I completely agree on her not fitting in with the series (though I don't think I'd like her much on her own, either, unless they fleshed her out a bit and made her personality less reliant on the men in her life). For me, I think it's that she's too violent and 90's-style "gritty", which doesn't fit into the overall theme of Doctor Who. The Doctor has always been very much about finding clever, non-violent solutions, respecting the rights and dignities of all sentient beings, and acting with responsibility and thoughtfulness regardless of the circumstances. River, on the other hand, is uber gung-ho about violence and thinks about others and their rights with roughly the same depth as a tea saucer.

All true!

I like a bit of stupid action sometimes, and I can kind of see River (in her hypothetical totally-standalone series) starring in a gleefully mindless and silly adventure series, spouting goofy one-liners and battling transparently evil villains warring over a grand treasure or something. If she were in that kind of a series from the start, I would probably be a huge fan. (I would also love if she teamed up with Cynthia Rothrock to beat up space gangsters or something.)

(And oh, jeez, please don't let the new companion be her daughter, as someone on here a week or two ago theorized. D: dnw)
