Well, well! I may need to watch Torchwood now! Color me intrigued!

Very interesting idea to cross these two universes. I'll be interested to see where this goes!

Well, well! I may need to watch Torchwood now!

If you like the looks of Jack/Ianto you might not want to watch Torchwood: Children of Earth or Torchwood: Miracle Day. I love the original un-subtitled show, but I'd say once they started messing with the format and title the storytelling really went to hell.

You did a great job :)

Thanks! :D

This is great! l'm really intrigued by Torchwood and Jack/Ianto after reading your fic and fleta's fic and I think I'll have to check it out (at least the pre-TW:CoE series). I think Bailey and John would fit in with these two rather nicely!

This is great!

So it was totally worth "hijacking" my post? *Bats eyelashes.*

I'm really intrigued by Torchwood and Jack/Ianto...

Part of me is thrilled to hear that because I really love Classic/Original/Un-subtitled Torchwood, and Jack/Ianto. Part of me feels like I owe you an apology. I still feel really badly burnt by how the show collapsed. x_x

...I think I'll have to check it out (at least the pre-TW:CoE series).

I heartily endorse pre-TW:CoE. If I haven't said, and-or made clear with my icons, Jack/Ianto do become canon on the show. One of reasons I like to forget, for the most part, that TE:CoE and everything after it exists is how one of the many things that got ruined in TW:CoE is the boys' relationship.

I think Bailey and John would fit in with these two rather nicely!

Me too! :D

Haha, totally worth the hijacking! *G*

So the good seasons of TW are season 1 and 2, right? A few people on my flist watch the show so I've been kind of following vicariously, and their opinions on what happened in TW:CoE was very similar to yours - I won't go into details here in case anyone who's following this is spoiler-free, but it sounds like what was done to the characters and the relationships was pretty horrible.

Good. I'm glad.

So the good seasons of TW are season 1 and 2, right?

*Nods.* Right. The only episode of Torchwood to ever get a Hugo nomination was the first season episode titled "Captain Jack Harkness." It also happens to be one of my favorites.

...their opinions on what happened in TW:CoE was very similar to yours...

Heh. I've heard someone else talking about TW:CoE say, "Torchwood didn't just jump the shark with CoE, it machine gunned a whole school of them." I know I'm not alone. :D
