Obligatory post for the ending of Doctor Who (yes, SPOILERS)

1- I loved the fact that they all interacted. I loved that Rose admitted Martha was good. I loved seeing so many people in the Tardis.

2- Is it wrong for me to agree with Davros? Because, yes the Doctor makes people different. Most of the time that means fighting stuff. Murderers? Jack used to be worse, Martha so far is all threats for a good reason

4- I feel slightly cheated by the double Doctor/Rose thing. ACTUALLY I FEEL VERY CHEATED because I honestly think that if it wasn't that for plot devices having Rose as a companion wouldn't work, she would have stayed with real!Doctor.

--- CAN I DISAGREE WITH YOU? I'M GONNA DISAGREE WITH YOU. This second Doctor was the Doctor, and he really couldn't do anything but STAY with Rose. I think the three of them knew that, and the Doctor DOES LOVE Rose a LOT and he knows that as a Time Lord, he can't make her happy, but he can as a human.

I think Rose would've done exactly what she did, she'll think of the Doctor once in a while and wonder if he's fine. But in the end, he's doing what he's done for AGES... and she gets her human.

IN SUMMARY. THE DOCTOR FAILS VERY HARD.

SHUUUUUUN- no, wait. YOU CAN ALWAYS DISAGREE WITH ME. I like it, because it makes for interesting conversation.

From the characters point of view, it can work, but the whole human!Doctor feels forced. If he hadn't existed (say, the regeneration light hits Donna because she refuses to let him go as he 'dies' and the Doctor doesn't regenerate, but we still get Doctor-y Donna. And then, as Micky decides to stay, so does Rose, because EVERYONE KNOWS SHE WANTS TO STAY. And then we still go nooooo for Donna, but the Doctor does not stay emo and fails less) things could have still happened. It's just that from a tv series POV, we have had Rose as a companion for too long.

I AGREE THAT HE FAILS

Oh yah, Human!Doctor was ttly a plot device to get Rose to go the hell away. BUT IT WAS IC :(

I think that what bugs me the most is that original!Doctor just stepped aside. Okay, I agree is IC. But I had hopes he would have learned anything during the past season. And now he doesn't even have Donna to slap him :(

Sorry to comment this here but I'm not sure where else to ask so....

You answered my DW finale reaction poll and I assume then, we have a common interest in DW and I was wondering if it would be okay to friend you?

[elihice]

Sure! No need to ask. :)
