Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Yeah, I don't know. Haven't watched the preview yet.

I will admit, losing Ianto after the massacre at the end of the previous season was horrible, especially for such a stupid reason. Definitely taking the Joss/Tim playbook too far. And while nazi demons were almost as stupid a reason to lose Doyle, I don't think there were the meta issues on the Torchwood side. It was just mean.
But, you know, Captain Jack.
Not that I'll be watching (legally) in real time since I don't have Starz.

I'm thinking the UK Being Human is on its best season yet. One more episode to go before it finishes, and I'm eager to see how it all plays out.
What I'm fascinated by is how the Box Tunnel Massacre -- which was played almost as a throwaway incident in the first series -- has come back to haunt Mitchell figuratively and literally and drive so much of the plot this season. That's neat and organic story-telling that is.

Art Crawl!!!
I agree - it's been amazing.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I've been watching the Torchwood reruns, and I just like Ianto so much. It's worse watching it now knowing his inevitable fate, because it's such a dumb, pointless fate.
Except I didn't watch Fragments, because people hopelessly buried under broken piles of concrete was so not what I needed for my entertainment dollar just now.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
The Box Tunnel Massacre was in the 2nd series, wasn't it? Also, just watched the most reason episode and HOLY SHIT.

OMG Fringe is so awesome! I am loving this show so much it worries me that it's going to go off the rails (not in the fun way it already has, but in the Alias/Lost way JJ's show just seem to).
Ahem. I decided to catch up on what's being currently aired while also mainlining the two seasons out on DVD. It's been a bit disconcerting, but I figure I'm achieving a Walter state of mind by doing so.
Tonight I saw (1) the Christopher Lloyd ep, (A) the ep where Realivia went back to work in the Alterverse and (#) the ep about smuggling worm thingies in people. My head has kinda exploded, but in a good way.

The Alt-verse is an interesting place.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
That's some serious Fringe roulette.
Careful Frank. Based on the title of the next new ep, you could really fry some brain cells.
