But if this character is going to be the Doctor's wife, I'm going to care about her whether I particularly like her or not, because that's an awfully important relationship to the Doctor and I do care about the Doctor -- he's the reason I watch the show, in fact. I especially am going to care about this character if the guy who is taking over running the show is the one who introduces her into the narrative, because that leads me to believe that this is a storyline that could very easily be picked up again.
