It's not that I don't like it - and I confess I enjoyed it more this time around. I agree with everything you say, and I can completely understand why Reinette captivated the Doctor, way more than I can understand why he would feel that way about Rose. Thing is though, all those things are things I can understand, rather than feel, if that makes any sense? The only analogy I can find at the moment is the fact that I can analyse a piece of music, take it to bits, see how it works and find it fascinating - but I can listen to it and I just don't feel it in my gut, you know?
And on the subject of music, I've become more and more impressed with Murray Gold over the years and I'm really pleased he's signed on for the next series.
Rose and Mickey work really well together here - although at the end of School Reunion she wasn't at all happy at the idea of his travelling with her and the Doctor.
