I kinda liked Rex, but no where near as much as Esther because Esther could both weild a gun and throw the punches when required to AND feel emotion, whereas it seemed Rex could only do the former.<br /><br />Since Esther won't come back and Rex (probably) won't be going anywhere, I hope they improve his characterisation if TW comes back.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06286350532717543193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-89359472149693185602011-10-22T21:45:00.808+01:002011-10-22T21:45:00.808+01:00It always bothered me that Jack just assumed he wa...It always bothered me that Jack just assumed he was mortal again because he got a cut that behaved exactly like every other post-Miracle humans' injuries. And everyone just went along with it! If/when it healed naturally, that would have been grounds to suspect he was mortal but not before.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-66848098866086666872011-10-22T05:03:54.645+01:002011-10-22T05:03:54.645+01:00I think it was clear that he was brought back perm...I think it was clear that he was brought back permanently in The Parting of the Ways. <br />Everything with him becoming mortal and his blood making Rex immortal doesn't make sense. <br />Technically I think he is still mortal. He is just fixed. He's not immortal, he's just mortal forever. <br /><br />Whatever caused the turnaround in Miracle Day had to be of a different nature because people healed at average pace (if at all; it didn't seem clear). This is proven in how people were being killed via incineration but Jack survived incineration in series 4 of Doctor Who. <br /><br />I'm assuming then that the effect had to be similar to that of the Immortality Gate. Jack simply didn't fit the template, or at least the whole template. Perhaps it took him as human but attempting to apply the Miracle to him didn't work and the resulting effect was making him a proper person. Like giving certain medicines to a healthy person. Even this doesn't make sense though, unless maybe the whole miracle was some kind of alteration in time. <br /><br />The Rex thing doesn't even make sense though. I'm not touching that.Dylannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-12767928832932169572011-10-21T09:59:32.079+01:002011-10-21T09:59:32.079+01:00@Anonymous:
