    Tbh I wanted a male companion so we would avoid the whole doctor companion love thing, but no one ever listens to me.

    I will beat money on the time that we get a male companion is when we get a female doctor just to screw with me.

    There is a significantly greater than nil chance of that happening.

    Rory was a seriously underrated character, really enjoyed his time on the show... You know, once I got over the jealousy

    Agreed! Although as I gave up after season one of Legends I'll have to take your word on the last one.

    Friend of mine said the same thing, I might have to look into it eventually. Sadly, as Netflix U.K. is just awful, we don't get Arrow/Flash/Legends over here :'(

    as vegas said, legends s2 is way better, hawk twins are gone, theres a colossus clone who geeks out with ray, and rip hunter is missing for the first half of it so sarah is now the leader of the team

    Eh, it's cool. I have... Other ways... of seeing it. I've just got a lot to watch, so Legends is low on my priority list.

    He was a side companion with Amy. He would have never been there without Amy.

    And yeah, Jack not being considered a companion is really odd. This whole article feels like nothing but PR about "being progressive", while it's already what the show has been doing for years, especially if you consider spin-offs with Torchwood and Class. Both River and Clara (both as Clara and Oswin) were also openly bisexual.
    If it is not a big deal, then why are they trying to? Just have her mentioning that she has a girlfriend in a random episode. There you go, it is not hard

    To be fair, that could be EXACTLY what they do. People are assuming that her mentioning it in her second line will be her explicitly saying "Hi, I'm Bill Potts, I'm a lesbian, yup, love the ladies I do... LOVE em! Bill "The Lesbian" Potts, that's what they call me at the lesbian bars that I go to... Because I'm a lesbian."

    But there's EVERY chance that it'll just be that when they meet the Doctor says "Why are you in such a rush then?" and her reply is "I'm late, I was meant to meet my girlfriend ten minutes ago!"

    Boom, second line of dialog and her sexuality is confirmed... But it's not a huge thing, and as long as it doesn't become a big plot point or anything, further down the line, *shrug* I'd say that's a pretty solid way of handling the whole thing.

    I honestly feel like they should not mention it in the first episode. Save that for future episodes, if it is not a big deal, they don't have to show it to us in the first episode. If it is not a big deal to her character, do we really need it in the first episode?

    Can't really disagree with you on that... Unless, this is in the only time that she mentions her home life and for the rest of the season they're too busy having adventures and being awesome to care what's going on back on earth.

    That'd be cool.

    I actually disagree little with you there. I love how Doctor Who screws up his companions lives. Like Donna/Amy/Rose it showed a big impairment on their life. With Clara we never got to see that. I want to see how it screws with their life. Like Rose coming back and she hasn't come back in like a year with her mother thinking she is gone/dead. Those make the show seem to have some weight, and I feel like it has lost it.

    We had a whole series of Clara and Danny and how it screwed everything up . That was one of the reasons season 9 was so bad, there was WAY too much Clara/Danny nonsense.
