Nice review, I think I agree with you on most points, but particularly on the bits about how Amy has such an overblown view of her own importance. Is this due to an overactive fantasy life? Is it masking insecurities? She seemed pretty sure when she answered the Dream Lord that yes, she's the person the Doctor confides everything in. Absolutely insane! I mean, not even Donna, who he asserted was his best friend, not even she would presume to know everything about him! I'm becoming more and more frustrated with Amy. Too many things don't make sense and I can't buy into a theory that the sketchiness of her character is part of the larger story arc. As someone else, somewhere, pointed out: the episodes need to be able to stand alone. We can't become emotionally invested in her if we have to wait till the end of the season to understand what she's all about.
