The guests wouldn't have seen the monsters in the first place had anyone involved shown half a brain
To be fair, 2/3 of the Torchwood plots would never happen if anyone involved had half a brain. "Let's try to shoot the shit out of the glass panel between us and a poisonous atmosphere! What could possibly go wrong?" "Let's keep a dinosaur in the basement; no one could possibly notice!"
It's problematic and creepy when the showrunner doesn't see those actions and motivations as morally ambiguous.
I could rant for hours about RTD and *that* subject; see the thread with violetisblue. I don't WANT to live in a world run the way he sees it; he thinks he's putting the elite on the lines for the masses, but he's mostly stripping autonomy away from those who need it to make extremly important informed decisions.
I haven't read Season Zero or tw_itallchanges, which looks to have been brilliantly done. Maybe I'll take a Torchwood by the fans for the fans day when the pantry is defeated - do you have a direct link to Season Zero?
