Is it my imagination or does this sound like total crap?

I hadn't even thought of that and then I wondered, but wasn't Torchwood created earlier, turns out, nope. Good lord...I'm with Saxgoddess, are there ANY original ideas in the episodes?
It's a good thing the characters, Myfanwy, the hub and the SUV are so lovel...Oh wait! Those got killed or destroyed. -.-

Especially this:
Feisty Police Woman: "Tell me why you did it!"
Evil killer man: "Because it's fun!"

No wonder RTD advised us to watch Supernatural, he practically copied it...

There are too much factors in that annotation, not at all linked together:
- Gwen and Rhys are on the run – why?
- locals taking an unhealthy interest in their daughter – again, why and is that really Torchwood matter? Are those locals aliens?
- something with echoes of a life they thought they'd left behind – how is that connected with previous statements? What “life left behind” – Torchwood, CoE or something else, how it can be connected?
- they uncover the village's terrible past – again, it can be independent case, like Countrycide. And anyway, how this “terrible past” is Torchwood matter, and what more important – how it may be connected with worldwide immortality (if they say that this is prequel)?
- Gwen discovers that Torchwood will never leave them behind – how does she discover it? Is that because of village’ “terrible past”? But how it concerns Torchwood? Or is it something else? It’s not like someone purposely seeks Gwen to offer her the mystery to solve.
- now she and Rhys stand alone in defence of the Earth – WTF??? Again – is that because of “village’ terrible past”? Or because “they are on the run”? This is the biggest issue of all – how one local mystery makes Gwen “the defender of the human race”?
- the children of Rawbone can only bring her closer to the secret forces that want her out of the way – who wants her out of the way and why? How that’s connected with previous several statements? Are those mysterious forces connected to Torchwood, or to “village’ terrible past”? And how children fit in this chaos?
See – too many factors, the connections between them are vague at best and almost nonexistent.
And the funny thing – now I understand why it’s OK if new audience doesn’t know anything of previous seasons – that’s because 4th season has its own prequels.
