Spoilers for Torchwood's Children of Earth
Yes, Mr. Davies and Mr. Whedon are both evil.
After making their audience investing so much in the characters they just kill them.
I still can't believe that Ianto is gone, and even if I want him resurrected I doubt Mr. Davies will do it (and trust me, I hope I'm very wrong). This reminds me of Joss killing Tara in BTVS' S6, it was crude and harsh.
Jack's reaction to Ianto's agony reminded me another Whedon moment "No you don't, but thanks for saying it".
I think the reason why everyone had a huge reaction to Day 4 is because Russel is like Josh, a mastermind who plays the audience's feelings like a violin. I don't know what will happen in Day 5 and I don't know if it will be as intense as yesterday but I'm sure he was delighted to have caused such commotion.
Anyway, I never thought I was going to feel such strong feelings towards Ianto and the Ianto/Jack ship and I feel let down because the emotional investment from my part was huge and I really didn't notice how much until yesterday. I have to congratulate Russell for that but I have to let him know that I hated Joss for a while so he can expect my dislike for a little bit even if he justifies this death or resurrects Ianto. My heart was broken yesterday and I'm a woman so I have to dislike the man who broke it.
