Yeah, I know all about Cybermen. It was just weird to watch because she was a woman.
A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was just weird to watch because she was a woman.
Less dangerous than the male of the species?
I can see it being weird because more of her human shows, but that's the seduction and the danger--Ianto fell for it too.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Huh. I hadn't thought about that. I was about ready to hit someone after the scientist started groping her.

PC obviously wasn't programmed by Fritz Lang's Metropolis. I think "Evil female robot [link] Kill, kill!"

Ha. It would have been different if she were completely metal. Like ita said, there was too much human showing.

You haven't seen what she looked like when she started acting evil.

Man, where the hell is Vonnie when I need her? She totally had the same reaction I did.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
But, they're experience was that Cybermen were pretty darn near invincible - would you really second guess that?
You shoot cybermen a lot. It's the only way to be sure.
My chatty!co-worker's band is called The Cybermen, so these comments threw me for just a moment.

Does anyone else start figuring out how to make a Dalek everytime one is on screen? Or is it just me? I'm thinking of a Dalek lawn ornament with lights and a chip that says "Exterminate."

I understand what you're saying. There's definitely an element of the show that revels in "We're so cool, we're so edgy, we're practically American sci-fi."
Something I love about this episode -- Ianto is *so* upset. Sobbing, cursing, completely off-his-rocker upset. That's not a place most American shows go.
