I agree with the last two posts ITT.

No, it's just something of a theme I am seeing.  For example, the hilarious bad slashfic of Doctor Who that was called Torchwood was marketed as a "darker and edgier" take on Doctor Who.  The equally hilariously bad Stargate: Universe was not only described as "darker and edgier" but also "cerebral".  Both were not especially complex, or morally ambiguous or shocking, but did include a lot of sexual references and scenes implying it.

I don't mind sex on teh TV, but lets at least be honest, and call it fanservice or something.

Fuck you, Torchwood is awesome  :argh!:

I will agree its not exactly darker or edgier than Dr Who (except Children of Earth) or really related at all aside from being a spinoff.
