OMG I need to see the rest of this series NOW PLZ.

But equally, I don't want it to be over.

Y'know, I've heard that this "Torchwood" show is kinda gay. Are we allowed to like gay shows? The concept blows my mind!

I don't think I'll watch it. I'm going to go home tonight & watch Velvet Goldmine or Total Eclipse. You can keep your fruity TV shows, thankyouverymuch.

Gah, too soon dude. :-/ I just watched the next episode after this one, and let's just say that it's not looking like there's going to be much gay left in it anymore. D:

That said, this whole series is actually really effing quality (I know! Quality and Torchwood... which apparently does not compute for most people), and I actually do think you'd like it (even if you don't like the other ones). It's like a proper show now.

Well, except for the DOOM. OMFG I'm so traumatised. Shut up. Stop laughing at me. :P

:((((((

Torrent plz!!1

When you have it all, pass it over, I'm more likely to watch it if I have the whole lot....I think you gave me series 2 at some stage, which is a random place to start :P

Heh, no, actually it's probably a better place to start than S1, because there are some atrocious episodes in S1 that a lot of people find it difficult to see past, even when there are some later ones.

S2 was something of a reboot, though, and was a bit more consistent (if a bit less edgy).

But yeah, I'll give you the lot if you want. Or S3 is probably an okay place to start, too, because it's a reboot for a mainstream audience, and was deliberately designed so that you don't have to have seen the earlier episodes...

But I totally get that you're a completist and all that, so you'll probably prefer to watch the earlier ones. Just don't judge me, okay?! And, maybe give it a bit of a chance, like, say, up to episode 10, before deciding it's crap? :)

Hey, I stuck through Dollhouse, didn't I? And that was on a week by week basis, without being able to just skip through! :P

Also, d/l Big Bang Theory the other day. Nerd jokes & props from Thinkgeek.com. Awesome.

Heheh, but Dollhouse was Joss! Of course you're going to stick with Joss! :P

And I've heard about Big Bang Theory... might be interested in 'procuring' that one. When's Manda back? We totally need to have piracy. I've been downloading things, as well... and you, sir, have to watch Life On Mars. I demand it! :)

But yes. Given the developments in this morning's episode of Torchwood, I might be a whole lot less enthusiastic about it all after tomorrow. *is totally not almost-crying at work* :P

Bah. Stupid fandom.

Let me guess..........Captain Jack started trolling for hookers in totally a T-Rex way? Calling out "Awesome!" and being all hetrosexual with Dromiceiomimus? I've lost track of my original point. I sally onward nonetheless.

Yes! Sailing teh seas of piracy sounds a plan, and now I'm backing up all TV shows etc as video files as well as .vob files it should be quicker & easier....

Heh, I wish! Nah, they totally just killed off my favourite character (who also happened to be the dude Captain Jack was shagging), and I just happened to watch it on the iPlayer before I headed off to work this morning.

And the worst part is that it was an absolutely brilliant scene and a brilliant episode and so I really can't be angry, because it was so well done! Argh ( ... )

Plus, most of the characters can be fitted to people I know...most of whom were in EAS :)

Heh. I always thought that about the geeks in Season 6 of Buffy. (and, well, Roy in the IT crowd bears a certain resemblance to some people we know...) :P

Oh, believe me....when you see this show, you will know what I mean.....and that Buffy & IT Crowd nerds do not compare. It is scary :P

oh_contraire July 10 2009, 04:16:18 UTC
Heh. I'm not entirely sure I want to watch it, in that case...

I mean, there's art imitating life, and there's, well... scary. Heh.
