Memorial Day Skiffy: Torchwood
Wow. Awesome
Just watched the episodes I hadn't seen (marathonned, really), and, dude. Awesome, awesome show. I'm loving this deeply. In numbers, because I'm not sure how coherent this will be....
1. Fandom has been telling me, since the beginning, that I will hate Gwen. Having now seen every episode of the season, I do not hate Gwen. Not only that, I'm not really sure what the fuck is wrong with fandom. I adore Gwen, I think she's made some damned stupid mistakes, but she's also learned from them, and she's human. Plus, her freaking over Rhys's death was heart-breaking (especially as I think she realized it was her fault).
2. Owen is still trying desperately to be Tony from NCIS, but he's got a crass sort of charm. I can see why Gwen figured him for the kind of fuck that would relieve her angst.
3. Suzy (ie? whatever.). Everyone is dead keen on her, and I'm not sure why. She's fucking annoying. Not quite as annoying as Ari from NCIS, but close enough I was wishing Ziva would show up to put me out of my misery.
4. I went into the show with very low expectations, since fandom keeps telling me it is bad. I'm going to stop listening to you fuckers.
5. Jack? When your team doesn't know there's a demon under the rift, you might want to tell them so they don't open the rift. Dumbass.
6. Ianto shot Owen.
7. Owen shot Jack.
8. Jack kissed Jack. Mwahahahahahah.
9. Countrycide. Shit, that was a fucked up episode. *shudders*
10. Which brings me to what my roommate said after we'd got done. I don't think there's a single episode they could've skipped. They were all, if not essential to the whole, at least damned entertaining.
11. Torchwood, series two: The Search For Jack's Mojo...
12. The music in TW is really spectacularly awesome as well.
13. Lots of people kissing. I like people kissing and porning on my tv. And it was all preeetty...
14. My roommate is pondering a TW/Authority crossover. People need to go convince her that would be a fabulous idea.
