May Captain Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) live long and prosper! Years one and two were the best, Year three ventured out on strange limbs and also killed off Ianto Jones (Gareth David Lloyd ) which was a big mistake. Season four was influenced too much by Starz, who had their hand in the production. Since season four was filmed in the USA it was terrible and lacked the writing excellence and location excellence of the three previous seasons. The producers need to do a Dr. Who inspired “time warp” and bring back both Captain Jack (John Barrowman) and Ianto ( Gareth David-loyd) to run a simpler Torchwood project in Wales, nice individual semi-connected installments, much like the original Avengers with John Steed (Patrick Macnee) and Emma Peel (Diana Rigg).

I love the fact that so many straight men in Britain are uncomfortable with seeing gay men portrayed on tv. You know what? I”m uncomfortable seeing YOU portrayed on tv, so it’s about time you figure out what it’s like for us.
But don’t worry, dearie, you’ll get used to it. Especially after your cousin comes out and you’ll have to live the life you see on tv.

I don’t see what the big fuss is about..
Let them be on air as much as any straight person.
If people are so uncomfortable with it they can turn off the tv or change channel problem solved.
My best friends are gay, my cousin is gay.
And to be honest Jack Harkness/Ianto Jones from torchwood was AWESOME!
The bottom line is that “I” don’t get bothered if the presenter is gay or not.

The Doctor Who Christmas special this year, features an intergalactic interspecies lesbian couple living in Victorian England, I doubt that would totally fly in a family show in the USA without freaking out at least three different organizations for family values.
