Torchwood spoiled start to finish.

In the first episode of Torchwood a straight team member is killed off to make room on the team for the audience's identity figure. Later in the first season she comes back and tries to kill the new character to stay alive. In the middle of the second season, a sometimes bi but mostly straight character on the team is killed but resurrected and continues to serve. At the end of the season that character and a sometimes bi but mostly straight character who's got a het crush on the resurrected character are both killed (and not replaced though they were two-fifths of the team). The character who was killed in the pilot and the new character had also had het relationships with the temporarily resurrected character. In the third season miniseries a teammember professing to have been straight until his present relationship dies.

So ... now Torchwood is homophobic? Because it saved the poof for last?
