Torchwood
I'd planned to caught up on Torchwood this weekend but was putting it off out of depression. I realized I was only watching for the yaoi componet and that the rest of the story is FAR from dazzling me (never really forgave them for the canibal and combat episodes, not to mention the near destruction of my fav character Ianto in cyberwoman >.<) But after they had Jack retouch with the Doctor in the lost years I was willing to give them a shot in season 2.. only to be depressed, as mentioned before. I'm only in it for the yaoi.
After watching eps 4-6 though I'm feeling MUCH better!
Nice to see Ryhs as an actual interesting guy that Gwen might still love instead of a middle aged bear-swilling sitcom dad type who Gwen was growing out of but refused to let go of. (I'm not a big Gwen fan here either- they were playing her as the female equivalant of him and then not only does she cheat on him, but when she confesses she then wipes his memory instead of dealing with his anger and their relationship- she really died in my eyes at that point.)
They even had the actor tone up and slim down for this big episode.
"Adam" was just fanastic- all for Ianto of coarse! Love my Ianto! I just WISH Jack did too.
I was mad at Henry in Tanya Huff's Blood series (the books) for loving Tony only as a subsitute for the woman he couldn't have, and here it Jack doing the same thing to Ianto, and I'm not sure Ianto realizes he is doing this. I think Ianto loves Jack more then either of them will admit and when the writers go the hetero way and put man and woman together they are going to CRUSH Ianto in the middle- along with all of us fangirls!! :(
