Donna Noble! I was apathetic going into this year. The year’s Christmas special had left a lot to be desired, and though I had liked Donna well enough in her Christmas special, I didn’t necessarily think she would carry the show for me. WRONG! I think most of fandom was so unexpectedly won over by Donna that she rapidly became a true favorite. Ten’s announcement that he was leaving just capped this as my favorite series yet!

1. I can (and do) loop “The Fires of Pompeii” on a regular basis. Once again, the music is amazing and really helps set the time and tone. Donna’s compassion for the residents of Pompeii along with her willingness to stand up to The Doctor put me firmly in her corner. Bonus: Dad’s grilling of Quintus: “How’s your head, Sunshine? HOW’S YOUR HEAD?!?” gets me every time. Hee! In truth I could do a “Top 5” for just this episode alone, I love it so much.

2. The top secret reveal at the end of “Partners In Crime” was a true OMG moment. Well played.

3. “Turn Left” was the most amazing episode in terms of character development we’ve seen from DW. Donna’s speech just before turning had me in tears and I came to love her as my favorite companion of all.

4. Who doesn’t love reunions? The final episodes were a fan’s dream come true in many ways. Sarah Jane, K-9, Mickey(!), Jackie, the Torchwood crew, and even Rose made me happy to have been a fan for all this time.

5. The “Song of Freedom” as heard by the DoctorDonna on “The Planet of the Ood” and again in “Journey’s End”. In conjunction with #4 on this list, it was just a powerful, sappy, melodramatic, humorous moment in time. I cried, laughed, and looped.

More: I truly loved the River Song storyline and want to know more! After an initial review of “meh”, “The Unicorn and the Wasp” has proved that it, too, is loopable. We met Merlin in “Midnight”–sweet! Did I mention how utterly fantastic Donna was? Just as much so: Wilf, her grandad. LOVE him! His final scene with The Doctor was heartbreaking and lovely. BEST SERIES OF ALL!

  36. Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!|

  42. When someone writes an piece of writing he/she maintains the idea of a user in his/her brain that how a user can understand it. Thus that’s why this paragraph is great. Thanks!|

  45. Everything said made a bunch of sense. However, what about this? suppose you composed a catchier post title? I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added a headline to maybe get a person’s attention? I mean BLOG_TITLE is kinda boring. You might peek at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create post titles to grab viewers interested. You might add a video or a related pic or two to grab readers excited about everything’ve got to say. In my opinion, it could make your posts a little livelier.|

  49. A motivating discussion is worth comment. I think that you need to write more about this subject matter, it might not be a taboo matter but typically people do not talk about such topics. To the next! Kind regards!!|
