Hello there! I love the fact that you knew exactly what show i was referring to without me making any mentions of it in my entry. :o)
But yes...divorcing the show is what i think i will be doing once this season is over. In fact i'm of two minds whether to watch the finale tonight. On the one hand the death scene was so final, but on the other hand i'm thinking 'where's the scene with Ianto and the big gun from all the promo pictures?' So i don't know what to do! As they say: 'i want to believe'. But. *sighs*
My mum said i looked so lost this morning...and i still feel it. I'm definitely wallowing today.
I admit i do wonder about RTD - what happened in his life to give him such a pessimistic view on life where he feels no-one can have a happy ending?
I cried over Donna - she was by far my favourite companion, but with Ianto i feel sheer devastation. I think even if Tosh and Owen hadn't died last season i still would be this upset. I couldn't bring myself to watch Day 5, just watched everyones reactions over at torch_wood. Don't think i will ever be able to watch it.
Yesterday they lost the Jack/Ianto fans, and judging by the initial response over on the Torchwood communities at the moment about tonights episode, it sounds like they've lost 80% of their livejournal audience. You can see for yourself [page 13 of the comments and upwards.]
When i say it was bad, i don't mean it was bad writing or acting. But the whole thing was devastating. I've spent the whole day trying not to cry, which sounds totally pathetic, but is very true, so much so that i couldn't bring myself to watch the finale....and judging by the response of the fandom, not sure i ever will.
Seriously, when we meet up? Don't even bring up the show. I feel like a family member died. And i feel ridiculous for feeling like this, but my escape from reality has just gone up in smoke.
*HUGS* I do understand and fully sympathise Rae. Remember when my favourite Star Wars character died? Jacen Solo a.k.a the best Jedi and then the best Sith {DARTH CAEDUS} ever? I was devastated.
It has taken me close to a year to be able to re-read some of the early books in the series in which they cruelly killed him. And I still won't read the last two books past a skim of a page or two...
So yeah, I feel very sorry for you dear. Escapes from reality are important. And no, I'll definitely won't bring this up when we meet. (I will have a peek at the comments.)
