*shrug* I could have liked her a lot more. Just it's all so fast and I have no PoV reason to latch onto her and, yeah, she's not a type I get that interested in.
How could you have liked her more? Can you give me any specific examples of what you'd have liked them to have done differently? I truly am honestly interested.
It worked with me on Mickey for some reason. Sort of in the middle for Jack. I just... don't see Rose as really doing anything as great as her centrality might suggest. (And I realise that this may simply be that RTD is not that bothered about plot and activity and is more into emotional grounding, so if she's serving that purpose then on those terms it works.) She never... does anything that I wouldn't expect her to do as a matter of course. So it could well just be that her narrative role has no novelty value for me.
Remind me of something -- you dislike Buffy and like Faith, I believe. What are your other likes and dislikes among the Buffy/Angel females?
Nothing else they can do with her really. I think she'll do something a bit fancy as well (investigate on her own like Sarah? Something like that) but it's homeward bound, I think.
You hate her character that much? To condemn her to something that she's flat-out told us is not enough for her?
