Torchwood: Miracle Day Episode 9 ‘The Gathering’ Review

September 5, 2011

Torchwood: Miracle Day has been a roller coaster ride, to say the least. The ups have been AMAZING while the downs have been so abysmal (mostly episode 6) that if I had not committed to writing reviews for this series, I would have abandoned it… Read More
