Howling:Amy series 6

I just read Amy will be in series 6. However it dosen't say whether she will be full time companion. Will she do a Martha and only show up for guest appearances. Or will she be there for half the series and then leave. It does look as though it might be a Martha because it still has not been confirmed that she is in the sarah jane adventures with Matt smith which seems to suggest that she will leave then rejoin or meet him at a later point. If Amy is back for thirteen episodes then that will be big because there hasn't been a companion there for two complete seasons in a row since billie piper. If Amy's there to the end of season 6 do you think they will actually have the guts to go through with a romance this time. Before rose didn't admit she loved him until the end. And even then we didn't get what he thought for another two years [though it was obvious] obviously Martha was in love with him but for some totally insane reason he didn't get off with her. There is a limit to how many times you can have it be is he gonna get off with her or not, does he like her. Either I think they should just go through with it and have the Doctor and Amy be a couple and I mean the actual doctor not say the doctor when he has become human or taken over. Or they should just ditch the romance idea all together. I understand why RTD did it, that type of stuff is popular in modern shows like Buffy and Angel and Smallville but if it goes on to long it can actually finish a show because people just get tired of it. I am not saying they should never do a romance idea ever ever in doctor who but they should maybe leave it a while then it will seem more surprising. Lets also not forget it can be great just to have two people that are friends I personally loved the end of time because it was a great dynamic between Bernard Cribbons and David Tennant, also so many people go on about the Avengers, that never actually had a full blown romance between Steed and Ms Peel. Not that I dont like Amy but to be honest I think that it just kinda the same idea as Martha here you've got this fiesty young good looking women who has sort of got a thing for the doctor, it does remind me of the early martha episode when she would hint she fancied him, though I suppose Amy has been more open you can see what I am getting at User:winehousefan, 22:09, May 28 2010 [UTC]


 * I think it's pretty clear that the Doctor doesn't want Amy that way. In fact, he seemed almost repulsed by the idea, as if she were a substitute granddaughter like Vicki (or maybe a fairy goddaughter).


 * Meanwhile, as both Moff and Karen Gillan said in Confidential, Amy wasn't looking for romance at the end of FaS; she was looking for a quick fling, purely physical. And somewhere else, Moff said that you can expect that she'll grow to love the Doctor, but it'll be in a familial way, not a romantic one.


 * Of course if you want a full-blown romance with real hanky-panky in the TARDIS, there's always River, assuming everything she's hinting at is true.


 * Anyway, it's hard to ignore the fact that, for decades now, the Doctor has been picking up primarily attractive (and free-spirited and often scantily-clad) young women. Sure, Vicki and maybe Dodo were substitute grandkids; Ace was sort of a protege; Donna was just a mate. And there have been a few male companions in there. But how do you explain the whole range from Zoe through Sarah Jane to Martha and now Amy?


 * JNT's answer was to just pretend there's nothing odd about his choices at all. RTD's answer was to make it a soap opera. We'll have to wait and see what Moff's answer is, but I don't think it'll be either of those. --Falcotron 11:54, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
