Sci-fi should be fun, not serious drama

I like my shows to be smart quirky funny, exciting that's exactly Supernatural, Entourage, Trueblood, Warehouse 13 are..also its very important to have smart actors & good stories , Torchwood used to be like that.. now look at it.. what rubbish it has become .. first episode i saw of the ner series i knew it its going to be awful & i want to say something about actors of the show.. John Barrowman he was never a good actor but he was a entertainer he needed somebody who is good on acting to tone him down Gareth , Burn, Naoko always did that, about Eve Myles she is not a good actrees she is loud & brash actress who only can show one emotion that would angry shouting she lacks subtlety there was other two actors good at Naoko Mori & Gareth David Lloyd Burn Gorman always kind of physical actor.. & about the new cast members i never saw a show where each & every actor is just plain awfully bad actors Mekhi Phifer even 2nd rated Bollywood actors are better then him he got only one expression on his face like he ate something very bitter & can't let go that taste from his mouth, as for those women actresses they gave wooden a new meaning & Bill Pullman was he the same actor who was in Casper or Independence day.. yeah he is well he was never a good actor but it seems with Torchwood he hit a new low.. as for the writers of the show you people need to take a break from this stressing job of writing Torchwood please have holiday & then watch what rubbish you have written this is not even the shadow of old torchwood its kind of spoof show of 24 meets x-files with a big BOOM , Russel T.Davies his ego ruined this smart quirky edgey British show its now nor American cause it doesn't have that strict professional attitude nor British quirkyness it is lost in between i fail to understand how it went so bad well it happens when you let go of your roots kill away your good actors & characters Torchwood was a British Show out & out.. three actors Naoko , Burn , Gareth ,lead their part with ace.. but now its just lame, boring i hope its die peacefully this time if it comes back again it should come back to its root that would be in BBC & feature Wales , its not political drama it was a sci-fi should have kept it that way Davies is not that good who can pull of smart well paced political thriller he should have stick with British slight camp sci-fi Torchwood, in Torchwood series 1 & 2 there were adult language & sex not explicit but it was there it never needed full on sex because we as fans were happy with what we had, in series 4 the way RTD & John Barrowman promoted sex scenes like that's only left to watch & oh yes cause as they don't have good story totell skilled actors to show their work there so yes all they left is nudity & sex to get audience & how pathetic is that for a show to do that.. I watch Trueblood regularly Torchwood's sex is just lame infront of it.. & the boundaries they are pushing regarding sex hell even incest frankly it did make me bit uncomfortable  but at they end it was clrified what is right & wrong to do as human beings & also they never tried to sell their sex scenes its part of story its there , sci-fi should have all about fun excitement weird things , gadgets  with a human touch to it not serious drama of killing your grandson or a pedophile if RTd wanted that he should have started from season one in that direction not change course suddenly from season 3 & leave his audience who sat infront of their TV to watch sci-fi gets a political drama.. i feel he cheated the audience big time if ratings to go by he is getting return with bonus..
