You know, I never throught Torchwood would join the long, sad, steriotype-ridden ranks of "every m/m and f/f couple's storyline must end with at least one of them dying/must ever be allowed a happy ending."
If RTD had really wanted to be daring and go where no television show or movie had ever gone before, he should have let Jack and Ianto live happily ever after. Even QaF didn't do that (they bizarrely had Justin dump Brian for no reason in the last episode -- not for all the shit Brian had pulled for five seasons that would have fully merited kicking him to the curb, but for... I don't know. I watched it and I'm still not sure).
