Haha SPOILERS DON'T READ

In Russell's world, bumsex with Russell Tovey pretty much fixes all your emo manpain, no matter how vast, yeah?

That's pretty faily right there. Not as faily as that thing with Martha and you know who, but still pretty fucking offensively faily. As was that thing with Donna. Wow, that's a lot of fucking fail to heap upon an awful lot of companions.

DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOUR ASS RUSSELL.

Also, did Simm just disappear, never to be mentioned again, or did it just seem that way?

"Realizing that the Martha/Mickey pairing would have worked if they had been in CoE, I'm giving RTD a pass on that one so long as it was already filmed by the time they didn't renew. If RTD knew and didn't bother to rewrite 30 seconds of script, then again its lazy and a slap to the audience."

I have to admit they do have chemistry, but it still felt kind of lazy like they were the only two left of the Doctor's crew so why not put them together so we don't have to both with separate goodbyes.

and well, the last thing that RTD would give us would be Rose happy with Mickey, even though that's where she was in her life before she met the Doctor.

But Rose is with that other Doctor in the parallel (?) universe/timeline whatever. And how could she turn down a mortal version of a TimeLord for a mere mortal?

Personally, I'd take Mickey over The Doctor in a heartbeat. A single one, not a double.

Yeah, Ten never appealed to me either. As far as the timeline goes, we could've seen Mickey with Rose rather than with Martha as the Doctor did go back to pre-Nine Rose rather than to where Rose is now with Handy in the parallel universe, but that would never happen in RTD-World, Rose and Ten are twu-wuv 4eva!

And since EoT was filmed well after CoE, RTD knew that Martha with Mickey was going to come out of nowhere, given that she'd only met him in Journey's End, especially given what we found out about Martha in TW series 2 and CoE. So yeah, lazy writing as a way to wedge in one more character from his own time in Who.
