Doctor Who

Which, again, makes the character trait pointless.
--- Quote from: LookingIn on 10 Dec 2013, 17:18 ---She appeared in a medical capacity during the next series and in Torchwood, so the whole "the doctor who didn't practice medicine" thing is pure garbage because she did.

Torchwood is a different series even if it's set in the same universe, that doesn't just give them a pass. Mork from Happy Days was a real character rather than a dream sequence in Mork and Mindy, that doesn't make him a well-written character in Happy Days.
Barmymoo:
Being a doctor was simply a vehicle for explaining her presence in the hospital when they first met. If she'd been a patient she wouldn't have been able to go travelling; if she'd been a relative/friend she'd probably not have felt free to go travelling.
Thrillho:
All of this only makes sense if you consider the circumstances set in stone*. The Doctor could've met a relative of hers too and the relative could've been all 'yeah sure go with The Doctor it's an amazing adventure!'
*edit: rather than this being a show that someone wrote.
blacksinow:
I "like" the idea of the show, but I also feel that it is a tad bit over rated. My favorite episodes had more to do with traveling to other worlds, then merely time travelling. Which is why Gridlock is perhaps my most favorite. Not to say it isn't a good series, but I think alot of people give it too much hype.
ev4n:
I think even the staunchest proponents of the show will concede there are some pretty bad episodes, and that the show spends some time in the cheesy SF realm.
