Getting On With It

[jacey]

Another good day today, work-wise (both writing and music-agency). I've given myself permission to take the evening off to watch Torchwood. Note to maeve_the_red, Doctor Frog Boy has seen the error of his ways this season, apparently. He's almost human and appears to have stopped jumping on anything female with a pulse.

I was enjoying the way Dr. Frog Boy (excellent name for him) seemed to be self-destructing, in the same way watching Lando in B5 was interesting. I did like his (semi-)nude scenes (Frog Boy, not Lando), though.

The self-destruct bit was getting predictable though. Suddenly making him relatively sympathetic is a twist I didn't expect. He's done four episodes without nearly causing the end of the world. (About time they showed him being competent.)

I'd like to bet they got no end of adverse audience reaction to things like the date-rape thing early in the first season.(Owen using alien device instead of drugs to make girls mad for him.)

I'm glad they're making him more sympathetic. I'm appalled at how all of them use alien devices for their own ends (Gwen and the amnesia drugs, Owen like you said, Tosh and the mind reading thing, etc.). These people are supposed to save us?

Well... flawed heroes and all that...
