Rewatching the first episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day and I forgot to mention Ethan Rayne the first time!
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Who was Ethan on TW?

Who was Ethan on TW?
He was one of the newscasters. He was only on the screen for a few seconds.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
TB: In the first ten minutes we get drunk Eric (hilarious), Jason having a rather moving epiphany, and "Remeber Salem...it was just a bunch of Puritanettes who needed a good lay."
Even if the rest of the episode sucks, I'm happy.

Also, despite my unhappiness with their storyline so far this year, I loved watching Hoyt and Jessica save Jason, and Jessica not even giving a second thought as to how she was going to save him.
Really bad stuff for Pam though. She's not going to deal with that well.

Art Crawl!!!
No, she is not. Drunken Eric was excellent. Eric in the swimming hole: excellent. Eric sad that he can't be in the sun again: excellent. I think I'm watching for Eric.
Jason's story was good this week. I was so glad that it was Hoyt and Jessica who happened upon Jason.
I'm guessing that the reason they've messed with the Bill storyline is because in the books - Bill isn't there at this time. (I think this is when he's in South America. )

Ann, that's a ferret.
TW: Better. Closer to the Torchwood spirit.
I'm 1/8 Welsh. So there are no prizes for guessing my favorite moment of the ep. Even if my ancestors were from Anglesey and nowhere near Cardiff.
I want Rhys to return, but I fear he won't. Torchwood without Rhys is like Buffy without Xander -- missing a tether to the ordinary world.

And now: the the GoT theme on acoustic guitar.

So lovely, sumi. Thank you for linking.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I thought Gwen was the tether to the ordinary world.
