Well I like Rory.  He plays a good everyman character but yeah, he's basically a repeat of Mickey (who I also liked).  I didn't really care for Rose (bratty), though she had her moments.  Both Donna and Amy are sassy and headstrong, which is fine with me.  Definately like River.

I liked the storyline with the parallel worlds.  I like the girl in the fireplace.  The Astronaut line was fine, though I found some of the individual stories to be kinda weak.  But, you know, it's still Doctor Who. :)  Really liked the "angels" stories.  I like the concept of "the silence".
