It also has my Figment that looks exactly like debmommy22 's Figment and I talk about Grad Nite.

The Toddler Dolls in The Disney Animators’ Collection

So, has anyone seen the princess toddler dolls in The Disney Animators’ Collection? They're basically some of the most adorable dolls ever created.

I'm thinking of getting Mulan...

Day 26 – Favourite death in the series.

Day 26 – Favourite death in the series.

Now with Torchwood, this seems like a complete oxymoron. Even when a death seems beautifully done, it's kind of ruined by being unnecessary and/or stupid. However, I did like when Clem shot Jack in Day Four. It made sense and Ianto was right there so he runs to Jack, letting Gwen take care of Clem. Then, Ianto cradles Jack's body so he has a comforting presence when he wakes up again which Jack really needs, judging from how Jack grabs onto Ianto once he comes back. To me, you can see how much they love each other right there and how much Ianto has had to go through that before.

Day 28 – Favourite location or set.

I really liked when they were on the beach in California and outside on the Plass in Cardiff. Yes, I've enjoyed whenever it's been really sunny and they're out in it, but my favorite was in Countrycide since they were out of their element and in more relaxed clothes. Jeans, yay! I think it was so creative of them to have them out of their element without blowing their Hub or making them fugitives like in later seasons.

Day 29 – Where you think the series should continue to.

Day 29 – Where you think the series should continue to.

I think I laid out most of it in my last review of Miracle Day, but most important:

Plot and the Big Bad should NEVER be the same thing. A Big Bad can drive the plot through actions but an author/showrunner should never just assume those actions make for great plot when they amount to us watching them make a sandwich. Instead, they have to be balanced with other occasional plots that have nothing to do with the Big Bad, like in Buffy when Oz turned out to be a werewolf or they went to a Halloween party at a fraternity.

Constantly reminding us that all government and drug companies and people in power are evil is getting old. No, on second thought, it IS old. It was a lot more fun when there was this sense of the other organizations hating Torchwood but grudgingly realizing that Torchwood was best for certain situations.

Stop killing off anyone remotely interesting or empathetic to the audience!

In fact, I recommend watching MI5/Spooks which has gone on forever and been through several casts but is more like Law & Order in that it's very pleasurable to watch despite that unlike ER which totally showed its age toward the end. MI/Spooks can kill off anyone at any time but the plots are so engaging and the newest characters so likable and interesting...that you keep watching anyway. This is what Torchwood needs to do.

They need a Hub and cool stuff again. I miss it. I really do. You can still show them having to Macgyver stuff they need on the fly when situations come up, but it's way more professional to have a base of operations...and if you still have them being fugitives AGAIN, I'm going to scream.

DO NOT EVER KILL RHYS, ANDY OR THE BABY!

Undo what you did to Rex.

Jilly is an opportunist. Make her an actual opportunist where sometimes, it's in her better self interest to help Torchwood. Also, it would be nice to have a backstory or even sort of private information about her...

If you claim a show is international, I expect more than five countries...especially when three of those are still in Great Britain.

Last but not least, I want Jack to meet Eleven and preferably be an actual companion. It'd be good for him.

I should have sketched something so it was prettier but I wasn't inspired. I did crappy Paint instead.
