The Best Companion? Part Two

Okay. So I didn’t finish who the best companion was on my previous post. The post was getting a little long, so I cut it short. Here's the rest. I hope you enjoy, and again DON'T read the post if you are NOT CAUGHT UP on the new seasons and episodes so far.
(Here's the list of all the companions again if you missed it in my last post.)

Don't say I didn't warn you. SPOILERS! I LOVE THEM!

Alright let's go!


  •  Martha Jones was only with The Doctor a short time. However she could easily be viewed as the best companion. Has anyone ever considered she is the only to actually say NO to traveling with him after a few adventures? Clara came close to not traveling with The Doctor anymore in season eight, but never quite made it. Martha is a great gal that balances The Doctor out really well while also saving his life a couple of times. In my opinion, she should have stayed on the show longer.

  •  Jack Harkness. Where to begin with Jack Harkness. Jack Harkness, in my opinion, is not a very good companion. He is one of the main companions, and is in touch with The Doctor his whole life (until his death as The Face Of Boe). However he is out outgoing and doesn't follow The Doctor's orders even when they are necessary. He is a good character and contributed a lot to Doctor Who though.

  •  Amy Pond knew The Doctor her whole life. He showed up at her doorstep when she was a little girl, and she knew and spent time with The Doctor until she died of old age having Weeping Angels feeding off of her energy. Amy in my opinion relied on The Doctor her whole life. She didn't really do anything much on her own. However Amy Pond was a good companion by sticking to The Doctor's side and being supportive. She's also a good companion because she turned out to be The Doctor's parents in law which was a surprise to a lot of people.

  •  Clara Oswald is The Doctor's current companion. She is one of the few that went through one of The Doctor’s regenerations. When you think about it, not many of the companions don’t get to know The Doctor as more than one person. Clara was one of these, Rose was another. This could show that Clara is one of the best companions, but the fact that she has been saving him his whole life could be another. Clara was the one companion that scattered her timeline to save The Doctor, and that is why she kept reappearing in so many different scenarios.

There are a lot of different companions. They differ in personality, ability, and contributions to the show. Every companion contributes something to Doctor Who, and it is impossible to say that one is the best over the others.

Overall, The Doctor has had many great companions that were amazing in the show. Some should have stayed on longer, but they were all pretty good companions. 

I hope you liked these posts, and please suggest other things I could post on in the future!

    1. Martha is not my favorite, however she did come off as a good companion.
