Yeah, that was weird. I don't think you need to do spoiler font here, I think I was doing it for your benefit before!
I already know what I'm gonna call her. Got a name all picked out...

And thanks, Nora and everyone who used the spoiler font to protect me from DW spoilers. I appreciate this!

Oh, and Daleks in German? Awesome.

I'm still angry about Donna's conclusion.

I agree, she deserved better. I felt as torn apart at the conclusion of Journey's End as I was when Nine regenerated.
I'm so glad to have known her though.

Indeed. And something I can't even imagine saying based on her first appearance.

I'm angry, or just don't understand lots of things.
And yet, dalek Kan or Caan or whatever you spell its name? So damn funny.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
What specifically are you angry about, or not understanding, Shir?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

That so worked!!
I was a big fan of that episode, except for the whole "human Doctor perfect for Rose" bit. That was really lame, IMO. Although I did like the way that Tennant played him as a blend of the Doctor and Donna. "Oi, watch it, space boy!" "Oi, watch it, human!"
I'm glad I asked the co-worker who borrowed my S4 DVDs for them back when I ran into her on Friday--now I really want to watch the whole season again!
Donna's end was so damn tragic, but I kinda liked the way they left it. I'm hoping/guessing that she went on to become more than she was before she met the Doctor even with the mind wipe, just because her mom won't be such a Debbie Downer anymore.
I really have got to work on that fanfic I've had brewing in the back of my head, where she ends up working with Sarah Jane in an investigative story, but Sarah Jane has to remember not to mention the Doctor while working with her. I'd like to see what I can do with a Donna coming into her own without the Doctor's influence.

It was very much a Hero's Journey for her.
