mrv3000 | Torchwood: The Bobby Flay Chronicles

Let's try this again. I've had sleep and am drinking coffee.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Okayokayokay.

They turned Owen into a zombie. MWAH. Apparently one undead man on the team wasn't enough - now they've got two. Except Owen's actually very fragile now. Jack was right - if he gets hurt, he's gonna be in trouble since bones won't mend. I guess whatever that residual glove thing was is keeping him from completely decomposing.

Now that they've done this, I have to wonder WHY they've done it with this character. I guess like the title from last week, they've reset his character. Heh. Talk about retooling. But since sex is now out, we no longer have to be subjected to his ass! WOO! \o/ Um...can we turn Rhys into a zombie too?
I was a bit disappointed with Martha this week - not that she did anything bad. But after seeing her last week with the whole fast-forward awesome doctor thing (which realistically should have taken a few years from LotTL, but was compressed to one...even though I have no idea how it's even one year since LotTL), I was convinced that she'd have a pivotal role while Owen was out of commission - something that required those awesome doctor skills. But that didn't materialize. Actually, other than starting an autopsy at the beginning, there was really no time where she had to be in this episode. If you're going to go the the trouble of having a very special guest character, don't waste her! HMPH.
Did anyone understand what happened when Jack blacked out and woke up in the Torchmobile at the hospital?

Director: [reads script] WHAT? Pink bunnies burst out of Jack's chest who beat off Death, and then they rush Martha to the hospital??

Writer: Great, isn't it?

Director: ... FADE TO BLACK! And...Jack will wake up at the hospital and have no idea how he got there!

Writer: WHAT? YOU CAN'T CUT THAT! THE BUNNIES ARE SYMBOLIC!!

Director: Why did I give up doing Jane Austin adaptations again?
Boy Death moves slowly, doesn't it? I'm thinking it could have killed dozens easily by the time they evacuated the hospital. It's not like it had to be stealthy for any reason. And why didn't it just kill everyone at Torchwood first??

Okay, it's Torchwood. Ignore the plot holes and look at the pretty.

...

Right. These people aren't pretty enough to distract from the plot holes. Jack can only go so far. Damn, they really needed a basket of kittens.
To sum up: WHAT?

One thing I will say - how did Tosh not slap the living daylights out of Owen at the end after kissing her just to steal her thingy?

Yeah, no kidding. Even in death he's a jerk. :D Tosh deserves better.

TW is crack and I wouldn't expect anything less! OH and the HOCKEY STICK!

I totally cracked up at the hockey stick! :D But at least Ianto went to get *something* to battle the claw instead of standing around staring at it! :D

And then the whole farting incident in the cell, bloody hilarious (though disgusting).

The best was Jack's reaction to that.
