New Doctor Who companion announced

They need to actually aim it at someone and stop trying to please everyone. Either make it a kids or an adults show, try and aim at both and it just fails to deliver really.

We had whatshername. The other ginger one, but old.

The companions are 'young and pretty', because so is the doctor...

Also, River Song is 'companionish' and hardly young...

I agree that Gillian looks better, but to be fair, she looks better than about 99% of the population....

I have to agree that I think Moffat is an awful awful writer compared to Davis. The way the Doctor didn't die at the end of the last season just seemed like a cheap way out. It is starting to make me think it's not so good. Which is a real shame, because Matt Smith isn't actually a bad Dr.

They're young and pretty because it's a show aimed at children.

I'm with the thoughts above tbh, I'm losing interest in Doctor who. They're trying to appeal to both the adult and childrens markets which leads to a lack of consistency in the show imo.
 
I genuinely can't remember an episode with Matt Smith that had me gripped and interested.

Not that Smith is a bad doctor, but the writing for him has been terrible. :(.
 
Am I the only one who wishes they would try something a little difference for the companion? Like having only a guy, but not one thats the arm candy of a female companion. Also one thats not as useless as Rory.

Or have an alien companion of some sort. That might be interesting, having the doctor have to explain Earth culture to the outsider.
 
I wouldn't exactly say that Jack was there because of a female companion... but then he wasn't there for very long, so you know. Would have been interesting to see how things might have panned out if Christopher had stayed for longer.
 
Now I am REALLY happy about this. Never seen her before last nights ep and thought she was stunning. I was thinking that I bet she becomes the new companion but was disappointed when she ended up what she was (but I guessed it) do I am looking forward to her :)
