Bit of a downer, eh? Granted he saved the world. But a couple of times I got bored and switched away to The Two Towers, despite having the latter on DVD. I didn’t like the ‘undetectable’ faeries being detected quite so easily. Quite a lot of character added to Captain Jack, though. ---

Finally caught up to ep. 5. I guess the shortness of this thread says something about what everything thinks of the show. Can’t say that I blame you for clicking away. Most of the show is okay, but frankly I’m finding the writing to be more than a bit crap. I doubt I would even watch the show anymore if I didn’t want to see more of how it ties in with Doctor Who and that’s not going to last much longer. They really need to pull something out of their ass if there’s going to be a second season.
