Though not guffaw-inducing, BAG's tag was Deep Blue Sea-esque.

Shockingly appropriate.

I'll miss that character but I agree that Derek was misused. Such a shame. BAG brought an A-game I didn't know he had.

It's an interesting shake up. All but one of John's supports have become unmoored. Lot's of story potential in that. I hope they get the chance to tell a good one.

Damn. Happened to catch the tail end of the first Torchwood episode on BBCA, and I got a pang about Owen and Yoshiko. Gonna miss them if they don't find a way to make them show up.

But a pang about Owen? Would have thought that UNPOSSIBLE based on that episode. And yet...there it is.

Just saw the most recent SCC and I have to agree, Derek's offing was horribly brutal, but not inappropriate. So much good stuff in this episode. And I also agree that Thomas Dekker, having started off being a bit of a whiny, emo John Conner (which, to be fair, isn't that far off from Edward Furlong's take in T2), now seems ready to take the role of world's savior.

Actually, all the actor's are doing a marvelous job. And who knew Gareth Dilahunt could sing, along with being able to play all manner of monsters. Joss really needs to use him in something.

I'm terrified for Savannah at this point. Most of the episode I thought John Henry had developed true feelings, but now I'm pretty sure that's not the case.

Actually, I'm mostly scared there won't be another season so all this intriguing stuff will just be left dangling in the wind.

I was really tense for Savannah as well. In fact, I was impressed with the tension level of the whole episode. I usually watch while doing other stuff. Not this time.

yep. I stopped watching several eps ago, but would have stopped even earlier if it hadn't been for BAG.

I'm terrified for Savannah at this point. Most of the episode I thought John Henry had developed true feelings, but now I'm pretty sure that's not the case.

Really? I'm pretty certain at this point. I used to be worried for Savannah, but I've come to realize that John Henry is her Uncle Bob. He will never hurt her.

yes, but he isn't fiercely protective either. I think he could do something (or not do something) that might hurt her.

What le nubian said. Especially with "Catherine" saying she's expendable to him, and his new sense of self-preservation.

But a pang about Owen? Would have thought that UNPOSSIBLE based on that episode. And yet...there it is.

I watched that ep again, Frank, and was just hit with what arcs all those characters took. And yes, on the pang about Owen-- god, but he was such a prick back in the early days.
