AYRT. I guess I'll address this carefully.

.05mm deep: I don't know if I agree with that.

Feisty: Well...I mean...I would actually assign that trait to both Rose and Donna. It's just kind of a quality New Who companions have. Only Martha and Rory, in my mind, lack this trait overtly.

Move the plot: I'm not sure about this. Moffat writes his stories to center around an important character/companion. He's also really fond of huge series-spanning story arcs. RTD liked that too, but you only got name drops every so often in episodes until the finale aired, and then the finale probably focused on them, i.e. Bad Wolf and the Doctor-Donna.

But it's true, Clara exists to be the Impossible Girl. Literally and figuratively. I'm hoping she can do something else in S8, but I do strongly disagree that Amy or River or Rory only moved the plot forward. The plot was meant to also push their characters.

And I'm surprised that you think Moffat has no plot. He doesn't have very coherent plots, but they're definitely plot-heavy.

Dialogue: I disagree. Moffat definitely LOVES 'clever' dialogue, I think River, Amy, and other major female characters of Moffat's era don't sound identical or interchangeable...but I do think Clara sounds a lot like Amy.

Jenny and Vastra: They have the same prominence and plot relevance that Jack Harkness did. You're right, they're not thoroughly developed and characters meant to stand on their own, but they have personalities, wants, desires, and are distinct from everyone else.

I do think that Clara is basically Amy 2.0 without any of the character flaws. Like...I can't think of a single character flaw Clara has. At most, Clara is more well-behaved than Amy.

Fiesty started long before Nu-Who. Apart from Mel (who we all try to forget) every female companion since Tegan have had fiesty as their primary character trait (Mel had "cardboard" as hers). And a lot of the other companions had the "fiesty" card too. Anyone remember Leela? A fiesty savage in a chamois leather leotard. She was actually kinda cool.

Late, but:

Yeah, I think I said that somewhere in there or in another reply. Most companions have that character trait, just as most of them are brave, kind, heroic, intelligent, etc. In terms of companions, these traits aren't enough to distinguish a real personality.
