But you LOVE Turchwad!

I will downloads it for you! You loves that wacky show.

I'm finding it very hard to explain, both on this here internets and at home, all the reasons why I'm not interested in Torchwood: Miracle Day. And I don't like pissing in people's chips, either, so I'm not going to rant and rave about how much I don't care about watching it, the truth is I don't really care enough either way to even be vehement about it, and if it gets downloaded for me (lol, seriously, I still don't know how that torrent shizzle works, I am ignorant in these matters and just write things on post its and stick them to his screen), I'll probably give it a go. My main problem at the moment is that all the things that people are now, having seen screeners and such, so very excited about, sound awful to me. Seriously, the more I hear about it, the worse it sounds. But that's just me and YMMV and such.

But, I am the Torchwood prophet, of course, so here's your 100% God's honest TRUTH, it's not even a hunch or prediction, this one, but I guess you could call it spoilers, what with it being an ACTUAL THING THAT WILL HAPPEN, and it's this:

Jack is so dead. Are people actually debating this? Are there actual people out there who think Jack will survive this series? I don't like Jack enough to care, but I am finding it all terribly amusing and I am, of course, looking forward to how the Glee crowd will explain this one away, having said after CoE that Torchwood was about Jack and all the other characters don't matter and of course they're going to die. I shall enjoy reading all that shit.

Also, I am becoming increasingly worried that the whole Amy/Rory/Melody storyline in Who will be handwaved away entirely, and was, in fact, resolved when River said that stuff about the Doctor finding her and taking care of her and not to worry about it. Am I alone in this?

Hmm...I don't know. It seems they've really equated Jack with Torchwood, so I can't see them getting rid of Jack for real any time soon. He may stay mortal or seem to be dead (like in End of Days, but maybe for even longer!), but really, truly, permanently dead??? It sounds like RTD has big plans for Jack and Gwen next season. He said he has a whole story centered around Gwen envisioned and as for Jack...uh, some female attention (since this story supposedly dictated male love interests only this time). So, that sounds about right--Gwen gets the story and Jack gets the comic relief/sexyfuntimes!

But RTD is leaving TW after Miracle Day, unless he lied again.

Well, I'm sure he can pass off his great Gwen idea to whomever is running the show next season (Jane Espenson?) or maybe he'll go after the drama he really wants to produce and just juggle two shows again (because that worked so well before!). Or, yeah, he lied. I don't trust anything he (or JB) says these days...but then Gwen with a baby in one hand and a gun in another came true!

All I know is what I see in the media and Jack=Torchwood. We'll see.

I don't see him dying, but I am frequently wrong so that probably doesn't mean much, but I can totally see them talking about how 'Jack is Torchwood' this season and then next season going on about how Torchwood has always been about more than one person or a couple of people if they did kill him off even though that's the complete opposite of what they're sayimg now.
