chicafrom3Okay, am I the only one with a horrible feeling that the Torchwood writers somehow found out about that vocal part of fandom that was preemptively shipping Martha/Tosh before Martha ever appeared on Torchwood, and decided it would be funny to give Martha scenes with Every Torchwood Character Except Tosh? TOSH WAS THE ONLY ONE NOT AT THE GOODBYE SCENE. That's too much to be just coincidence. Just, somebody tell me I'm wrong, please, because I would really hate to have a reason to hate the TW writers that much.
In other news:
I love framing devices. Have I mentioned that? I do. I love them. Love unreliable narration. Loved Maggie, too, and got v. attached to her, and hope that somehow they bring her back 'round sometime. Hey, she knows way much about Torchwood now, they can't just drop her forever! Er, can they?
Owen continues to be a git and I want to smack him. And they brought up the date-rape drug again. Gahhh. That's why people hate the character. ...to be positive, Burn continues to be completely awesome as an actor, I just really despise his character.
The Owen/Tosh anvils are NOT WELCOME.
However, Martha continually bitching that she doesn't want Owen's job, she likes working for UNIT? AWESOME.
And I'm going to go ahead and admit that I enjoyed the montage of Owen cleaning out his apartment of all the things that he can no longer use now that he's dead.
I liked Parker, too. Was that his name, Parker? Anyway, yes, indeed, Tosh has very nice legs and should show them off more. ♥♥
Although Owen's failure to breathe for him made no freaking sense, since he was gasping and sobbing and using breath to talk and WTF, guys.
MARTHA/JACK KISS. ♥♥♥ ...NO, REALLY. MARTHA/JACK KISS. *loves hard*
I don't remember if there's anything else I meant to be saying here. But I'll miss Martha lots. :( She got way underused and it's not fair and they better bring her back.
Annnd next week we get Jack/Gwen anvils, plus lots of Rhys, hopefully?
In conclusion: why is it impossible for the new Doctor Who universe to have any adult women as main characters without their being in unrequited love with a man?
