But GitF is like S2 in 45 minutes. The love, the loss, the loneliness. And it's Ten's Dalek in that it lays out his motivations and his way of looking at the world. And more than School Reunion it lays out what life will be like for him after Rose. Same as it always was, with a few happy memories and some sad ones. It's incredibly tragic in that, but with that resignation to the inevitability of time and change. "Everything ends" but with clockdroids and a horse.
I adored her from the beginning -- her attempts to make sense of the Doctor's world, her refusal to let go of finding out the truth and searching it out on her own, her ability point out the trees that the Doctor misses while he's looking for the forest, her incredible bravery in saving the Doctor, and the look on her face when she runs into the TARDIS
Her first episode I found her perfectly capable and potentially interesting. But I could never have loved her, and the universe loving her just made me go off her because it felt so absurd.
