The good word is that James Marsters of Buffy is in the first episode. And he plays his character like GAY SPIKE, and the episdoe apparently opens with him making out with Captain Jack. DICKS A POPPIN. And he has the audacity to do his terrible fake british accent on the BBC.

Nor the Piccolo money.

I watched most of the first episode before getting distracted by Elephant Six videos, but Torchwood in general seems much better than season one. As in it doesn't quite seem like a kiddie show that happens to feature cursing and fucking. It feels a bit more like the material it was originally aiming to rip off.

Have it bootlegged and ready to go this evening, since I'm on the outs with some of my Berea friends I hang out with.

I hate personal conversations and the awkwardness that follows.

You don't know "awkwardness" until you've seen the NEW TORCHWOOD! I think they might be making it terrible on purpose now. James Marsters and Capt Jack communicate with each other almost solely through crude gay innuendo!

My mom loves Torchwood, and now that they've added James Marsters she really loves it, even if it was for only one episode. She was blabbing about it at her birthday dinner last night.

My mom's a 53 year old Spike fangirl.

Did you see the episode? It was REALLY gay, even for Torchwood. And when I say gay, I mean gay, not bad or shitty. It was like watching a terrible fanfic.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #12 on:** January 28, 2008, 05:11:37 PM »

Nope, I don't watch Torchwood.

Dr. Who is fun camp, but Torchwood is just ridiculous.

TVC15 · « **Reply #13 on:** January 28, 2008, 05:15:56 PM »

If you were ever a Buffy fan, you should at least check out the Spike episode. It's the first episode of this season, so there's not a lot of background or anything. He basically plays his character like a gay version of Spike. I think that's really all James Marsters can do. He's also dressed ridiculously. He has like cowboy pants and boots on, the shirt and jacket of a 18th-19th century French soldier, two modern/scifi-y pistols, and a katana.

I'm a big Buffyverse fan, so I'll check it out if I have a chance. I'm sure BBC America will reshow it a million times this week.

I think MAF said it best when he said it sounded like I was describing the dialogue in Uncharted at the beginning with Sully. Like EVERY LINE between captain jack and James Marsters is twisted into crude homosexual innuendo.

Bloodwake · « **Reply #17 on:** January 28, 2008, 05:33:22 PM »

Yeah, the episode was pretty heavy on the homo.

Not a great episode overall, but looks like there's some decent stuff coming up.

Can't wait until someone Stage6's the second episode. The torrent is up but I'm unable to download torrents on campus.

TVC15 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 28, 2008, 05:38:26 PM »

The second episode is better than the first, but I think I might prefer the first because of the sheer ridiculousness of gay Spike making out with Captain Jack.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #19 on:** January 28, 2008, 06:00:06 PM »

It's hilarious that the actor who plays Jack lost the role of Will on Will and Grace because he was "too straight."

tiesto · « **Reply #20 on:** January 28, 2008, 07:53:38 PM »

I remember discovering a blog for one of the writers of this show a while back, I kept reading even though I had no idea exactly what Torchwood was.

Yep, that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

I don't know, even in Doctor Who, he flirts with both sexes equally and he manages to pull it off. John Barrowman is pretty damn good in that aspect.

I just want a Torchwood episode now where Stephen Fry, James Marsters, and Captain Jack all get it on. They are already in fanfic territory so they may as well introduce a Blackadder crossover.

Stephen Fry
