Late!

Happy Belated Birthday to constance_b! Hope you had a fabulous day! :)


And then today xkcd outdid itself. I think this might be the funniest and most scarily correct thing I've ever seen!

(Might be back later with Torchwood meta - damn but that show makes me think. But we'll see. RL is eating me...)

Torchwood meta: Jack/Ianto + thoughts on 'Adam'.

First of all a disclaimer of sorts. Because Torchwood is Torchwood. This is the show that made mpreg canon within the first 5 minutes of the pilot and featured alien sex pollen in ep. 2 (OK, so they never called it that, but...). It is stupid to try to measure it up against other shows (*cough*Buffy*cough*), because that will inevitably lead to heartbreak every time. Torchwood is over the top, too angsty by half, every character is bi- or omnisexual, and the whole thing is so crack-tastic the screen might melt. So that is where I'm coming from now - I try to judge the show on its own terms, because I think it's worth my while to watch it. The writers might not be able to do subtle, but they *do* know what they're doing and where they're going. (I even want to re-watch S1. Seriously.)

And now onto the canon slash... with some thoughts on 'Adam' tacked on at the end. Because this show makes me *think*, and that is what I love.

( On with the show. Long, I'm afraid. But then you know me and what I'm like... )

Oh - and do NOT spoil me for 'Reset' 'Dead Man Walking', OK? Won't see it until Sunday...
