I didn't say I hated her, I just found her a bit vanilla, but if you enjoy vanilla, then so be it. A lot of people hate Donna because she is that crazy bitter lemon sorbet flavor that only the real eccentrics go for and smother with chocco-sauce. I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT CRAIG AND STORMAGEDDON. I FEEL SO TERRIBLE NOW. I think Craig, Stormy, and Sophie will always hold a special place in my heart. They are going to have a lovely family and I hope we see them again because I loved both of those episodes. Although my favorites are Love and Monsters and The God Complex. I wish the thing causing the hotel in the God Complex was left to mystery and not so simple as a warden of a prison, because then Team TARDIS could return! |

And I repeat, I PERSONALLY found her bland. Davies and the Moff must like her, but she felt flimsy and stereotypical to me. I am just one person in millions that enjoy Doctor Who, so don't try to force the opinions of those millions on me. I am allowed my opinion. |

Never trying to do that never would. Ive met a lot of people who didnt like her. I just tell them what i think. I disagree with you is all i would sqy the same thing to anyone else im not trying to force an opinon on anyone. Yes i would most likely say the same thing on the one million people as well. I think martha was great and the is what i think. I believe steven and the other writers did a wonderful job on her. Just like any of the other companions. @ChewAcca |

@WinterBlossom101 Oh yes, she's loads better than characters on some shows I've seen, she's just not my favorite. What's your favorite alien? The Ood are quite intelligent, so I like them. |

@WinterBlossom101 Yeah, yeah, the Silurians. I just LOVE the 19th century swordmistress Silurian with her servant girl/partner in crime that was at the Battle of Demon's Run. She's so cool she deserves a little mini-series :D |

What is Pond Life? I only watched Doctor Who with a friend, she used some sort of video company or other, I didn't ask her. so this new season will be the first time I've seen Doctor Who on TV. @Angel_Crouleur |

@LightningStrikes24 Pond Life is a series of five short minute-long episodes about the Ponds and how the doctor aways jumps in and out of their life. Here's a link to the first one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMdBsc5pQ1k they're pretty funny :P |

@ibelle It was a truly amazing episode (although I wish they had shown more of the Rory/Amy conflict and then had Rory say 'WE CAN ADOPT!') but I don't believe Oswin is the next companion. Oh, I wish she was because she is brill and I am so very tired of normal human companions, but the Moff specifically said the next companion was going to be a girl named Clara and she's a normal human girl from London. So why debut Jenna early if she was just going to play another character later on? I know they made that mistake with several others (Gwen, Amy, Tosh, and the Master) but that was sort of a test run; they already had Jenna lined up and didn't need to test run her. But I want Oswin as a companion. I want her oh so very dearly. She is just what the series needs, a companion with a clue. Not saying the others are dumb or anything (I love them all in their own respects) but the constant questions gets a bit dull. |

@ChewAcca You know, I agree whole heartedly, it was an amazing episode!!! I LOVED Oswin, but I'm sad to see her go, I think she would've made a brilliant companion. Maybe they had Jenna start as Oswin because of all the nervousness of a new companion? Or maybe to get us Whovians excited...? I guess the only thing we can do is wait until Moffat decides he's starved us enough... |

@LightningStrikes24 Yeah, but they palmed off all the other doubles out of embarrassment. Gwenyth was just Gwen's great-grandmother, Tosh "previously" worked in London, the Master's new form was based off of the Jagrafess's associate, and they never even explained why Amy was an acolyte in The Fires of Pompeii, they just hoped no one would notice. But this is a big, screaming message in the face of fans, and if it was to pacify us, it TOTALLY WORKED. I LOVE HER. SHE IS SO COOL. My real issue is with the new font in the opening sequence. What happened to the in-your-face method? I rather liked it when words Matt Smith were practically launched at my head. And the TARDIS being struck by lightening? That was a stroke of genius for the last two series' but now the TARDIS only appears towards the end. Sad face :( |

@ChewAcca Who knows? We'll just have to wait and see what Moffat says, if he says anything. The only thing I don't get is how they will bring back the Daleks. Sure, they come back again same as the Doctor and Master, but now they've completely forgotten the Doctor. Moffats really going to blow our minds with that one. The TARDIS was in there at the beginning, just not nearly as dramatic. I totally agree with you! It looks like they darkened the actual vortex as well, and in a way, I like the darker method. I also like how the words sort of fade off to the sides, but I agree, I miss the big grey letters and lightning. Also, the DW logo! I hate that they remade it, and I'm sad they only had the DW as a passing remark almost, only having it turn into the TARDIS. Its rightful place is next to the words Doctor Who. ): |

@LightningStrikes24 Yeah, but I sort of like that the Daleks don't know the Doctor any more; it gives them a chance to fear him all over again. Or maybe, we won't see them at all! I feel as if they are classic, yet when they are featured too much in a season they can become overused. Such as the Cybermen for example. Both aliens are like their go-to plotline if they don't have something clever through up quick enough. I'm rewatching Ten and Nine's seasons so I'm all nostalgic for their disco wormhole. My favourite part is when the TARDIS is all suspended and the camera pans around it. |

@ChewAcca Yeah, you're right. I think that's what made me enjoy the new episode, it was something NEW. It wasn't the same old Dalek problems, it had several twist along the way. That's what I meant, bring them back when the next season starts. (I refuse to think if.) Yeah, I loved that! If they could get a mix of all three of them, and make it perfect, then that might just be the best title sequence ever. |
