(Anonymous) 2012-12-27 02:08 am (UTC)(link)I agree with this, but it's also the reason Ten frustrated me: he had so many opportunities to change his behavior and way of thinking, and never did. If he had grown and stopped taking himself so seriously before he regenerated, I'd think his character arc was the best arc of all the Doctors. But it didn't. He never grew. He didn't change his actions. He just got sadder and angrier and more self-loathing, and clung to his self-importance and arrogance right until his regeneration.
And maybe there's some literary tragic merit to that approach, but in a cracky show with a 50-year legacy about a whacky dickish guy who wears ridiculous clothes and travels around in a police box with pretty young women and is kind of completely fucking awesome, it just made me feel sad and frustrated and cheated.

Looking back, I think he was the valley to Nine's peak. Nine grew out of all his anger and sadness when he found Rose. Ten went the opposite way when he lost her. It's actually kind of interesting.
