'Trash'
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
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.
Burn Gorman is absolutely brilliant in his transformation. Truly amazing. I know it's called acting, but he sure knows how to do it.
Indeed. Geeky Owen was hysterical. I actually kinda wish he could have stayed around. I'm also curious if Owen SHOULD wear glasses, but chooses to get along without.
Or wears contacts.

Oh, of course. Duh. I never think of contacts because I can't get around the squick of them for me (eye issues), which is why I've always worn glasses.
I'm very annoyed at BBC-America because their timing cut off the show just as Jack was pouring sand out of the box. Very likely that WAS the last shot, but then we also missed the promos. Feh.
Also, while Torchwood took the 48-hour Amnesia Cure, Rhys sure didn't, and wouldn't he be asking Gwen what happened to that nice Owen chappie who was so helpful? Not to mention still being kind of upset about Gwen forgetting him and so on?
The sand pouring was the last scene. I didn't watch the BBCA version so I don't know what they cut.
Again with the Poor Tosh. I really hope she gets a happy that lasts someday. Likely Rhys is used to odd, and they promised to make her right, so her forgetting she had forgotten him wouldn't be out of line.
eta: my typos get worse every day

That was my assumption too.
Rewatching the last 15 minutes of Meat reminded me that Owen was a big damn hero with the sedation, and unusually human with his reactions. It's almost like they want me to like him before they kill him. Love Rhys and Gwen at the end. World of awwww.
Yeah, but wasn't the whole existence of the alien based on him existing in people's memories, which he would still, if barely, in Rhys'?
Possible I missed some stuff, because I am sick in bed.
Irritated at the poor Tosh stuff. Sleep with someone who's not an alien, Tosh!
Also, freeing Owen of his cynicism makes his vision bad? Personal hot button, but I hate that glasses are the only signifier of weakness.

Heh. I like the theory (too lazy to page back) that Owen always needs glasses, but he's too concerned with his own self-image the rest of the time to wear them.
I've been thinking about the Jack/Gwen thing alot.
I have always thought that she was special to him from the beginning. In the first episode he told her about the not being able to die thing, of course she saw the result, but that was something that he hadn't revealed to the rest of the team. In fact, he has confided in her more than it seems he has in Ianto.
I was sure it was all on him, but Gwen telling him that she loves him has confused me about the whole thing.
