Doctor & Rose

If you insist on bringing back David Tennant and Billie Piper for nostalgia bait—like the BBC is holding your family hostage until you wring every last drop out of your first run—fine. But why, in the name of Rassilon’s bad decisions, must it always be through regeneration nonsense?

You’ve got a perfectly good, prepackaged, emotionally traumatic alt-universe trapped versions of them! Rose and Tentoo are RIGHT THERE.

You’re already knee-deep in pantheon drama and multiverse shenanigans. Canon fell down the stairs several seasons ago. Don’t start pretending you care about continuity now.

And if you’re absolutely determined to give the Doctor a surprise part-human-part-timelord daughter, may I just scream into the void that MIA TYLER EXISTS. She is RIGHT THERE. Tentoo and Rose already did the homework. You don’t need to scribble over the margins in crayon.
