Hi! Remember me? Stalking your journal again because you say pretty things and I've got this strange Doctor Who addiction.
The Doctor is my emotional anchor in season three, when all through the first two seasons, it was Rose.
I so agree. Martha's really not doing anything for me. But you know what? That's okay. I don't think I need her to. I'd like to sympathize a little more with her than I do, but I'm so enthralled with the Doctor's story this season that I don't mind.
Maybe it's all my years of watching the Jossverse, but I really like the darker, almost bleak sense to this season. Oh, it *hurts* because I adore the Doctor, but it feels very right at the same time. And I appreciate RTD for actually following through on those emotions. But he's lost the Time War, and then he lost Rose, whose importance to him hasn't been diminished at all. No wonder he's in a dark place. If he was bouncing from the walls and impossibly happy, it wouldn't be true to his character.
It's a near impossible balance to walk, but David Tennant is more than pulling it off for me. He's breaking my heart and I'm loving him for it.
