I actually like Martha - I found her a bit stronger and more mature after Rose (although I liked Rose tons), especially in the part she has in season 4. And in Torchwood. I don't remember her voice being shrill, although I guess different perceptions for different people. I've seen your criticisms used more for Rose, though, which I think is unfair towards the general Rose character, apart from maybe one or two parts on episodes.
Season 3's probably my favorite - with "The Family of Blood," "Blink," and all of the season finale save for the crazy climax/resolution.
She got better towards the end of the season, I admit, and I think a lot of it was the writing in the beginning for her character. I liked Rose a lot, though, so maybe I'm biased.
Oh gosh, "Blink" was FANTASTIC, one of my favorite episodes. I know how you feel about the end of the finale, it was a bit of a cop out, but oh god I cried SO HARD for The Doctor when they killed The Master...): poor lonely Doctor. Now he's really the last one. Oh but I loved the Jack-Face of Bo moment too, although that was even a little sad, because of what happened in "Gridlock". ):
Anyway, I watched ep 1 of season 4 and I have to say, I knd of love Donna. She's so sassy ("You want to MATE?!")! And I like that they're friends and not struggling with some awkward love situation. Also: wtf at the Rose re-appearance? I can't wait to watch more. I've been watching episodes like no other!!
hee, don't worry - Rose is fantastic and I always want to defend her against the haters. But a lot of the Martha haters didn't like her just because she wasn't Rose, which means that people who disliked Martha for more valid reasons would just get lumped in that category.
THE MASTER!!!!!
hee the face of Bo moment.
I also like that Martha realistically moves on past the Doctor as a romantic interest.
