I did not care about Rose at all after the Mid-Season Cybermen two parter in series two. Her arc was completely played out and just tedious after that, especially all the comebacks. Can't say I cared much about the people in Love&Monsters or Fear Her at all either.

Now I'll agree Moffat does tend to rely a little bit too much on telling (my problem with the Christmas show was too much narration and montaging, not enough action), but I can't say he is bad at making me feel about the characters. In fact I think he is even better about making me care about the bit players than RTD ever was. RTD was far too partial to using bit characters as cannon fodder and expecting me to care about them just because he gave them some perfunctory lines to speak.

Funny you should mention Rose, because I actually did not care much for her. (Or her relationship with the Doctor for that matter.)

I think we'll have to agree to disagree which goes hand in hand with what I said about words like 'good' and 'bad' being subjective.

Sometimes it's very hard to pinpoint why something does or doesn't work for you, the general you. I've learned to cherry pick, gloss over the bits I don't like and count my blessings when something pushes most of my buttons. (And not just when it comes to DW.)
