Torchwood- Hmm, is it me, or was the sex scene with Jack and the random bartender surprisingly graphic? I mean, I'm surprised TPTB weren't all "OMG, gay sex!" in general and cut it. I mean, I guess the British version of the episode does cut it. Which I find a little surprising that the Brits would do that when the Americans didn't. I mean, we're fine with wonton violence but I always thought America was a little more prudish than other countries when it came to sex on TV. Still, I'm kinda curious if they interspersed scenes of Mekhi Phifer screwing Hispanic doctor lady at the same time because they couldn't just show gay sex, they had to throw straightness in there so things wouldn't be too gay for the audience.
True Blood- How old is Sookie supposed to be?! It kinda weirds me out that she was all, "Oh, when I was a kid and was sick, I'd stay home and watch episodes of Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Charmed!" Man, does that make me feel old then.
Also hilarious? Portia's attempts to get back with Bill giving like loads of evidence why them getting together is fine and incest isn't so bad and all that jazz. But Bill glamered her to stay away, so I guess we're done with her? But we weren't done with spy chick Bill had in the Wiccan circle? Alex Breckenridge was kinda hot when she was trying to be all glasses girl, but she also looks pretty cute in the security staff cap.
Other things. ( spoiler cut )
