It's a race against time as CIA agent Rex Matheson investigates a secret British institution named Torchwood that seems to hold the answers.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Miracle Day. submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on July 27, 2013, 11:59am Fans consider "Miracle Day" the fourth season of "Torchwood," although the show has not had a regular season since season two.
In the first of five episodes, "Miracle Day" begins when no one on Earth--anywhere at all-dies one day. Torchwood cannot investigate as it no longer really exists. Three of the characters from the original show are dead. Gwen, her husband and their baby live in a remote town in Wales while constantly on guard against attack. No one knows where Jack is as he left Earth at the end of "Children of Earth."
"Miracle Day" is a very disturbing series that includes a lot of violence. No one under 18 should watch it. Later episodes also have some romantic scenes.

Season 4 submitted by B_Mo on August 22, 2015, 12:49pm Season 4 of Torchwood is not as good as the previous three. Maybe the camp doesn't translate well to an American setting with American actors? I'm not sure but something was off.
