I really have nothing to say right now about the latest episode, I'm saving most of it for when I write something else. Some long meta thing. This week hopefully.

OKAY, I lied. This turned out longer than I thought.

All I have to say is that I STILL DON'T FUCKING GET IANTO/JACK. I thought Owen and Jack(God help me) had more chemistry in their one measly scene, than Ianto and Jack did, and Ianto was propositioning him!

I'm sorry. I seem to have a problem recently getting into fandom's biggest ship. It has nothing to do with the hype though, I just don't see it! I mean, I get what was happening in the end there, although the stop watch squicked me for some reason, but I don't see it for real.

Also? The idea of Jack and Ianto just seems wrong to me. Whatever Megan.

STOP WITH THE FUCKING DADDY ISSUES! I thought, yay, for once we're going to have a nice Dad/Daughter thing, and what do we get? "OH I FINALLY GET TO KILL THE BASTARD, LET HIM DIE."

FUCK YOU WHOEVER CAME UP WITH THIS, the writer. This is twice in one series, and it's not the first time it's happened on a show that RTD's involved it, in fact it pissed me off in Doctor Who S2. Not everyone want's to hear what a fucking bastard someone's father is, I fucking adore my own, so stop it.

Anyway...was I the only who kinda liked Suzie? She was interesting, if she wasn't EVIL. Which, I thought this show would show us the gray. Well, I've been mostly blinded by the black and white and I'm sick of it. Why couldn't Suzie not have known about what was happening to Gwen, why did she have to stage all this? It would have been awesome if she hadn't have known and yet continued, because she just didn't want to be dead and maybe even begged for her life at the end or something.

I don't know why I expect the best out of this show, as I've said, it's made by the same people who do Doctor Who, WHAT THE FUCK WAS I EXPECTING?

The sad thing, this is one of my favorite episodes now.

Also? HAHA, Owen slept with Suzie.

Yeah, Suzie /was/ cool, the whole dad thing just left me like, wtf? And I don't really get the whole she-planned-it thing, 'cos how would she know death would be horrible before she died? It could've been nicer, and then she'd've come back & not wanted to be alive again.

Ianto/Jack = fandom biggest ship? Didn't know that, but then again I haven't been around Torchwood fandom except for my flist's posts about it. That bit made me all IANTO FTW bvecause he wasn't being all emo for a change, but than I thought about it really, What The Hell? Makes no sense - what about cyberwoman? Ianto's still my fav character, and I really liked the bits with him naming the alien tech, but eh.

I thought it was the best ep. so far.


Ohoh, I know what i meant to tell you - your Brigadier wtf? icon, I think, I think it could possibly be from the Three Doctors. It watched that the other day and there was a bit in it with him opening a door on sky and turning round and wtf?-ing. I will go and have a look at the icon and see. I'm probably totally wrong, but that bit reminded me of it *shrug*

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

Yep, pretty much what you said.

OH, thanks for the info on that icon, I didn't have a clue where it could be from!

[bluekiwibubble.livejournal.com]

*sits and watches icon for a bit*
It is! I'm almost sure it's from The Three Doctors =)
Part of UNIT HQ has been transports through a blackhole onto this place that only exists because big-powerful-trapped-time-lord-dude-Omega wants it to be there, and the brig, benton & the dr were in the Tardis, brig goes out, opens UNIT door and wtf? =D

Sounds delightfully cool!

I don't see it either. If you take all the current eps into account it's - to my mind - wrong verging on abuse, and if this episode xists in some AU that takes place after Day One at the latest, then it's just a proposition and an office quickie and I still don't buy it. It's stated that the work force are buried in the walls. So... how can Jack cop-off with them and what's wrong with pulling a guy in a bar anyway?

I mean how large is Cardiff's population anyway?

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

Taking into account what was happening before "Cyberwoman" and the aftermath, the "fluffyness" of that last scene has no value and what happened in "They Keep Killing Suzie" gives it no heart. I just can't see how good and squee-worthy it is!

I really doubt Cardiff's population is that small.

*weeps* So much WORD. I thought I was the only one who didn't see it/didn't like it/didn't get it! (Well, to be honest, I *loathe* the ship intensely.) But yay! I'm not the only one!

I think there may be a few, we should start a support group. :)

I would totally be in for that!
