Will Torchwood be to Doctor Who what Angel was to Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

shit, yes.
Russell T Davis is a talentless buffoon, his success at the BBC seems to be a case of the Emperor's New Scripts. 'Doctor Who' worked because it always worked, it worked in spite of his terrible ideas and clunky dialogue, not because of it. |

Well, after the third season, RTD is supposed to be leaving the writing side of Who, so we'll see what happens there.

That's quite good news since he has done wonders in getting the show going again but he has consistently provided weak episodes. If he just sticks to the running of the show and lets the rest of them get on with it I'm sure we'll see far more balanced series.

Short review of first episode
Not much detail but they liked it. I think. And what could the revelation about Jack be I wonder? |

I'm guessing either something to do with the 2 years that the Time Agency wiped from his memory or something to do with him getting back to present-day Cardiff from whatever-the-hell year it was space station place.
