Torwchood 2x02 - Sleeper:

Er... why exactly are they investigating a murder case? Do they investigate every freaky case just in case it miiiiiight be alien related, or what?

And oh my God now they KIDNAP people? And make them wear black masks over their head as if they were headed to the execution? WHATEVER THE FUCK. Murderess or no murderess that shit's wrong, yo. I mean, it was self-defese, for fuck's sake.

"There's no such thing as aliens" I've heard that phrase before, I know I have, but I don't remember if it was in le Crotchwoot or in Who. Mmm...

EXPLODING HEADS, LOL. ALSO. OKAY, IANTO JUST GOT OFFICIALLY AWESOME. HAHAHA.

Oh, silly, naive Gwen. Haven't you learned enough to not promise the alien of the week that they're NOT going to get killed? Tsk, tsk.

I have to admit, that montage of the aliens activating/killing people/Beth at the hospital saying goodbye/killing her boyfriend was actually rather good. Huh. The score helped loads, though.

"He IS dashing, I'll have to give him that" IANTO WHENEVER DID YOU SUDDENLY GET AWESOME? WHEEEEEEN? "And I thought the end of the world couldn't get any worse," OMG GUYS SO AWESOME. DO HAVE ORGIES, LOVELY TORCHWOOD PEOPLE. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.

aw, poor Beth. She was nice. ;____; (although that was a dumb idea. srsly.)

I have to admit, while I've always found him cute, Ianto sort of bored me last season, and I never got the fuzz about him (OR Jack/Ianto, to be honest) but so far this season? He's getting all the awesome lines, lol.

AND IN THE NEXT EPISODE: TOSH GETS A BOYFRIEND, YAYZ. Good. Because she's the best of them all, TRU FACT.

SO. Not as good as last week (because that one was lolarious, yo), but it was still surprisingly decent for Torcwhood standards. Huh.

Ianto! I think it's hysterical how he's suddenly become the snarky eye candy. Moar of the same, please!

And mmhmmm Tosh. Is it Wednesday yet? :D

Exactly! He was the teaboy with angsty manpain, and all of the sudden he's bitching about Jack's manners in bed? In front of everyone else? LOLLOLLOL.

IKR. I very much approve of orgies. They're good for the soul.

yay Ianto!

yeah, that montage was really scary. Actually, the whole concept was scary, if a common trope.

Torchwood the team kind of scared me a bit, especially grr-y Capt Jack. :(

But overall, it felt like one of those classic sci-fi TV show plots well done, Torchwood style. Except for some odd camerawork.

Jack's approach to questioning suspects freaked me out. Badly. I can't tell if we are meant to infer this is how Torchwood normally behaves or if it was just bad writing for him and Gwen to do the Good Cop, Bad Cop routine. Meh.

The rest I did enjoy. A lot. And I suspect deep down Tosh wouldn't have objected to Owen's end of the world office orgy. XD Oh Ianto, such a spoil sport...

It just bugged the hell out of me. Especially because, it was all 'OMG MURDEEEEERSSS' when even if it'd been completely human related, it would've been a girl defending her home and her husband. Sure, she overdid it, but there is such a thing as self-defense, torchwood crew. *eyeroll* And Jack was so ~intense~ about it, too. BOO. My money is on bad writing, though, because it's ALWAYS bad writing with this show, lol.

I am sort of convinced that orgy did happen. Offscreen, but happened. BECAUSE IT IS HOT AND I LIKE IT TO BE SO.
 
I don't mind Jack being a lousy boss and a morally grey hero, but I want the show to acknowledge it, you know? Otherwise they are just giving out mixed messages. That is, I have a problem with the way they sometimes handle cases, Gwen has a problem with the way they sometimes handle cases - but does the show, really?

Screw Jack/Gwen and Jack/Ianto: Tosh/Owen/Ianto is the way to go. Let the geek girl have some fun, I say!

Igual que tu, no tan bueno como el de la semana pasada pero muy decente para Torchwood.

Obviamente lo mejor de lo mejor fue Ianto,
made of awesome
la neta.

¿Para cuándo las orgías, gente? ;)
