I was a bit disappointed with Torchwood this week. I can only hope there's an arc reason for killing Owen, then more or less bringing him back to life. At the very least, a repercussion from Toshiko's "I love you."
You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

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.

So far the only compelling reason for killing Owen seems to be to make him more likable.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
They killed Owen?! HA! (I have only watched 2 1/2 eps of TW so far, but I have a few friends who might be dancing a jig about that.) I imagine this is temporary state of affair, however.
Toshiko's "I love you."
Urgh. Really? I like Tosh (probably best among the crew) and I was hoping she'd over this ill-advised crush by now.

Welll, yes and no. He's still dead, but he's doing pretty well considering that condition. Although he did come back wrong.

Heeee! Only in this thread, man. Maybe he'll get a personality transplant. I did hear Owen was fairly tolerable in S2. This actually makes me want to catch up.

All things considered he may have come back right.

Heh, I was going to say he came back only about as wrong as Buffy did (although for a significantly less lame reason than "genetic sunburn" or whatever the flobotunum was that Willow used to explain her condition).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Can someone Nilly me the link to that blog that did the detailed analysis of the BSG "Last Supper" image?

I'm all done with season one of Torchwood and I've ahemmed the first five episodes of season two. But I refuse to watch until I see the last three episodes of DW season three. I'm such a completist. I should have the last disc of DW in the mail, today, though. Yay!
