The Sweet, Sweet Pie of Smugness

Well, we can't pronounce on ALL the predictions yet, but young, white, cis-female, and conventionally attractive? I think we're there on those:

The Doctor's new companion is revealed

Who she's playing, how the Doctor meets her, and even where he finds her, are all part of one of the biggest mysteries the Time Lord ever encounters. Even by the Doctor's standards, this isn't your usual boy meets girl. - I suspect the biggest mystery the Doctor ever encounters might be overselling it a bit. And boy meets girl? REALLY? Eurgh.

I'm sure I'll be able to put up with her character, maybe even I'll like her, but it would have been nice if the opportunity had been taken to have someone a bit more different :(

wieselkind showed me the first series about a year ago. I need to start watching it again. It's hard to find series with female characters I find real and engaging. Hell, it's depressing that the one thing for a while was MLP, and even that was ruined by scary fanboys. They actually started sending creepy, homophobic misogynistic letters to the creator whose vision was to have a show with smart, funny female characters with different personalities. *shudder*

People are scary sometimes.
