Top 10 Reasons Why Rose Tyler is the Doctor's Best Companion EVAR!


...what's that? Oh, right. I know, it's Saturday and you're expecting the final part of "The Mirror World"? well, it's coming. After it, we'll have something... new. Still Doctor Who, but new. More on that later, though...

Instead, right here on this lovely April the first, I want to instead celebrate my favorite show of all time by talking to you about your favorite companion and mine, as well as the absolute best companion in the entire sixty year history of Doctor Who. Honestly, you already know who I'm talking about from just that sentence, not even talking about the title of this post!

Really, who couldn't like this person who is most definitely not a gigantic dumpster fire of psychopathic behavior, derangement, and failure? Certainly not I, not I. Really, it's hard to pin down it down to just ten moments that signify that Rose Tyler is the best companion that the Doctor has or ever will have in the history of the show, but I think I've managed to get it down to just ten. Blasphemous as it is to put our goddess, Saint Rose of Tyler, to a list in just the mere double digits! So, without further adieu...

What If... the Doctor remained Time Lord Victorious? (FINALE)


Finally, the journey comes to an end.

Last time, geez, we had a lot going on! Didn't we? Doctors and Masters generating, the Great Intelligence and the Matrix collapsing, and finally the Key to Reality was now released and ready to be used.

The fate of the omniverse lies in the hands of... the Time Lord Victorious!

Let's see how it ends!

From MadCap's Couch - Doctor Who: "The Time of Angels"

Why did you get the Angel's Big Brother audition tape?

Alright, we come to it at last. Moffat's re-introduction of the character of River Song and, for good and ill, all that would mean through most of the Matt Smith era and a bit of a denouement near the end of Peter Capaldi's run. River is a character that I have complicated, but mostly positive feelings about. I'll get into the specifics of why when we hit A Good Man Goes To War, which I feel is where the conversation is best slated for given the content of said episode. For now, let's get into Time of the Angels, part one of our first two-parter in Series 5.

From MadCap's Couch - Doctor Who: "Victory of the Daleks"

"Haven't you been here before already?"
"And I'm gonna be here a surprisingly high amount of times after, too."

Single most stupidly awesome thing in a Doctor Who episode coming in just a few paragraphs.

Just you wait!

Believe me, if you don't know what happens in this episode it will very likely blow your mind.

And I'm not even kidding!

...mostly.

From MadCap's Couch - Doctor Who: "The Beast Below"

"Hey, have I got something in my teeth?"

So, remember how I last time that I was talking up Moffat's era?

Yeah... here's where I have to give him a firm "Nah."

Let me elaborate.

From MadCap's Couch - Doctor Who: "The Eleventh Hour"


See? I told you. Just a couple of weeks.

And it seems not a moment too soon, as we are in the thick of the Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary! That's right, this show has existed for 60 years coming up in November in this, the year 2023! Needless to say, with it being my favorite TV show of all time, you know I have to celebrate! In fact, I've already started by penning Chalybe Panacea, a story in which the Ninth Doctor teams up with former companion Nyssa in order to save the universe from the 1980s Cybermen, and more stories will be following on from that. However, now that we've finally gotten Supernatural out of the way with Season 3, I think it's time to sink our teeth back into the journeys of a madman with a box.

So, with that said, let's get started!
