I thought it was weird well, I was going to put it inspoiler brackets but someone else SPOILED it for others.
Spoiler:
(since the previous spoiler was suddenly wrapped, now mine is) The final scene was heartwrenching, Spoiler:
The BBC was not thrilled with Freema, that's why there's no more Martha and neither was I. I didn't really care much about her. There won't be anyone else like Rose...I loved when the Doctor would proclaim her as "My Rose"...he so loved her and vice versa, I wished Billie would come back for a little while. Rose seemed and felt more freebird than uptight Martha, she wasn't his equal; she wasn't as clever and quick. Nah, she's not Rose. I know. What really bugged me about Martha, it was like the 2nd ep she was in love with him...I'm like ?!?!!? She has NO HISTORY with him!! Rose lived through a regeneration and saved his butt, there was some love there. She really cared for him; he did as well. His pain being ripped apart from her was there when she got sucked to the other 'verse... I hope the next companion is better.

Um, the only details given about the deal with Jack were under spoiler tags, so it's your own fault if you looked. Not a reason to not use spoiler tags.

That was a brilliant season finale. Really. Better than last season's even. and the thing about Jack was just awesome. I mean, never saw it coming, makes sense... more or less and it's just fun. It's a shame to see Martha leave, I liked her being able to kick butt and I liked her strong personality, which was very different from the one Rose had. Not that I didn't like Rose, on the contrary, but it was cool to see someone who didn't either cry or pout all the time.
All in all, it was a brilliant season and I hope they keep on going like this.

No Someone had them out in the open. I dont care, I saw it...... it's not biggie to me. It was in the open when I read it, now it's wrapped. anyways. I'm glad to see Martha go, I didn't like her in the first place. She doesnt fit. There's no chemistry between Martha and the Doctor.

Martha is'nt gone. She's going to be a recurring character appearing in both Doctor Who and Torchwood. There WILL be a new companion that she has to compete with, and ultimately, it forces her to change her approach to The Doctor. Quote:
Really, the character served a major role in her first season, but became a background character in season two, doing nothing until "Army of Ghosts" except making all the little fangirls swoon just by clutching The Doctor's arm. Mickey had better development than her with his "idiot to icon" progression. Martha is a certified doctor, she IS smarter than Rose, and as this finale proved, she pulled herself together and became a legend and inspriation to the populance, saying nothing but a story, she saved The Doctor's life with prayer and inspiring hope, how the hell can you compare that to Rose? She sneezed a few Daleks away and forced a regeneration out of her reckless pursuit of love, Martha saved the universe with one word. and it did'nt cost The Doctor another life. Honestly, when people thrash Martha, there not thinking rationally, just like any typical fangirl, they just want to swoon again at some useless mary sue clutching to The Doctor's shoulder.

I see why people can not love Rose though. I mean, she's smart, she's independent and she's basically a really cool character. The smart-part could be the one that might frighten some people. So Buslady might be thinking very rationally, actually, reacting with antipathy towards someone who'd be superior.
Rose was a slacker, basically a loser in society's eye, and so there was always the pity-element to liking her. Kind of like "Wow, she's such a loser and The Doctor still takes her along for the ride." It's the same model they use for many, many cartoon main characters to make them appear sympathetic. They make them complete losers. And Martha just wasn't a loser, she kicks ass when asskicking's needed. Having that said, I have to say that I like both, Martha and Rose, for what they contributed to the series.

You'd really think I'd be used to this by now, but I clicked into this thread, read, "Rose was a slacker," and took personal offense. THEN realized, oooh THAT Rose.
Anywho, I like both Rose and Martha just fine. Series 1 with Nine and Rose was my first first exposure to Doctor Who. It took me a few episodes to get used to Ten, but I've come to love him. It took me a few episodes to get used to Martha, but I really did like her. And I'm sure we'll be seeing her at least once more. I really was hoping we'd have the same team for two seasons in a row so that I wouldn't have to spend a few episodes getting used to someone. Alas. And hopefully Jack will be happy in the next season of Torchwood so the show can pay more attention to him instead of him going off and being broody all the time.

And here's confirmation of Martha's return and apperances in Torchwood, plus the annoucment of a new companion (possibly Sally Sparrow from "Blink")
While the final episode of Series Three, screened last Saturday , saw The Doctor's companion Martha leave to care for her devastated family, and to break the cycle of unrequited love she feels for The Doctor, the production team has now confirmed that the character is set to make a triumphant return in the fourth series. Freema Agyeman is also set to join the cast of Torchwood, where she will continue to play the character in three new episodes before returning to Doctor Who in the middle of the fourth series. As Doctor Who's Executive Producer and head writer, Russell T Davies notes: "Series three has gained outstanding reviews and Freema has been a huge part of that success, gaining rave notices for her portrayal of Martha. Now we are taking the character of Martha into brand new territory with a starring role in Torchwood". "I can't wait to start filming on Torchwood and the new series of Doctor Who," said Freema. "It's a huge new challenge for me and I'm delighted Russell has decided to expand the character of Martha Jones.'" The new announcement leaves a vacant space in the TARDIS. A new companion for The Doctor, who will join the new series for the entire 13 week run, will be announced shortly. |

Martha in love with him by her 2nd episode! gimme a break! Couldn't stand her. Wreckless pursuit of love?!? WTF is Martha doing? She keeps hoping and pining over the Doctor! She's rediculous! And yes I'm well aware of Martha's occasional appearances. I'm not completely out of it. Duh...I've been at the fandom of DrWHO for 22 years, I do know whats going on. Will this Kylie be a one shot like in the last holiday show or staying on?

Wasn't expecting that, but I think it should work out just fine!! Actually, I think it's a really good move to not introduce another brand new character.

Those spoilers are garbage. "Sapphire Avenged" with Joanna Lumley, yeah, that is SO not winking to British fans..Terrance Dicks?! (He was'nt on the list of COFIRMED WRITERS), fanwank galore like The Brigader and The Autons one after the other?
Jesus H. Christ, you know things are bleak when THE SUN is always more accurate than F*CKING FAN SITES. The BBC confirmed that The Odd would be returning, that Davies will write the season premiere, that Agatha Christy will appear, and the details of what would happen, that's why that crappy site's synopsis for "On Donna" and the second episode are VAUGE, and the rest have no problem spewing bulls*it with non-stop fangasms. And the biggest giveaway is the continued use of that wonderous in-joke with the Axons, they used them for fake spoilers last season.
