RTD had once said he wanted to make a Jossverse like show, so when I see stuff like that I just want to shout and throw things.
Yeah! I mean, it's one thing to want to pay homage to a show you loved (and I'm suddenly getting flashbacks to Tissa's SPN/XF rant from a week or two ago), but it's entirely another to rip it off completely. I don't mind a little Jossian language or humor here and there, but trying to rip off the the style of a show is not cool.
Torchwood makes me so sad...I think I might even stop watching. WOE.
I KNOW! I was so looking forward to this show. Captain Jack was one of my favorite things ever about DW, and I didn't really think it would be possible to go wrong with a spinoff focusing on him, but, well. I think I'm gonna stick it out until at least the halfway point, and then we'll see. Maybe I'll just wait and marathon the whole thing at once after it's ended. I always like things better when I marathon them.
Gwen kissing every guy and girl on the show makes me dislike her a lot.
Gwen is so weirdly written. One scene I'll really like her, and then the next I'll be rolling my eyes at everything that comes out of her mouth. I wish they'd just pick something and stick with it, you know? :p
You're raving about Dexter makes me really want to watch it.
You should watch it! I mean, I know it's tough to swallow in parts, but I swear it's worth it! And everyone is very pretty. ;)
