Torchwood

Dear Torchwood,

Congratulations are in order. You have achieved the impossible. You made me cry over Owen Harper. Mostly it was for Tosh, but there were some tears in there for Owen as well. I do have issues with the fact that you killed off Tosh, but since you never really seemed to know what to do with her character I guess I'll forgive you. Thank you for giving me a Gwen I mostly liked this season. Especially in the finale. She was awesome and kickass and leadery. Thank you for that final shot of Jack, Ianto, and Gwen clinging to each other, grieving but knowing they have to continue. It was lovely.

I do have a question though. Is Jack going to suffer from the fact that HE WAS BURIED IN THE GROUND DYING OVER AND OVER AGAIN FOR 2000 YEARS? I think a thing like that would give a guy some issues. Just a couple. Maybe. Also, can we have more Rhys and PC Andy next season? They are very awesome.

Love,
bubbles83

PS: I really did love that Space Pig line.

*sings* BSG IN AN HOUR! BSG IN AN HOUR!

I wonder if Torchwood will hire PC Andy!

I was very, very sad. I cried. I don't know how they managed to make me feel attached to Owen of all people.

I'm very bitter about Tosh and Owen. Owen I was always blah on, but I love Tosh almost as much as you do. So killing her off with the moral being, "awesome girls never get a break in life," upsets me.

But PC Andy made me happy. The more he's on, the more I smile. So, please be bringing him back BBC?

And yeah? Stacking more angst issues on Jack's shoulder? Let's see....1)Brother turns out to be not only a very bad actor, but filled with hate, 2)Has two of his best friends die, 3)Kind of kills said brother/freezes him, and 4)Is buried alive. WTF?!? At this point, he has way more issues than the Doctor. UGH.

Yay BSG! I'm really tempted to watch it, but as I haven't finished watching S1 I would be very confused, and I think I'd ruin everything. Sometime this summer though...

Part of me really wants them to hire PC Andy. The other part worries that they'll do something to screw him up and make him not as awesome anymore.

I know what you mean about Owen. God, if this had been last season I probably would have cheered.

All of last season I was begging for them to kill Owen.

Then they did. Then they brought him back and made me like him only to kill him off again?

BOOOOOOO.

I'm so sad about Tosh. I loved her SO SO MUCH. Damn DW/TW and their skeevy woman issues.

Dude, who was that actor? He was SO BAD. He might be the worst actor on TW ever.

I'm way excited about BSG. I'm tempted to tell you to watch it, but I think it would probably be best if you waited. You'd be WAY confused.

Torchwood/Dr. WHo officially both get the seal of the only shows where I am afraid of shipping people. If I ship them, something horrible happens. Its bizarre.

Beyond that I am still kind of absorbing this episode.

I am kind of hoping John Hart comes back to get explored a bit. (Guest only, probably would grate on nerves after a while.)

space pig lines were the best lines on torchwood. ever.

i don't know where they got the actor to play Gray, but boy, did he need some work.

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know if it's so much a 'if you ship them something horrible happens' as it's a 'Nothing good ever happens to any ships in DW/TW'

I'd love for John to show up again, but I agree that he probably would start to grate. Or they'd do something to completely change his character.

The space pic made me smile so hard. Oh, Tosh and Owen.

No joke. You know you are in need of some acting lessons when John Barrowman can act circles around you.

I cried. Still a bit sniffly. Tosh was the best one. It was a great episode, though. More PC Andy/Rhys plz!

Oh, and I absolutely just now got the Space Pig reference. That was a fantastic way to tie that together!
