He doesn't do anything?

[(Anonymous)]

He's a bystander in most of his run. It is crap.

[(Anonymous)]

It's a wild exaggeration to say that happens in every episode of S1. I don't think he's a bystander in the two-parters from that season, or in The Long Game. And I don't think it's bad Doctor Who to have the companion be the one to save the day instead of the Doctor, which is the case in several other of the episodes (Rose, Dalek, and then Father's Day is basically a story about her even tho she doesn't technically save the day).

It feels like this complaint really just comes down to Unquiet Dead and Boom Town. Which, like, I don't like those either, but if we called every Doctor Who season with a couple bad episodes unwatchable crap, there wouldn't be a lot of Who left around.

In The Long Game it is even worse, he isn't even rescued by SuperRose. He has to be rescued by random redshirt reporter. That is one of the worst examples of all.

[(Anonymous)]

But the reporter only knows what to do because the Doctor tells her. He gives her the idea. It's his plan. Ergo, he is the one who saves the day, by getting the random reporter to go do the thing.

I'm sorry your super duper power fantasy Doctor who is invincible 5ever but also super fuckable (the Most Important Part) isn't what most people want. People only liked Ten because they want to fuck Tennant.

No, 10 is a good Doctor. All of the Doctors in the new series have been pretty good, sometimes the writing has been bad but the Doctors have never been the problem.

And also, describing 10 as a power fantasy is sort of... fundamentally at odds with what actually happened with his character on screen.
