I'm conflicted on the subject, personally. There are times that I'd like to see the dynamic of the Doctor interacting with a primary male companion, just because it would be a new thing to explore, something that we haven't seen before, and it would say to young boys that they could be companions too, which is a message that I'm not seeing much on modern Who, where, except for Jack, the male companions have been tagalongs to the female companions. At the same time, though, I acknowledge that the show already does have problems with female characters, so by dropping them from the main cast entirely would easily create more, not to mention that, though growing, the list of female characters on sci-fi shows who aren't created and used primarily out of a desire for sex appeal is still on the low side, and seeing more rounded female characters is always a good thing, so... I don't know.

I mean to be honest I'm satisfied by the glimpses you get with Craig or Jack or Mickey or Rory, Craig and Jack I guess being better examples of male companions who interact with the Doctor for reasons beyond a mutual friend/girlfriend. I guess it just never felt to me like there was a lack of deep male friendships on TV, particularly in sci-fi, whereas there IS a lack of strong female characters.

But I wouldn't mind having a male companion unrelated to the female companion tag along for a whole season, sort of like Nine, Rose and Jack in s1. I just wouldn't want it to become only Nine and Jack.

True. To be honest, I have no serious complaints about the current set up (The Doctor and a female companion) that would ever make me stop watching. I just like playing around with different ideas, the what if's. We haven't seen the Doctor with a primary male companion, at least not in modern Who, which is what I'm really familiar with, so that's at least something of the appeal of the idea for me. I know that just because it's something we haven't seen doesn't automatically make it something that we need to see, I'm just saying that I wouldn't mind seeing it if it were to happen.

And, given the precedent, it's probably not likely to happen, since the Doctor's companions usually are female. But it's an interesting scenario to play out, at least for me.

What about a compromise, with a male and female companion who are not romantically involved and who are treated equally by the show, maybe even siblings?

This would be awesome. I don't see why there can't be two "primary" companions.

Yeah I'm sick of that. I've noticed NOTHING but T&A. And heard the way Fanboys talk:
"Oh I'd abduct her and do nasty things." And THEN the disgustig, degrading fanart.

I thought Deanna Troi was T&A, when I watched the ST:TNG Hated her worse then Wesley, actually I didn't mind Wesley. Then ST:VOY I watched it from the start and.... Seven of Nine ewwww I hated her, to me it was series lowest moment bringing her on.

And The things they have Tegan and Peri running around in. But DAMN Amy is no BETTER.

However MOST of the Doctors haven't been Lookers. I'd have to say Three are classically good looking.

What are telling little girls? You can awesome adventures but but you have to STACKED? Depressing.

I'd already bailed on Voyager by the time Seven of Nine was introduced in the original run, but based on reruns I've seen, she was a legitimately good character played by a capable actress. BUT OH THAT OUTFIT.

It's not that Women Must Pretend They Don't Have Boobs, but there was no in-story reason for her not to just start wearing a uniform like the rest. It's not like that catsuit was standard issue Borg apparel, either. Same thing with T'Pol on Enterprise. Ever other Vulcan we saw wore robes, but not her. I wonder why?

I'm not sure I agree with you on the Doctors. I started watching with NuWho, and fell madly in love with Nine. I'd say Five and Ten are very attractive, though not my type, Eight was very much presented as a romantic figure, Eleven has the whole boyish nerdy charm going on, and Four, to me, was strangely sexy. Though yeah, looks aren't nearly so much the end all and be all.

Elven has the weirdest face since Tom Baker, NO EYEBROW and that CHIN!

Look I lust after Doctors Three- Eight and Eleven. With Six being my favorite and I consider him very sexy.

Hell I think '70's porn-Colin Baker is sexy' So I may be touched in the head.

I was just saying what 'normal' non-fans might think.

Fair enough. Even before I became a Who-fan, I tended to have rather strange taste in guys.

Then again Benedict Cumberbatch is considered sexy and is face is pretty weird... so the madness maybe spreading.

It's funny about Seven, watching VOY I was pretty young and not really thinking about anyone sexually. I LOVED Seven. I loved the idea of a Borg becoming human I loved her exploring humanity like Data did but not being in love with it all, voicing her doubts and acting on them, I loved her relationship with the Doctor and with Janeway. I was pretty much watching just for her as a character by the end.

Yeah she wore a catsuit but I never cared or even thought about it. She was just cool, and sometimes funny and awesome and smart.

I think it's silly to dismiss a character because off how they are dressed.

Well I was older then you when I started watching like around nine when I got into ST:NG reruns and a bit older when VOY came out. And to me it was SCREAMINGLY obviously they already had one: "I'm exploring humanity" character in the doctor. Why did they need another and why get rid of Kes?
