I think that's one of the things that really made me love the Doctor. Not because he saves the day every time, but you see how many people grew to become better because of him. He encouraged people to believe in themselves and what they could do, and make the best of it. Even Donna, who had to lose her memories, was in a better situation than she had previously been. Almost all the characters ended up using the experience with the Doctor to further their own growth.

Heck, The Stolen Earth and Journey's End were over-the-top and melodramatic, but I didn't care because we got to see everybody ever being awesome on screen at the same time.

IA, both Amy and Rory are so... disconnected. I hardly even feel like they come from a specific time period, or a specific place. There are no consequences to them vanishing, which is something I really loved about the previous seasons. It's funny, because until you pointed it out, I hardly realized how much we know about the previous companions. But it's true, they're really people to me. I think that's why they embody the Companion fantasy so well - they started out as just your everyday people, and then everything changed. With Amy, I felt like she had... idk, a certain glamour from the beginning. She wasn't a "regular" person.
Also, I liked how the aliens eventually affected the rest of the world, in the previous seasons.

I think it's more that Moffat isn't quite managing character development, not that he's not trying. Or at least, not managing to convince us (since other people obviously don't have this discontinuity problem with the current season).

I think I liked Blink because the concept was pretty cool, I thought the suspense was well done, and I tended to like the episodes in which the Doctor doesn't play such a big role. I think because those episodes fleshed out the world for me, showing how people who aren't constantly involved with the Doctor can be influenced by him swooping in and out of their lives.
"The Girl in the Fireplace" was pretty what, I agree. I mean, the concept of random bits of France showing up in that spaceship was neat, but the development was kind of meh. "Silence in the Library" and "Forest of the Dead" stand out more in my memory as episodes I'm vastly ambivalent about. On one hand... they were cool. On the other hand...I didn't like the resolution one bit.
