The Idiot's Lantern

Oh, well, ah...I didn't dislike it, persay, but it wasn't particularly great, no.

( Review Type List Thing )

And so we're well over halfway through the series. How is that possible? It was just starting yesterday, was it not?

[Poll #737580]

Skience Results!

So, after a lovely big nice number of responses, I now present LISTS! Lists of the hotness of companions!

( Top Ten of HOTNESS! )

( Top Ten Women of HOTNESS! )

( Top Ten Men of HOTNESS! )

( Top Ten Apocrypha of HOTNESS! )

( Bottom Ten of HOTNESS! )

The poll can be found for perusal here.

So, some random commentary:

• Jack/Romana II is now the hottest pairing in DW fandom. It should be written immediately, yes.
  
• Why was Adric not in the bottom ten, why?
  
• Too many people voted for K-9. Far too many people.
  
• Go Jamie! Dude! He got one teeny wee mention in the New Series and hasn't had the same exposure in fandom as Romana and yet he still gets to fourth place despite his character being forty years old and teh burnings. Go him! Yays!
  
• The rest in the Top 5 a bit more expected. Though Rose being so low, p'haps a bit surprising, maybe?
  
• Ace, though, what? What is that about? I do not understand. EXPLAIN. Thank you.
  
• Apocrypha people do badly, yes, and the more stories a character has burned, the worse they seem to have done, sort of. Ben & Polly fer instance are Quite Ignored despite being decent characters and rather pretty. Also Steven, Steven is great despite being Peter Purves.
  
• Sara Kingdom is love, and is nice that despite three quarters of her single story being burned and that one story being forty-two years old, she still gets quite a respectable score. This makes me happy.
  

In conclusion, SKIENCE!
