oh, I definitely hear the brogue, in "universe" and it "blood and anger and revenge" and "when we first met"
Jayne: What're you gonna tell the others? Mal: About what? Jayne: About why I'm dead. Mal: Hadn't thought about it. Jayne: Make something up. Don't tell 'em what I did.

eh, I'm kind of with her. I would think that the new Doctor wouldn't want to be with her, since she would always see him as second best.
I also can't see a Doctor with significant personality traits from Donna being terribly indulgent of Rose's need to be the center of the universe. Donna was exactly what the Doctor needed to whap him upside the head and stop his moping, but can you imagine Rose's reaction the first time her Doctor yells "OI, SHUT IT!" at her?

True, but I doubt that Rose would do anything to prompt that. Donna, while having some good traits, could be exceedingly annoying.
Hey, here's something I didn't see anyone talk about --
why/how did the door close on Donna? Was it Dalek Khan? Was it the Tardis acting to save itself?

why/how did the door close on Donna?
I got the impression it was Dalek Caan. And prophecy. At least we didn't get any demon spawn out of the deal.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
It's actually a little problem I have with Captain Jack. He's supposed to be omni/bisexual, but he only shows overt attraction to men (Gwen notwithstanding). This, of course, could be my bitterness/wishful thinking.
Uhm, I think you need to go back and watch some of Jack's interactions with just about every character who wasn't shooting at him on either show. From romancing Rose when he meets her, to flirting with the old secretary at Reese's trucking company, there's been lots of overt attraction to women. He just seems to more easily end up in bed (or wherever's convenient) with men.

Not to mention that relationship he'd had with the old woman who loved fairies - whom he had obviously loved when she was of an age, and then put himself back in her life when enough time had passed he could pretend he was the son of her old flame. That was an important love to him, more than just sex, but I have a hard time thinking the two of them were entirely chaste with one another. Too much passion for that, and too much wistfulness on Jack's part for him to have looked her up simply for charity's sake.

Yeah my read on Captain Jack is that his omnisexuality, though highly inclusive of women, still is stronger towards men. And after all, no reason bi-sexuality or omni-sexuality has to be divided exactly 50/50 between genders.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I want Jenny to show up and Donna to go into crisis, and remember everything. Once she gets cured, she gets to tear the Doctor a new one.
if she doesnt remember the Doctor, how can she remember Jenny? Although I guess Jenny might talk to her and jog her memory.
Exactly.
