Being British, I am obligated to defend the long time running sci fi series Doctor Who with my heart and soul (despite only actually watching the 2005 revival onward). However, some of the Doctor's companions will nearly drive me to tears. *COUGH* Rose Tyler and Amy Pond. Naturally they're the ones most people like the best, so I'm in the minority boat here when I say they infuriate me.
Brace yourselves, a rant about Rose Tyler is about to ensue. Ladies and gentlemen, please take note of your nearest exit.
I don't understand everyone's obsession with Rose. Literally everything she does ruins something. If I was the Doctor I would have dropped her off long ago. And EVERY SINGLE TIME she asks "was that my fault?" with the same doe eyed expression. "Yes Rose, you ripped apart time and space...AGAIN" was my reaction to nearly every thing that happened (particularly in Season 1). You'd also think that after screwing up the universe multiple times she'd actually listen to the Doctor?
Also, should I point out she literally dropped everything to go travelling through time and space not thinking to question the man that she might be travelling with. She didn't tell her Mum and was listed as a missing person for 12 months. The only episodes where I wasn't yelling at the television were the season finales of 2 and 4.
Jack. Donna. Martha. K-9. Wilfred. In my opinion THESE characters are the ones worth raving on about.
(Leaving on a positive note: how awesome is this TARDIS teapot!?)
