The Soulless

Story: Torchwoood: Miracle Day - Dead of Night
Written By: Jane Espenson
Length: 60 Minutes
Year: 2011

The third episode is definitely better than the second. It isn't a home run, but this one was definitely more consistent and had far more strong moments than the previous episode. Elements introduced are PhiCorp (a drug company that is well stocked with painkillers, which implicates that they were well aware and prepared for the Miracle long before anyone should have been), the Soulless (a new cult that believes without death their are no souls, and seem to be following the word of Oswald Danes), and adds Danes new status as a leader in the new world with his affiliation with PhiCorp.
I liked the Bill Pullman stuff, every scene he has in this series so far has been captivating and top notch. He is out acting everyone, and it is tremendous. Jack's behavior wasn't totally interesting, but it worked to a point, and the climax of the episode was quite interesting.

Definite improvement over last weeks episode, and hopefully they will keep the show moving and not slow down like "Rendition".

NEXT TIME: Dead is Dead.
