Okay this is just my opinion and I don’t know how many people will read it but who else feels like Russell is getting back at us about our love for Ianto.

Apparently, they're cancelling Torchwood. The BBC is getting rid of a few shows and Torchwood and Doctor Who might be included. Killing off the characters and then the following events seem to put an end to the Torchwood story and maybe that was the reason behind the writers' decisions.

Killing Ianto and having Jack make the awful decision to sacrifice his own grandson gave the writers the excuse they needed to get Jack off the planet and possibly out of the rest of whatever story Torchwood might have left. Maybe the organisastion is rebuilt and maybe Gwen stays on and fights the aliens and whatnot or maybe that's it for Torchwood. Given that most of the original cast is dead or gone, I cannot see how they can really continue, unless they build up a completely new cast. I cannot see Jack returning to Earth any time soon though.

I know. I was confused about that as well. After Torchwood's ending, I can understand if they never made a new series but Doctor Who is one of the biggest shows they have.

Either the BBC bosses have some secret shows they are convinced will be just as popular if not moreso or logic has abandoned them completely.

You'd think so, wouldn't you? But apparently not. We're just supposed to hand over the money and sit back and watch while the writers and everyone else behind the shows do what they want. As the creators, they have the right to be happy with what they create and too Hell with everyone else. Either you like it or you don't but there's no point in trying to please everyone. It just isn't possible.

This is coming from the same man who... dvcorvis July 11 2009, 18:05:20 UTC
gave us 'Bob and Rose' a series where a gay man falls for s straight woman...maybe he is a self loathing gay man...One who some how believes the love of a good woman presumably "Gwen" can redeem a fallen man...Jack every one can admit has fallen through hell in COE...And I fear he did this expressively for Gwen to save him ( ... )
