It's the writing. And, really, they need to start with the first Eccleston season and watch until they catch up.

Yeah, there's some bad stuff *cough*DonnaNoble*cough*, but then there are episodes like Blink that are just beyond fantastic.

- See, now you're just talking crazy shit. Donna is the worst companion of the current series. - TWuG Jun 26, 10:17 25
  - Coincidentally I saw 'Micky' last night at a screening. -- nm - LMS Jun 26, 10:38

  - Couldn't be more wrong. Her's is the *spoiler* - Remlik Jun 26, 10:19 22
    - She was terrible, I hated her and that's a lost season due to her presence. -- nm - David Jun 26, 10:24 4
      - again, couldn't be more wrong. The season 2 part finale is *stellar* - Remlik Jun 26, 10:33 2
        
        She was terrible, her episodes sucked and I counted down the moments until she was replaced. - David Jun 26, 10:37
        
        *spoils* - TWuG Jun 26, 10:35
      - her and Tennant had some fantastically funny scenes. -- nm - loosilu Jun 26, 10:31

      - I'll grant you... - Remlik Jun 26, 10:35
      - she was one of the only companions who - loosilu Jun 26, 10:30
      - she's hit or miss, I'll give you that, but Martha is just *bad*. -- nm - znufrii Jun 26, 10:24 13
        
        I liked Martha but hated all her stories. -- nm - loosilu Jun 26, 10:31 8
        
        "Blink" is with Martha -- nm - amoxy Jun 26, 10:35 7
        
        and the John Smith stories as well. -- nm - Remlik Jun 26, 10:38 5
        
        unwatchable. -- nm - loosilu Jun 26, 10:39 4
        
        disagree - znufrii Jun 26, 10:41 1
        
        I really, really hate that arc. -- nm - loosilu Jun 26, 10:42
        
        Those are 2 of my favourite episodes. -- nm - LMS Jun 26, 10:40 1
        
        I will try to be friends with you anyway. -- nm - loosilu Jun 26, 10:41
        
        barely, thank god. -- nm - znufrii Jun 26, 10:35
        
        Yeah, I'm ignoring you because you have been taking something that has twisted your mind. - TWuG Jun 26, 10:26 2
        
        that would be all fine and dandy if I could stand Freema Agyeman's acting... - znufrii Jun 26, 10:32 1
        
        *throws up hands, walks away* -- nm - TWuG Jun 26, 10:33
        
        She's everything a companion should be. -- nm - David Jun 26, 10:25
