I'm afraid no money in the world could make me watch any show completely centered around Gwennie-Sue. Having her taking screen time away from much more interesting characters in TW the Original was bad enough.
But again, it's a matter of taste, I guess. After all, I can't stand Sharon Gless, either.
I've learned to intensely dislike Sharon Gless while watching "Cagney and Lacey", back in the Stone Age. I loved that show and every single character it - except hers. But it took me unti Queer As Folk US to really, really hate her. Assuming we're talking about the same actress - I tend to mix up the names sometimes.
I started off liking Gwen in the Torchwood pilot, actually. But it didn't last. I just can't stand Mary Sues.
I didn't like her all that much in Cagney and Lacey either, but she's marvellous in Burn Notice (she plays the lead character's evil genius mother). I didn't see QaF US. She's the one in Cagney and Lacey with blonde hair and the awkward relationship with her father. Tyne Daly is the one with dark hair that's married. (Tyne Daly appeared in a recent episode of Burn Notice, which was fun.)

It has suddenly occurred to me that I do have an icon more topical than Owen.

Is the woman in the icon the PR character?
