I loved this year's series! Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) added a new element to the series that we really haven't seen before. She's just a mate of the Doctor's and she's really human. Everything she does she has the most natural reaction to, which is great in a crazy show like this one. All the episodes continued to get better. Just when you think they can't do anything better, they bring in episodes like "Silence in the Library" and "Forest of the Dead", probably some of the best ever. The series finale was incredible. The Doctor's TARDIS was chucked full of his companions and it made for one of the best series finales ever. I loved this year and would definitely recommend it!
What's great about it: Great new stories, new companion, and the return of Rose and many other old friends
What's not so great: Everything always has to end sadly for the Doctor

I was unsure what to expect from this season of "Doctor Who" because Rose isn't around anymore, but I was pleasantly surprised with what I watched. Although I'm still not a big fan of Martha Jones, Freema Ayeman deserves credit, as following up to Rose Tyler and season two is a bit hard to do. Episodes eight and nine, 'Human Nature' and 'The Family of Blood' were certainly favourites of mine (I watched them over about six times!), because the Doctor was doing things that weren't really, well, Doctor-ish. 'Blink' was awesome, but I found it a little wacky, maybe even disturbing. The new Doctor finally met up again with Jack Harkness (who shamelessly flirted with both Martha and blue alien) and it was a real treat to see this 3-parter. John Simm was humourous as 'The Master', a pretty strange (maybe even a little crazy), Time Lord. Over all, this was a pretty good season, but I still miss Rose.
What's great about it: The original episodes, the comedy mixed with peril, and of course, the Doctor
