Torchwood Outbreak – Stage Two Prodromal: Love

Hey Guys,

welcome back to the second and amazing adventure of Torchwood Outbreak. The second episode is amazing and i love it. I am already listing to it the second time in a row. It is fun and dramatic. It just have everything i love about Torchwood and everything i learnt to love about Torchwood when Big Finish started.

Pretty Boy against Pretty Boy

The second part of the story of Outbreak is mostly about Ianto and Jack. Jack is infected with the virus and looked himself in but something got wrong and Ianto is no trapped inside with Jack. Jack has a few flashbacks and we learn that he knew Norton Folgate and seems to be responsible for the ‘virus’ the first time.
Ianto our pretty boy get the what-ever-protector to actually talk to the other pretty boy Norton Folgate.
Norton Folgate is an amazing character and is always fun. Norton is involved in the whole ‘Good-Thinking’-Projekt. The funny thing about all this is you never know if Norton is lying or telling the truth. We never know on which side he is on and that makes him so a great thing. You just don’t know what he will do next.

Others

Gwen doesn’t have a real role in this episode. I am sure that this will change in the third and last adventure. Like i said the most part is about Ianto/Jack and Norton. But we also got a little of Rhys and also Andi who gets himself in really bad situation. Of course Rhys tries to do something stupid.

Listing or not

Oh my god go and listen to this episode. Norton is a good reason to listen to it. He makes the story so much more fun. There is nothing i love more than Nortons unhelpfull coments.
Also it is a really amazing Ianto and Jack story. I got so many feelings about them. Sometimes the way the two love each other is killing me. Right now i have so many feelings about this pairing. Also my ship is sailing: Norton is asking for Andi.

‘You never will just be a blip in time, Ianto Jones. Not for me.’

Torchwood: Outbreak – Stage One Incubation: Know

Hey Guys,

welcome to the Torchwood Adventure ‘Outbreak – Stage One Incubation: Know’. I am so happy that i actually found the time to start listing to it. As many of you already know i am totally in love with Torchwood and even more with the Big Finish stuff. Outbreak is a adventure with three parts and also a full-cast radio play. It plays after the second season and before ‘Children of Earth’. So we have an adventure with Jack, Ianto, Gwen, Rhys and Andi.

Story

Like the name suggest it is about something that spreads like an epidime. We know not much about it. Just that one infected person got arrested by Andi and wants to talk to Torchwood. We all know that Torchwood is in Cardiff an open secret. This infected person seems to have killed someone because he is full of blood and he always asked for his wife – so i think he actually killled the wife about that is just what i think. Also the skin is twitching… and it spreads fast.

It doesn’t happen much in this episode. It is more of prologue were you got the feeling for the story and the whole action will be – hopefully – in the other two episodes. The episode is not boring far form it. Because we love all the characters.

Everyone gets their time

Gwen and Ianto are going to handle a few curios reports that escaleted pretty fast. We got alot of – i have problem finding the right word – snipping at each other like their were together.
Jack is going to the station and talk to the infected person. Jack gets to interact with almost everyone like always.
The amazing thing is that we got so little scenes not just about the story but about the characters. We got Rhys and we got Andi deal with everything. Everyone has their scenes.

Listing or not

It is hard to say more about the episode without telling to much. It is just Torchwood we love and the characters we love. So yes go and listen to it. The first part sets an interessting setting and i am really excited to see were they are going with that story.

Stargate Atlantis: Season 1

Hey Guys,

welcome to my opinion about Stargate Atlantis Season 1. I don’t know how often i already rewatched this serie but here we go another round. I watched an old McShep vid (here) which brought all the feelings about the serie back. I always was a big fan of the original Stargate serie and the original movie. But i never wanted to watch Stargate Atlantis. I already stopped watching Stargate at this point. In the first run i stopped when Daniel died or ascended. So i never get to the point were Atlantis came into play. But than Stargate Atlantis get aired after some serie i watched and i just let it play without really looking. That changed when i saw a episode that had the focus on the relationship between Rodney and John. These two made me addicted to the serie. So i didn’t started with the first season. But after i got addicted i started from the beginning and so let’s start with my thoughts on season one.

My all time favorite: Rodney McKay

Rodney McKay is my favorite Character on Stargate Atlantis. But i really love almost everyone on that damm show – later more. Back to the smartest person in two galaxies. This is of course what he thinks of himself and sadly it is totally true. What ever problem there is on Atlantis Rodney is the one repairing it. He is the head of the scienice department and also a part of Mayor Sheppards Off-World-Team. He is smart, annoying and totally freaking out about almost everything. But that is actually the best part about McKay. He is a scientist. He can’t fight and is not the most athletic person on Atlantis. He is afraid of almost everything. But everytime his team goes through the Stargate he goes with them. Everytime something bad happend he is trying to prevent it. Yes he is afraid but he always tries to defeat his fear to protect his team and Atlantis. Which makes him for me one of the strongest person in two galaxys. Somehwo with is not so charming personality he became friends with a lot of people. Other people may not like him but almost everyone is respecting him and know that he is actually the smartest guy in two galaxys. Nobody would ever tell him that of course.

The Team

The reason i fall in love with the serie was the friendship that developes slowly and become the greatest love story without ever getting acknowledged for that. These two (Rodney McKay and Mayor John Sheppard) fall into place right from the start. Rodney is mostly one step behind Sheppard. Sheppard needs a way to fight. Rodney is the one that gives him that. They just seem from the start to always be around each other. Everytime we see Rodney in the medic bay John is beside him. His eyes almost everytime fall to McKay.
But McKay has also an easy ‘friendship’ with Ford. Ford touches McKay alot or is in his personal space. They talk easy and snappy with each other.
The only one Rodney don’t fall easy into place is Teyla. I really need along time to get warm with her and that time she needs to get warm with Rodney. I think that in the first season she doesn’t have a high opinion about him and he has to earn her respect with hard work.
Ford likes Sheppard from the first moment. Just the whole team dynamic is briliant. I love every bit about it.

Colonel Sumner and Weir

When i watched Stargate Atlantis for the first time i really disliked Sumner and loved Weir. After watching the full serie and than rewatching it. Everything changed about these two facts. I really started loving Sumner. He would be a great head of military and would be excatly the one they needed in a situation with the Wraith. He had a good overside, a natural distrust against everyone and he liked Sheppard. There are this small smiles when he looks at Sheppard interacts with Teyla. He let all that stuff to him and remaind in the state ‘i look at it with distrust even when i like them’. He would be amazing in his job and i wished we had seen some of it.
Weir on the other hand i started to dislike. She is really bad at doing her job. I never saw it like that before i saw Carter in command. When you rewatch it she makes so many mistakes and it is okay. But i can’t respect her anymore like this with knowing everything.
It is okay that she brought Sheppard on the expedition without talking to Sumner – it is not the right decission but it is okay. But she should have made something really clear from the start and that is that Sheppard has to do what Sumner says. Yes she is the head of the whole expedition but Sheppard is military and so under Sumner. She always undermines his authority. Sumner should choose a team for a Off-world-Mission and he does. But without talking to him. She send Sheppard with him against his decission. She is doing that always. She accused the Athosians to be traitor because nobody of her team could be one. Sorry. That is not true and even it were. You could stop being so obvision about it. But when Bates is talking against Teyla for actually good reason in the last episodes everyone shoots him down. Bates is an asshole but not wrong.

Aiden Ford – spoilers

When i watched the first season for the first time don’t really get warm with Ford because in my head i know that i shouldn’t get attached to him because Ronon will be coming and i love Ronon. But that was wrong. Ford is so amazing and totally deserve to acknoweldged and loved and totally missed when he leaves Atlantis. He is amazing he is a good soldier. He knows what an order is and acts on them. But he always have his own opinion. He thinks for himself. He is good at what he does. He can stand is ground alone even when he is really young. But also he is one of the kindest people. He cares so much about other people about everyone on that mission. He is always for the fun and makes people feel better. This alone makes him for me a hero. But he is also always ready to sacrifice everything to protect everyone and Atlantis. He always jumps into the danger when it is nessassary but doesn’t do it so suicidal like Sheppard. No Ford will always decide to live when there is a way. This whole character was a freaking gift.
What got me must about his fate is that he really believes that drug makes him stronger. I know that is what drugs make you think… but i really believe he never saw how good he was. That he was so strong without the drug. That he doesn’t need that drug even a little bit. He didn’t survive this long off-world because of the drug – it may be helped him – but he survived because he was always good at it. Because he knows how to use his brain and how to fight. And even when i am really happy that we got Ronon, i miss him deeply.

So this are just a few thoughts about the first season. Now i start looking the second season.

TW: Season 6.1

Hey Guys,

you all know that i am kinda crazy into Teen Wolf and that i can write novels about it. Now i watched like everytime the newest season of Teen Wolf – every week one episode. You of course noticed that i didn’t write an article about any of these episodes. Why is that? Because i don’t know what to say about it. This season is a really big let down. I always thought that Teen Wolf get better and better. I loved everything about it. I had so much hope for this last season and lot of trust in Jeff to make it work so that i will be totally in love with this season. But this is not what happend. What happend is that don’t want to pay for the DVD’s and that at least season 6.1 will not find his way into my cupboard. One big thing that makes the season not really good is of course the lack of Stiles. That is something that sadly couldn’t be changed. I really love that they made the storyline so that Stiles can still be in it even when Dylan O’Brien couldn’t be there to film the season. So i don’t hold that against the season.
But sadly other things are even worse than the absends of Stiles. There are two mayor points i dislike in this season Marrish and Lydia (not just as part of Stydia).

But lets start at the beginning. The plot…

At the beginning were the memory loss

The Story is that their is the wild hunt and they earse people completely. Nobody remembers them and the things they own vanish or more true would be couldn’t be seen anymore by others. This wild hunt earse Stiles from this world. So nobody is remembering him anymore. But everything is still the same. Means Scott is still a werwolf, Malia is still human and not a coyele and without Stiles nothing of that would have happend. Which means when you think about it a few memories just doesn’t make sense.
The only thing that really is different is Stiles Mother. She is still alive and isn’t ill anymore. She overcome her illness – what is like i understand utterly impossible – but she is alive.
The second storyline is about the NaziWerwolf. A really bad storyline. You know from the start who the teacher is and Liam and his friends deal with all of that shit alone because the other are trying to get Stiles back.
Which means Chris and Melissa are dealing mostly with the wild hunt. What actually amazing because of reason i will get later into.

Lydia and her break downs – countains maybe a little spoilers

I really like Lydia. I love her character growing and this stuff. She was a really mean and manipulating person in the first season. The way she treated Jackson was really bad. I am still angry that everyone seems to forget how she treated him like shit when they were together. In the second season i started to feel with her because nobody was there for her and i mean nobody – nor Allison or Stiles. She was alone and thought that Peter was still out there. I really hate what they did to her with keeping her in the dark and than she have to see her big love die infornt of her eyes. In the end we see her and Jackson declarying their love and Stiles sees it too. He sees that he will never have a chance. Than Aiden came and Lydia grow alot in this relationship because Aiden made clear to her what person she doesn’t want to be. It is amazing to see her actually having a friendship with Allison and see her becoming independant and part of the pack. What i love the most about it is that it is not about Jackson, Stiles or Aiden. It is about Scott. She starts embrassing her abillities because of Scott. Because Scott told her that he had her back. She tells him who dies and he goes and save them. That is the reason she start to really do this. Scott is the reason she is in the pack and why she stayed fighting. Really i love the scene where Derek is explaining that to Aiden. That is Lydia. She isn’t in love with Scott but she respects him and she trusts him so much.
We see her out grow Jackson, Aiden and Stiles. Than she met Parrish and Parrish treated her like she deserved it. They were so amazing for each other. The chemestry between them was so good. Lydia became such a strong person who actually looked for a guy she deserved.

Than season 6 started and from all of a sudden Parrish and Lydia have not one scene together anymore. Parrish exist as Parrish just because Lydia holds him in this world. Now this whole storyline seems to vanish into thin air. The only thing that counts for Lydia is Stiles. I hate it so much. The last season the wish to protect her friend Malia brought her back. Now she let all of her friends fight the bad teacher and the wild hunt alone because she has to save Stiles. For me it is so out of charactere. This is Lydia she would never let anything like Allisons death happen again but this is what she is doing. She is doing nothing. She just breaks down and cries and talks about Stiles. I want her to fight to remember him but not like that not over the cost of everyone else.

I hate how she is talking to the Sheriff and i get that most of the fandom hates Claudia (Stiles Mom) but she is the wife the Sheriff is loving. He loves her with everything he had and her death broke him. The only reason he is still alive and healt is because he had Stiles. How could she be like that. I get that she wants him back and wants the Sheriff to remember him but – not like that… my heart broke for him when he actually understood the truth behind everything…

Hales and their anchor …stydia and other things

I love Malia and my heart breaks for her. She built her life around Stiles. Stiles is that one person for her. Stiles is the one that holds her human. Stiles is her anchor. I love that fact and i wish we would see more of her struggle with that and her feelings of helplessness. But it made me also miss Derek even more. Because Stiles became also his anchor. Which is so amazing. It made me wish that Derek would be there and we would see a relationship that developed slowly and naturally into something more not like the forced Stydia. I am tried to accept Stydia and understand it. But i can’t understand it. I had a lovely person (heygarretshutup) that tried really hard to explain it too me. Sadly for me i have a complete different point of view on the characters and their character. That is why for me these two still don’t make sense. But even when i couldn’t understand it i wanted to accept it because when it will be conan i have to live with it and i love Teen Wolf and i don’t want to stop loving it because a ship became reality i don’t like. My hope that there will be a turning point is still there. But that hope dies slowly. The way Stydia is made in this season feels so forced on my. Truth be told i would be angry if they would make Sterek real in that way. Because it feels forced and cheated and wrong… and i really want Sterek to be canon but in an natural and amazing way.
So i can’t understand or accept Stydia. I just can’t. I totally started hating it and everything to do with it. I hate to admit it but it seems like i am totally that person that stop loving a serie because of the ship they seem to make canon.
If they bring Jackson back just to show him that he lost Lydia to Stiles … i will … oh god i will be so angry at that. Don’t bring Jackson back just to hurt him. Don’t hurt him anymore.

The grown ups

From the first two season on i had a wish how the season would end and i don’t mean any ship with it. This is not about Sterek or Stydia or anyother ship. The first thing i wanted came already true. I always thought that Peter Hale had to be in the last season. A last season without Peter just wouldn’t sit right with me and here we have him. Like he always was amazing, idiot and cares mostly about himself but a little bit for Stiles and even a little more for his daugther – i still want to know why Talia took that memory from him and why she send Malia to live with a normal family instead of a pack that can protect and teach her.
The second thing is and i am sure that this will not happen… but it would be the best thing ever. So i wanted Deaton to be the big bad in the last season. Because really he is so creepy. The way he act like he knows nothing in the first two seasons. The way he reacted to Derek and the way he dealt with Derek don’t sit right with me. Why don’t tell him that he was the emissary of the Hale pack? Why don’t tell him the truth and the way he ‘protects’ Derek is a joke. Also he always just tells them as little as possible about everything. He has to hide something else and i really wish that it would be that way.

But what really gives me life this season is the Coach! He is back – sadly he still is not often on screen – and Melissa and Chris. I ship these two so much. Really the scenes they have together are amazing and my love for that pair grows every episode. Also so the Sheriff is free for the Coach.

Watching or not – spoilers

If you can do it than don’t watch it. Of course i will watch 6.2 and hope that everything will be better in the second part of the season if not i will watch with my best friend only season 5.2 and let it end there. She dislike Stydia as much as i and she is not a big fan of her anyway. Soo this is even worse for her. It is not that the whole season is bad. Actually the last episode was really good apart form the parts with Lydia and Stiles… Every scene with them were so unnessassary… the shoots of the Sheriff would have been enough. Because this scene was so great and emotional and Lydia kinda take very much from this scene. The Sheriff is shooting his wife – the wife he loves so much that he carried the rings years after her death. The only person he loved enough that actually could have taken the place of Stiles. He shoots her without hesitating because she is hurting his son. Without a second of thougths he decided for his son.

DW: Dark Eyes 4 – The Monster of Montmarte

Hey Guys,

welcome to the second adventure of the Dark Eyes 4 Box The Monster of Montmarte. Again it is with the eighth Doctor and Liv which are now not searching for Molly but the TARDIS. So we are still in 1921 but they traveled to Paris. This story is bringing the first story into the whole Dark Eyes story. They are all conacted to a big story.

Welcome to Paris

Like I said before Liv and the Doctor are searching for their TARDIS. For that reason they split up to cover more ground in shorter time. When the Doctor met an artist which is telling him about the monster that is going around Paris and brings him to the Red Pagoda. Liv get followed by suspious peopel, which she of course notice every fast. They want to make a deal with her and the Red Pagoda is playing a role in it.
The Red Pagoda is like the moulin rouge and has this establishment something to do with the artists which vanish in Paris.
I can’t tell more about the story without spoiling the story.

Listing or not

I would say this is one of the weaker stories of the Dark Eyes Story. But Liv and Doctor have time to shine in it and go their own ways. The characters are nice and interessting. So it makes definitly up for the weaker story (it is still a good story). Also it makes sure to conacted the story of these box with the stories before. What makes the story so much better again.

Person of Interest: Season 4

Hey Guys,

here we come to the fourth season of Person of Interest. The finale of season 3 (POI S03) left has with a lot of questions and parting ways. Our four heros are now on different ways and have new covers. It left me in fear of what happens to Fusco and how all of this will go. The machine seemed to send a number to kill but Harold decided not to what made it easy for Samaritan get the power. This season is a war between the machine and Samaritan. It is about survivle.

A Purpose

Last season we saw John question the whole we need to save the people. He doesn’t saw a sense in fighting if you can’t win. John wanted to go away and all that behind him. But Lionel was the one in the right. Just because you can’t win you don’t stop fighting. The lifes they saved they mattered. Linonel made such a great developement in the whole serie and i love to see this. This season it is not John questioning their mission. He and Shaw find it really hard to stand down and don’t save the numbers.
The on questioning everything is Finch. He is disapointed in the machine. He built her to save people not to kill. He lost is believe that every life counts that this is as important or even more than ever.
We see Finch struggle this season between his believes, his fear of Samaritan, about what it means to be at war, sacrifices and guilt. But not just Finch is struggling this season. Because we see for the first time Root struggling. Root always believed in the machine. The machine was always the most important think in her life and she was ready to do everything to protect it. But this season all that is wavering. I love to see these two people that had clear believes struggling with them and find a way to life with themself and what they are ready to do.

Root

Root came a long way way from season one (POI S01). She was a hacker that was always interested in herself. She lost all her believes in the human race. Computer was so much more to her than human ever could. When she discovered that there is this machine. The machine became the most important think in her life. She made a machine that always try to save people the focus of her life. She never gave a shit for people (after the accident). But this machine saw all of the cruel world. She saw every murder, every war but she don’t waver. The machine believes in people, she wants to protect them. The machine thinks that life is something important. She believes that she can help but that the world belongs to the people in it, not to her.
This makes Root and the relationship to this machine so amazing and interesting. Yeah Root came a long way but her character gets even better this season. I love every bit about it.

More respect for Lionel

One of the best things these season is that everyone have alot more respect for Lionel and his work. In the last three season they always demanded that he has time for them. They never thought about him and his real work. But now that they have there life on their own they seems to understand how hard it is and what Lionel put on the line for them. Because he has a job, a job he can easily lose because of them. So i love to see all of them taking more consideration of is situation. Also i really love to see Lionel and John work closer with each other. Even when i like Fusco pairing up with Shaw is the best. I love the platonic friendship that developes between them.

Watching or not

I am sure everyone already know this answer. Go and watch this season too. It is amazing, we see our characters struggle and i am sure you will lose tears. I cried so much this season. It was so emotional and amazing, so sad and so funny. Being a hero and have a normal job is not so easy and i really like how they show a little of it. That John has problems at work or had to sit out for a number or even have to visit a shrink. Sadly Bear as much to little screen time because we all knew he is the real hero here.
