Just finished watching everything Boxed set:

I got the impression that he was bisexual before he met Jack but I can't think of any strong canonical evidence.

When he first met Jack (which was soon after Lisa died, I think) there were definitely vibes, which was kind of unusual for the first time at the rodeo.

So still an impression, but really weak evidence.

yep me too

n edit: oh and I love when sister has just promised to keep his affair quite, and husband comes up and in a big affectionate booming voice says: "so I hear you've been taking it up the ass".

well, in all fairness to the sister, she had heard about it from a neighbor, and was looking for confirmation from Ianto. The husband wasn't that subtle.

Wow. Eureka was really stupid tonight. I guess every show of this sort needs its phantasm episode, and this was a poor example of the genre.

yes, and the new scientist is really fucking annoying.

I have to say, I am just in awe of the job Peter Capaldi (Frobisher) did. What a magnificent piece of acting in all five episodes. Sorry that we really didn't get more of Lois in this one, but I loved Bridget sticking it to the PM.

yes, he was really wonderful. the final scene was really wonderfully done. Especially seeing as how his sacrifice was for naught.

And the guy who played Dekker was icky when he came up with the solution that would kill Stephen. He looked too smug.

he was almost gleeful when he said "oh, that kid'll fry". I confess that i thought that he was an agent of the 456. He was too happy about everything.

I'm less crazy about Lexi's big reveal to Duncan - because just lifting the magic-techno baby-bump hiding shirt without a word of explanation about the material is unreal. Also, at this point, what are the chances that Duncan's two plus two comes up with five?

Well, I hate her character anyway, so I'm okay with it. Although, isn't Eureka supposed to be a secret town? If Lexi didn't tell him where she was, how did he track her down (and get to) a secret town.

I'm just watching Primeval and they're trying to conjure up an air of jeopardy and all I can think is "so, what? You're going to kill Ianto or something?" They so do not possess the plotting chops nor the character investment.

I've given up on it.

Being Human was less funny than I'd hoped it would be, but fascinating all the same.

I think that I subconciously was thinking Red Dwarf.

Am I the only one who found "Being Human" kind of dull and predictable?

predictable, but not dull. Yet. It could get that way if they don't start thinking outside of the box.

Okay, how much do I love that the psychic paper fools machines as well? Or has the doctor gotten an oystercard?

I'm really enjoying Planet of the Dead. Partly I'm just glad to have The Doctor (especially this The Doctor) back on my TV.

That was such a tonic after rewatching the end of Torchwood:COE! If only we could keep him!

I just hate that moment at the end of each episode when someone wants to come with, and the pain comes over his face and he refuses.

And I really liked this "temp" companion. It would be an interesting dynamic to have someone along with mad skills and who he couldn't quite trust.

However, it was nice to see The Doctor get well and truly snogged.

I know we've heard the "your story's almost over" line before, but wasn't the "it's coming, in the darkness" the same thing that Jack got told at one (or multiple) points?

I'm expecting him to say, "There's always something coming, and it's always darkness, and it's always the end..and it never ends. When does it really end? Will I really end? [pause] Sometimes I think 'this is the one, that's it,' but I just keep...going. [looks down] Oh! Pretzels!"

Also it was driving me crazy trying to figure out who played Malcolm, then I slowed down the end credits (thanks BeebA for making them impossible to read while watching live. not.): Lee Evans. I could have smacked my forehead.

I am not liking Carter's new love interest, if that is the reason she's there. Or maybe it was the writing, but she was shrill and overly invested in her proving her smarts. I mean, you're working at Global Dynamics, aren't smarts a given? But on the upside, Carter and Blake are suddenly having way more chemistry now that their whole relationship looks fritzed.

My sister was hoping that Rusty would get pelted with cream pies at Comic Con. Any word on fan reaction in person to Children of Earth?

Oh, and Eureka's been picked up for a season 4, but if memory serves they won't start shooting for forever, so don't hold your breath.
