Miracle Day
One day, nobody dies. All across the world, nobody dies. And then the next day, and the next, and the next, people keep ageing - they get hurt and sick - but they never die. The result: a population boom, overnight. With all the extra people, resources are finite. It’s said that in four month's time, the human race will cease to be viable. But this can’t be a natural event – someone’s got to be behind it. It’s a race against time as CIA agent Rex Matheson investigates a global conspiracy. The answers lie within an old, secret British institute. As Rex keeps asking “What is Torchwood?” he’s drawn into a world of adventure, and a threat to change what it means to be human, forever.

In my opinion, the worst series of Torchwood. The series turned way too American and the fact that the Torchwood team has been reduced to 2 of the original 5 has killed the show.
Definitely much different from the prior seasons, but I don't think it was really any worse than season 1 or 2. I prefer the overarching narrative that spans the entire season, rather than the more episodic approach of the first two seasons; the storytelling is certainly better in both seasons 3 and 4 than it was in seasons 1 and 2 due to this. The biggest issue with this season was that it was definitely over-Americanised. I also felt that it didn't need to be 10 episodes long. By the end, I felt as though it had been going on forever. Could easily have shaved off two episodes worth of content and just had a tight 8.
