchwood, to maybe do a few episodes just Torchwood then Torchwood and Series 3 of Doctor Who. That way you’ll reach the end of Series 1 of Torchwood before Series 3 of Doctor who.
