The Master.... John Simm, I love thee. ♥ Seriously. Such a talented man.

Torchwood is great, although a bit silly, but it's the silliness that makes it amusing. Except the whole Ianto/Jack/Gwen/Rhys thing that needs to die. NOW. I've been a fan of Burn Gorman since I saw Bleak House (pre-Torchwood) so I was very happy to see him on the show. He's so awesome. Seriously though, Freema, I'm not happy if she joins the team. I don't understand the love she has in the fandom from certain directions. Sure, she might be a good person but she's not a good actress IMO.

I think that at first I felt like it was really really sad and bitter but then I started to think about it wrote a fic and whatnot and then I sort of decided that I liked the ending. It was the best one DR fans could've gotten considering the circumstances and I think that towards the end of the scene, Rose understood that they were the same Doctor, only that one was mortal. Because there weren't any differences besides the fact that Clone!Doc was a bit more like Nine but that also means that they can start fresh in a way and sort of forget about the past. And I think that would be good for both of them. Clone!Doc and Rose I mean.

S4!Rose wasn't perhaps her best moment since the energy of the show and the writing style and emphasis of the show has sort of turned elsewhere since she left. Now it's more gadgets and monsters and stuff whereas there was a more of an emotional emphasis when she was on the show, I think.

And I do agree that Donna went a little bit in the shadows because of Rose's return as the same time as her return was shadowed by the big-ass reunion with all the companions we've seen in New Who.

Actually, I think that Donna got a really beautiful, but tragic ending. To be honest, even though she sort of became reduced to her former self and lost all of these amazing qualities about her, she is - I think - the only one of the Doctor's companions who is able to go back to a normal life - even if she didn't choose it.

I just hope she finds Lee though. I thought he and Donna were really sweet.

I think Rose is perhaps my favourite companion (mostly because she was THE companion for me and the first one and S1 still remains as my favourite season) but if I had to choose to be one, I'd be Donna.
