I'm falling in love. I was worried he would be the Doctor who would do it to me: a bit brash, cocky with an impishly sexy smile. Just watched The Girl in the Fireplace this weekend. (May be my fav episode to date)
Meh - I don't know what people see in Rose. She's only 19, she's petulant. I don't really understand how someone as old as the Doctor is really falling in love with someone so immature.

The Doctor was lonely, she wanted adventure. It developed naturally and wasn't forced. I liked Rose though. She gave the doctor what he needed--a real connection to something.
Matt Smith is still my favorite doctor, although I do like Tennant. DH and I are just finishing the Tennant seasons. I agree with @ivankitteh I never really saw Rose and the Doctor, particularly Tennant as making sense. I liked Martha much better.
To be honest, though, I liked all the companions, but I liked Clara and Martha best.
I loved Martha, we could not stand Donna in the Christmas show. She was so annoying, but she has grown on us. I do miss Rose, but I love Martha the best.

Love David tennant, he is my favorite, and Donna is my favorite companion, however...Clara is a close second. Amy is my least favorite, she bothered me a lot.
Donna is the best! Martha was my least favorite, probably because she was SO into The Doctor. But, I'm rewatching season 3 and I like her more this time around.
The Girl in the Fireplace is one of my all-time favorite episodes. Along with Blink and Silence in the Library.
Yes to all of these, although we recently re-watched Blink and, while we still liked it, I realized I had elevated it to mythical status in my mind. It was really good but not as spectacular as I recalled. We actually spent much of the episode tearing apart the plot holes.
I also completely forgot that Carey Mulligan was in it.

I really wish Sally Sparrow had been a companion. I loved her episode so much.
My favorite companions are Donna and Amy. Martha annoyed me because she was too into The Doctor.
Rose was ok, but like pp said kind of childish. I liked how she ended up with Tennant 2.0, though. It was a good way to wrap up their story. I like Clara, but I don't feel like I've gotten to know her like I have the others. She's kind of meh.
They've sort of half written Clara. Like they went into her character with no real plan, so now she's sort of there with glimpses of more but nothing really substantive.

I think that Rory is my favorite companion. I also really like Amy and Clara. I like Donna alot. I didn't really like Martha and I'm not super into Rose.
I know River isn't really a companion, but I love, love, love, love her. She is amazing.
So...by yesterday, yup. Totally in love with David Tennant after The Impossible Planet/The Satin Pit. Just finished up through Doomsday. Stupid Rose. All that making me cry gave me a headache.
My favorite doctor ever. I have a huge crush on him. Really helps that my H kinda looks like him. DT is right at the top of my laminated list.
I am in love with Eccleston and I think my husband looks like him a bit. It seems like there are a lot of us here who are with people who remind us of our favorite characters!
