She stole the limelight, was a know-it-all, was boring yet thought she was wonderful, was full of glib, irritating dialogue, and eventually became a threat to the Doctor and the Tardis. Very glad they killed her off, very glad indeed.

I hope we get to see more of her, the real her, in season 8. "Bubbly personality masking bossy control freak" mustn't become an informed trait but a basis from which character development can begin in ernest.VTECnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5545096155825223340.post-38548041581868899302014-01-31T20:11:42.525-05:002014-01-31T20:11:42.525-05:00Wow, my circle of friends has a WAY different view...Wow, my circle of friends has a WAY different view of her than your circle. Personally, she is my favorite companion of the entire reboot (just barely overtaking Donna and Rory) and she is my wife's second favorite (behind Rose). I think she is easily the best actor they've had on as a companion, and most everyone in my circle of Who fan friends adore her. <br /><br />Mostly I love her because I'm happy Amy is gone. I liked her character's arc on the show, but as an actor, Karen Gillan was atrocious. It might just be because I coach performance as a living, but every time Karen had to actually show emotional range, I found myself yelling at the TV and I could never connect with her as a companion (but I adored Rory, so I dealt with it).

Prior popular companions leaves mid season, then the actor playing the Doctor leaves at the end of the year. Now, a new Doctor comes, and he will get most of the time having his character developed for the viewers, leaving her again to just take crap from fans.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06749765890363007595noreply@blogger.com
