Lol, I was watching Reset/Dead Man Walking the other day. It's funny, but I remember liking Martha when she first showed up, and now I watch her in these episodes and again in uh...hell. Utopia. And I'm just like "...god, you are a terrible doctor."
Someone: *dead for 5 seconds* Martha: *barely touches person at all, does not make any attempts at stopping bleeding or doing cpr* "No pulse. HE'S DEAD."
Yeah, I found that when I was rewatching them, actually. It's like making out she's better than Owen. SOMEHOW. Despite her lack of experience compared to him and him supposed to being awesome. Which would be okay, except... They don't really show it, except through one little bit of snarky banter. And even that was sort of iffy in actually showing anything.
Whoniverse canon is horribly senseless sometimes. Maybe Martha secretly doesn't care about Jack/Owen/anyone else she's done that for? and just likes going "HE'S DEAD".
Right? Oh, Martha. Also, she was engaged to that Tom Milligan dude from last of the time lords, but then she ended up marrying Mickey? Nice.
I do love her reactions whenever someone comes back to life in front of her. All "OH MY GOD *flaaaaaail*". It made one of my friends go "...oh. Is that why the doctor had to get you a job?"
OH, I'm sure they do based on the end of Pandorica Opens vs the begining of Big Bang. XD
Right now, since I'm alone and all, I'm gorging myself on horror movies because I like them and Ty doesn't nearly as much. Currently deciding between Wishmaster and Pumpkinhead II.

Or maybe the writers just like drama. WHO KNOWS.

One has the benefit of being the better, as it's the original, but two has the great 'get out of prison' wish. :|a
