Actually she wasn't that bad, it's just we needed something different after Rose and we got more of the same pretty much </3

Martha is so underrated she literally saved the entire world from the master in her own, without the doctor.

She was good in her own right but her problem is that she was a lovesick companion that came right after Rose.

I'd appreciate Martha more if we had a different kind of companion first.

In fact Martha did quite a lot on her own while the doctor was incapable of helping out. Martha is an awesome companion and I think her story is quite inspiring.

Plus she was played by a terribly wooden actress which loses her points.

It's quite telling the most popular episode of series 3 gave her about 30 seconds screen time.

The Rose-free series 2 episode was hated and the Donna centric series 4 episode is one of the most popular.

Martha just isn't worthy to lick their boots.

RTD wrote Martha awfully he even wanted to kill her in Journey's End initally. Apart from the stupid unrequited love story, she grows throughout the series and carries Human Nature/Family of Blood/Last of the Time Lords which I couldn't see Rose and Donna doing in my opinion.

Freema isn't wooden at all just watch all her other stuff (Law and Order) to see that

Not understanding the Blink, Turn Left and Love & Monsters comparison when they're both ends of the DW spectrum and they learnt from the mistakes of L&M on how to do a Doctor-Lite episode properly. It doesn't show that Rose was adored when Jackie was equally liked but she featured heavily.

I mean Midnight is probably the most popular episode of series 4, yet Donna is only in it for 5 seconds - does that mean Donna was hated? no

Ew, I had forgotten that the Peter Kay episode existed and was happy in my ignorant bliss.

Oh she's improved over the years sure. I've never watched Law and Order but I saw her in something else and she was quite good.

But in Doctor who she was ATROCIOUS. she literally couldn't utter a single word without making the audience cringe. Poor David Tennant.

Can't remember the actress name, but Sally Sparrow from blink deserve an honourable mention.

The assistant who never was, but then that position was filled by Freema as Matha

No mention of Clara (Jenna- Louise Coleman)

Jenna seemed quite good in Victoria
