I just felt like the best way Jack's character could be further explored would be through his relationship with Ianto, and now that's not going to happen. The writers have a right to do what they want with their storyline- I just think it wasn't so much "art" as it was "shock value for the sake of shock value." And if I do continue to watch Torchwood, I'm certainly not going to be getting attached to any of the characters they'll introduce and probably kill off in the future. You keep killing off characters, and the drama involved in killing them off is lost. Everyone becomes a red-shirt that none of the fans care about. I only hope they've got some pretty phenomenal plot-lines in mind for series 4, because without them, I'm not going to stay interested.
