I was surprised to find myself a bit upset at Owen's death and I'm also chalking it up to how adorable he was in 2x05.
I thought Martha worked pretty well on the show, it will be interesting to see what happens with her there. I'm glad she's got that hot doctor as her man (I'm assuming the doc is who she meant).
I don't get Jack and Gwen at all. Her lustage only makes me feel bad for her fiance and if I were Jack and had the lovely Ianto on the side I wouldn't even notice that gap toothed hussy. I wasn't wowed by Gwen last year, but this year I pretty much try to ignore her when she's onscreen. The only good thing about her for me is her hair. I'm thisclose to copying her bangs.

It makes me feel a bit shallow, actually. Give me adorable and suddenly I'm totally there. :D

I really love Gwen, and the Jack/Gwen dynamic, so I guess we'll just have to diverge there.
I actually want to like Gwen and I want to like Gwen/Jack as I feel that shapes so much of the show. I just wish I knew what they were going for with them. I don't see why we have to invest so much time in Gwen/Rhys if that isn't ever going to really go anywhere. If I believed that she would be devastated by losing the memory of him, the ep would have been more hard hitting for me. They show us all these lovely and touching scenes between her and Rhys and it's all tainted for me because I'm not sure about what is going on underneath. I can't figure out what her deal really is. Also I kind of lurve Ianto and don't want him to get hurt and I feel like the writers are jerking the character around for what will end up being nothing.
My complaint is more with the writer's and less with the character I suppose. But that would be my complaint for all of Torchwood, really.
I really love Gwen... Man, I feel like I've insulted your sister or something. I shouldn't have called her a gap toothed hussy on your lj. It was meant to be funny

Puppy!Owen with glasses? He was frakkin adorable. I wanted to jump his bones. Stupid alien messing up Tosh's memories. I can't decide if I ship Tosh/Owen, but I REALLY want her to be happy. And if the real Tosh had seen that, omg. We would have gotten actual porn.
I'm rolling my eyes at her awesome being shoved down our throats, but it was nice to see Jack light up in her presence. I needed to see Happy!Jack for a little bit. Awwwwww, he's so cute when he's happy. I'm still a major fan of the angst, but he's like the Doctor. Gotta have the mix!
"We both traveled under the same Doctor." UM. TORCHWOOD. WE GOTTA TALK. How have you NOT figured out which Doctor this is?!?! You were CREATED to protect the Earth from the Doctor, and listen. Martha and Jack are, like, the two least subtle persons ALIVE. Put TWO and TWO together!
Jack and Gwen! I think I ship it? But in that Torchwood-y way. Ditto. I have issues with this show because I pretty much like every pairing. Which just makes it so messed up because I don't want Rhys and Ianto

He was adorable! It was oddly endearing. :D
Hee. Porn on Torchwood. That'd be a novelty.

It is so dumb! And I don't understand why Jack has to be all secret and mysterious about it. I'm not sure "traveling with the Doctor" is really on the same level of pain as "I got my younger brother killed." SHEESH.
One of my favorite things from the episode was how Gwen and Martha bonded. I really don't get the Gwen hate--I think she's adorable. And I loved how she had to "test" Martha before deciding to like her. Of course, then it was instant love and bonding. Gahhhhh

Just like you, I loved Owen in Adam, and finally understood what people meant when they said that Burn Gorman was a really good actor. So of course he gets shot in Reset. [nods]
The awesomeness of Martha did get shoved down our throats a bit, but at least she fit in better with the whole ensemble for the most part, and she made Jack light up. It nets out to zero for me. :-)
I wish someone would tell John Barrowman to start acting for the camera, but at the same time it provides such magnificent lolz.
I am also full of love for Jack/Gwen, because it is 1) tasty, and 2) kind of frought with things that make me happy, as I'm so ridiculously giddy about Gwen and Rhys (with the Converse, in Paris, omgcute) but at the same time I love Gwen making sexy eyes at Jack. Because I can! Which is the Torchwood way, I think.
Aw. But the awesome wasn't really shoved down our throats. It just was there. Being awesome. :) ;) And, nothing was ruined! *does a happy, skippy dance of hopefulness for other soon-to-be returning characters*
Owen has really grown on me this season, I loved him. Geeky Owen was adorable. I'm still in mourning. ;_;
Jack's memories were heartbreaking.
Yes, Adam = crack so much it's not even funny. "Guys, what did we do in the last 48 hours?" "No idea." "WAIT, WHO CLEANED MY SEEKRIT CRACK STASH OUT?" "... Oh. That explains it."
-I liked Martha, I think! I'm rolling my eyes at her awesome being shoved down our throats
Couldn't have put it any better, I think they overdid it a little. :D
but it was nice to see Jack light up in her presence. WOOOO! DW!Jack. And Martha's happiness does serve as a nice counterweight to Sarah Jane, who spent years pining for the Doctor, and Rose, who didn't get any choice in the matter.
Yep, I respect her pining-less attitude and it was nice seeing her and Jack reunite again.
Aww I've always loved Jack/Gwen. :P They are outing it more this season, yay.

Is it time for Doctor Who yet?
