So I'm now five episodes into season two and my impressions after the season premier have so far not been disappointed. This season is just so much better than the first one.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate Owen Harper? He is so good. I loved him in "Meat," and he is just the most adorable little dork in "Adam." So good.
I'm appreciating that we're getting more background story on Jack. He's such a complex and interesting character and you could have shows about him forever and still not know everything. I really hope we get to find out what happened in the two years that the Time Agency erased his memories.
I also like Gwen a lot more this season. She's really pulling together as a character that I can like.
Also Ianto! Now that he's actually an important character they had to give him a personality, and he's funny! I love it. Funny is good.
There are still some inconsistencies that bother me, like Ianto's wishy-washy love life. He went from being so depressed about Lisa and in constant distress about it, to being in love with Jack, to in "Adam" still being upset about Lisa. I mean. I know time passed and he moved on but still hasn't completely let go and that makes sense but I guess because we don't see a whole lot of that progression, it's a little jarring when it does come up. The same is also true of Tosh, who, one episode, is crazy about a soldier who gets unfrozen four times a year, and then in the next one she's falling all over herself to make Owen sandwich.
