The big spoiler is that the timelords of Gallifrey lost the time war and are all dead. All of them except the Doctor who is apparently newly regenerated.
This puts the Doctor in an odd position, since in all his travels he's never really needed anyone now the weight of years, loneliness and a little disillusionment seem to make him cry out for companionship. His pleading with the Nestene intelligence in the opening episode reveals this a little (I couldn't save any of them!)
Rose is very curious and empathetic to his problems, and maybe a little in love with him which is interesting.
She's also not afraid to get physical and she manages to keep her head better than almost every companion except maybe Ace or Leela.
Her Mom and boyfriend have small parts right now, but it looks like they are going to become full fledged companions too.
Anyone else have any thoughts on the Whopisodes?

I like that Rose can call her mom no matter where/when she is. If the make Rose into an angsty traveler experiencing culture shock and whining to go home, the show will die.

I want tech like that.
But imagine the Cell phone bill.

I like the Rose is blonde and my age, because I get serious MarySue-ness out of it. Also, yeah, she's got a good head on her shoulders. I miss Captain Jack, though. I had JUST started to like him, and was even enjoying the boy-snogging!

Well he's getting his own show in the Whoverse so its not so bad.
Torchwood.
But your really getting ahead of reasonable spoilers for the American new Who viewers. Maybe we should limit the spoilers to the American Season :D
Still I cant wait for the Sarah Jane and K9 episodes :D
They might get their own shows too. :D
