Most of the things that get talked about in the blog are 'down time' things. I don't really see how it's all that inconsistent when most of what we see on the show itself is not down time. Gwen wouldn't know how to rein in an emotion if her life depended on it. Ianto is a master at it, and rarely "lets his hair down." Their respective dynamic with Jack reflects that, and it's something you see in Something Borrowed when he hastily pretends to be talking about something else when Owen comes in. And most of the Jack/Ianto scenes we have take place in quiet moments, or when they think they won't be disturbed. You're not going to see a ton of those in the show itself.
I generally see the blog as filling in downtime blank spots. And, since Gwen IS with someone else, and Jack IS in some kind of relationship with Ianto (and so presumably spends a considerable amount of that downtime with him), it stands to reason that the blog will reflect the Ianto/Jack thing more than the show.
I guess I just don't see how having one character with real connections to more than one other character is inconsistent. In fact, in my experience, it's kind of true to life.
