"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Just caught up on the last (US) DW and liked it a lot. Much as I enjoyed Rose, Martha is shaping up to be my favorite companion. Granted, any memories of the pre-9 companions I did see are a distant memory (didn't even remember Sarah Jane any, though I appreciated her reappearence on principle). And I'm not ahead of the game episode-wise (though I'm vaguely and not-so-vaguely spoiled for some bits and pieces of what's to come).
I was seriously afraid Martha's sister was toast there at the end when she went back after the two of them (if only to cement the mother's antipathy for 10). I was actually relieved when that didn't come to pass.

I love Martha differently than I love Rose. Besides vague childhood memories of the original DW, I only really have the new Who to go on. I think with Rose there was the infectious (or annoying, depending on your mileage) joy and love of simply being with the Doctor, almost unexplained, but with Martha we get more of an independent person who is awesome in her own right, appreciated by the Doctor for what she brings: her knowledge and appreciation for what she's experiencing "We could die, but we're on the moon and we could die, but, THE MOON!".
I love them both. And I love that they're so different and individual.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
I like Martha the way I liked Romana -- capable. She's smart and together. She has a huge crush on the doctor, but she makes good decisions. She didn't go back into the building because she wanted him to love her, she did it for her friend, because she trusted him, and because it was the right thing to do. Which is the same reason that her sister went.

Zenkitty - what were DF's ratings like in April - after BSG was done?
(I looked but couldn't figure out where to find them!)
I could see that while BSG was on, their ratings were pretty similar and sometimes DF did better but BSG finale night DF had a 1. And there was a week where it had less than a 1.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I don't recall the exact from week to week, but it was close to BSG ratings even when BSG was gone, I think. It got a .9 once, I think. Someone posted the ratings somewhere on the Butcher Block forum.

It got a .9 the week that BSG got it's lowest ratings that half of the season too.

I knew this when they started showing wrestling. I figure they're just on a long slow decline to Spike-lite status.
