Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and why ?

If you also admire the Torchwood spin-off series, who are currently your 3 favorite season 1 - 2 (and what little there was of season 3) Torchwood show characters and please separately say why, for each fave character named.
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

Captain Jack: What's not to like? :bolian:
Gwen: She's like the rational bit of the team, plus she's cute. :cool:
Toshiko: I wanted to see more of her...till the idiot writers killed her off. :rolleyes: Plus she was a hottie, also. :cool:
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

1) Gwen. She's hot, she punkish, and you can just fall into that gap (meaning she's not the typical American Hollywood bimbo - she's a real (Welsh?) woman).

2) Captain Jack. Just so mysterious and troubled. And he can't die.
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

Captain Jack - Because, dude, it's Captain Jack! The guy has so many layers and has seen so much.

Gwen - she's hot and doesn't take any b.s. from anybody.

Rhys - he's like the everyman who has stumbled upon all the weirdness that is Torchwood and what they do, and it's fun to see how he reacts to it.

Wait, there's more than three?
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

PC Andy is the only character on that show that I like.
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

Y'know, I find the Torchwood characters to be pretty unlikeable as a whole. Having said that, I do like Ianto; Jack's cute, and PC Andy is my third favourite. On the whole though, I dislike the characters I dislike more than I like the ones I like - if that makes any sense!
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

1. Owen Harper. Generally, my favorite characters on shows tend to be the most abrasive ones (Gaius Balter, Kurt Mendel, Rodney McKay, Arnold Rimmer, Eric Cartman, etc.).

2. Toshiko Sato. Generally, my other favorite characters on shows tend to be my fellow nerds. Plus, she gets many bonus points for her scenes with Mary in "Greeks Bearing Gifts."

3. Rhys. He's just such a good guy. I'm so glad they let him in on the secret of Torchwood.

Honorable mention: Ianto used to be my favorite back in Season 1 when he was chronically underused. Once he started getting more screentime in Seasons 2 & 3, he was less of an underdog and my interest waned.

Gwen. She's hot, she punkish, and you can just fall into that gap (meaning she's not the typical American Hollywood bimbo - she's a real (Welsh?) woman).

You mean the giant Letterman gap between her teeth?

I'll admit I've warmed up to Gwen lately. Generally, she leaves me cold but she is really cute whenever she's onscreen with Rhys.
 
Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

1. Gwen. Hot in a very believable way.

2. Ianto. How the dullest character in S1 became the king of cool I'll never know but what a transformation!

3. Owen. The only character I had any time for in S1, he wan't nice, or likeable in anyway, but he at least felt three dimensional, something none of the others did.

After this Jack then Rhys (who again grew on me a lot after S1!)

Then Tosh- Pretty girl but not the greatest actress in the world.

Finally Marth, see Tosh above :p

I'm just annoyed we never got to see it happen, which ain't fair, since we get to see Jack get it on with everyone. :p

And Mary was a hottie, too.

Agreed on all counts. I do love Frobisher and Andy though.

Of course right now, the only possible answer is Rhys, Andy and Gwen... last ones standing!

Maybe we can get the actresses back to shoot some extra scenes for a special edition of the episode or something?:drool:

2) Tosh
3) Tosh

Re: Who are currently your 3 favorite Torchwood show characters and wh

Jack--he really is what makes the show, for me
Gwen
Ianto (sigh........)

Rhys is OK, too.

I hated Owen, but liked Tosh.

But, after CofE, there really ARE only three characters in Torchwood.
