TV GUIDE: Matt's Guide to Weekend TV: Torchwood and HBO Finales, Plus 9/11 Programming

... FRIDAY
I'd like to report that the finale of Starz' Torchwood: Miracle Day (10/9c) redeems the uneven season, but despite a number of explosive occurrences on opposite sides of the globe, it's something less than a (to coin a phrase) "blessing." One of the climactic twists — actually, more than one — had me howling: not in grief or shock, but in befuddled frustration that an admired franchise had gone so far off the rails. Still love Captain Jack and Gwen and would follow them almost anywhere, but unless they put the remnants of this chapter of their mythology behind them and forget America ever happened, they may have to go it alone for a while.
