I'm finally catching up in Torchwood and I'm just blown away by Captain Jack. Much moreso than I was by the character in Doctor Who.

'Conversations with Dead People'
Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I don't understand why the fairies trashed Gwen's flat. Not even a little bit. Was there something in the original version that was cut in the BBCA version?
No, apparently the cuts this week were very minor.
This isn't my favorite episode, though I like the creepiness and the fact that they went all the way and let the fairies take the girl.

Also, we went out to dinner last night at Dali, a romantic tapas place in Somerville, and the host sprinkled red rose petals on our table and we were all, ummmmm, ok, we watch too much TV 'cause this is freaky!
I hope that there wasn't a weeping angel in the vicinity.
(SPN watchers: did you guys notice that one o f the clips they used in the Previouslies last week had Sam from Houses of the Holy with a weeping angel in the background - newly extra creepy!)

In our TV world, rose petals are rarely a good thing.

I hope that there wasn't a weeping angel in the vicinity.
Or one saying "Are you my mummy?"

Thrive to spite them
One of the repair guys that we use is British and a Dr Who fan, he said one of his kids can do a spot on imitation of "Are you my mummy?" and will say it just to freak him ( the dad) out.

For an extra special thrill, doesn't it start shaking when he turns his head away?
