Sheesh, tell us what you really think. I'm not sure how you justify that statement in any case, since they are often written by the same people (and certainly produced by them)!
I've heard the same thing. I watched the first disc and while it was OK, I wasn't impressed enough to want to immediately jump back in. I've been told that the second season is a great, great improvement so maybe just start there?
Just to be fair, my wife is a HUGE Torchwood fan. She absolutely loved season one, but she really hated season two. She is unlikely to come back when season three starts --- yes, season two was really that bad.
Which is a bit sad, because I loved those two (though there wasn't much more you could do withSeason 3 will be utterly different again; it's moving to BBC1, for a start; so it will be more family friendly. And half the cast is dead now. I imagine Season 3 will be akin to a reboot.
