Obvious insight is obvious.

Torchwood was always Jack's story. (And the story of Jack's people.)

Miracle Day isn't. It's just a story that happens to have Jack in it.

(He might be pivotal to events, but so far? It's not his story. Not even close. And hey, that's fair enough, it's Rusty's show, he can do what he wants. Although it does please me how (as always) I can see him as a mirror to Buffy: 'Oh, poor little lost girl boy. She He doesn't fit in anywhere. She's He's got no one to love.')

It's true, so far, and it's making me sad. I have enjoyed Gwen's role in the story, but Jack has had very few character moments focusing on how he's thinking and feeling. (And, as I've repeated ad nauseam, where did his omnisexuality go?)

Me too. :(

Oh god THIS! Stop making him so GAY! He should be flirting with EVERYONE. Grr.

I kept shouting at the TV screen for him to flirt with Esther, Vera, a superintelligent shade of the color blue, anything that isn't a human male!

Yup. There was almost something in that scene in ep6, but it just... disappeared.
