I’m back to the classic series, frankly. The new stuff just makes my teeth grind.
I can sympathize. But I’ll tune in just to watch the newest companion, who is OMFG Grade AA adorable. Problem is, she keeps dying. Two or three times already, and the new season hasn’t even started yet. How can that be boring? Or bruxating?
I caught the Torchwood series last year on Netflix but the Captain Jack Fag thing was a real dumb thing to add to the show. It did nothing to enhance his character. It ( the show) offered nothing to explain his Poofery either so why? Actually, make that rhetorical, we know Why. Heroic guys like Jack need to be part of the new normal and all us guys have the latent fag gene so its Normal to have them represent all kinds of character models these days.UGH!
In my wait, I have turned to watching the older Who episodes. I am on Doctor 7 now, Sylvester McCoy, having worn out my Tom Baker DVDs (He was ~my~ Doctor).
Torchwood was okay, but in my opinion, has jumped the shark long. If you can find it, Sarah Jane Adventures are a fairly good substitute, too bad there won’t be any new ones.
I do agree with Rich K about the Capt Jack Fag thing. Tossing the Doctor into it was a blazing travesty.
