The issue with the gay sex isn't that it's gay at all, but the fact that it's so over exaggerated as though to deliberately be in your face. Personally I find watching other people having sex gross. I missed the other sex scene- must have popped out for a sec to make tea or something. Anyway, it's pretty lame that you're trying to villify my statement as though it's covert homophobia or something. As I stated, I just think it's pathetic when TV tries too hard to be different. Overall I have no problem with pan/bi/hetero/homosexual people, why the hell would I? This affects me in no way whatsoever- the scene with Jack though was reminiscent of the sex scene of 'eyes wide shut'- over done

I quite liked the m/m scene... it was passionate and flirty with some tender moments. It makes a great change from the usual hetero shagging. It was hilarious to see my hubby squirm and fidget though... he's such a prudish homophobe at times

I liked it as well. Plus it took part in a great story and I would have loved to have seen more of that lifetime Jack found himself in.

Miracle day is the first torchwood series I've ever seen- I didn't even know there were previous ones, thought it was a whole new series

Anyway, I think the show plot was great. I know that people always get smart and point out inaccuracies etc but I think it was a really good plot! However, the characters were just not likeable. I mean, Gwen? WTF? She's just so annoying- she has absolutely no charisma or likeability at all. I got to like the blonde girl by the end, she was sort of representative of the viewer who got pulled into the drama accidentally. Jack, although hot, I think they overdid the gay thing- I mean, I'm OK with gayness and all, as I am with hetrosexuality, but the show was too desperate to make a point- they didn't just put it in our faces, they literally poked it into our eyes and gouged them out with it- was way too over done.

And that black guy- super annoying. He was just a jerk most of the time and the rest of the time just whined about being in pain.

Overall- great plot, lame characters, little/no character development (is this cos this is just one series among many?)

Could apply to a lot of films too.

Devious, treacherous, murderous, neanderthal, sub-human of the West.
