S4 Companion

[mrv3000]

And the new S4 DW companion is...



Donna!

HA! I kid you not. Catherine Tate's coming back. :D

Back when The Runaway Bride aired, I wasn't wild about her character, just because she was *too* goofy for what I was ready for. But now - GIMME THE GOOFY, YOU ANGSTY CARDIFF NUTTERS!

Also, Donna can feel free to slap the Doctor again whenever he gets...weird.

ETA: OH THANK YOU, GOD! WE WON'T HAVE TO DO TARDIS 101 *AGAIN*! *FLAILS* I AM WITH JOY!!!

No WAY!

I'm starting to think that RTD KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING. Donna just wouldn't have worked right after season two. But now? We are so ready for her and Ten's wonky interactions.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

WAY!

DONNA!!!! (and her OTP *points to icon*).

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I'm still not ready to dismiss the theory of RTD and his giant mount of crack... *eyes*

But I think you're right. Donna works now where she just would not have been a good fit in S3.

I think that not only WILL she smack him around... but she KNOWS about the TARDIS, she WON'T be falling in love with him... YEAH! Yeah. :D

Donna would *totally* snog Jack. And I'm not quite sure if he's be pleased or horrified... :D

This is the best DW news I have heard in a loooooooong while. I am so psyched about it.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I'm oddly pleased about it as well, just because of the comic relief. I'm desperate for comic relief right now.

[kammgirl.livejournal.com]

Seriously? For the whole season?

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Looks like it.

Still in a bit of shock but I think it's definitely a good shock!!

Thanks for the info and can't wait to see Donna come back next series! She made the Runaway Bride fun to watch for a bit and she got the Doctor to talk about what he was going through.

I agree with previous comments that she'll fit better in Series 4! ^_^

Good to have some good news, because the fandom crap today really pissed me off.

[ivydoor.livejournal.com]

Not only that but her character started out as very shallow but by the end, she was a lot more worldly and we found out she was quite a bit deeper than she had ever allowed herself to be. I can see a well traveled Donna coming back and keeping him in line while being a shoulder for him.

And she's ginger. That gives her points with me right there. ;)

Hey! A companion who already knows the TARDIS is bigger on the inside! Who already knows at least a little about Rose! Woot! *twirls you around*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I'm seeing wacky adventures in their future. I'm so ready for wacky adventures.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

HOORAY!!!

And as katesutton said, she's the next best thing to a granny with a large purse. :D

[katesutton.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes, well when it comes to PLOT POINTS? *RTD fails* *sometimes* But he's got a good handle on the emotional arcs, for which I HEART HIM.

[ivydoor.livejournal.com]

Dammit! Will you stop giving me icon material?? LOL

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

It'll be interesting to see what kind of character arc they end up giving her, since they kinda did a mini-arc already.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Have heard fandom has only gotten worse today. I don't even want to look. Seriously.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

MWAH!

[beck-liz.livejournal.com]

Hehehehe. I really want to see that now. *encourages*

[kammgirl.livejournal.com]

I actually ranted in my LJ and I feel better. I just looked at what my flist said about the situation. I don't even click anymore. I think it just riled me because I have dealt with the same issue in another fandom and it is so ugly and ridiculous. But I am claming down now. :)
