I do like River a lot; the hate she generates from some baffles me to bits.

Hm. I was actually hoping that River would leave for good when the Ponds leave for good… I’m not a big fan of River Song to be honest. I don’t hate her, not at all, I just prefer the episodes without her.

I have mixed feelings about River Song. The 10th Doctor met her for the first time as she met him for the last, knowing everything about him including his real name.

That was interesting and I thought the unfolding of her story over future series would be to, but I’m not so sure now. It’s more complicated than it appeared it was when it started out.

The Doctor isn’t meeting River in reverse order, but is actually meeting her at different points in both their timelines.

He’s met her when she died in Series 4, when she was a baby in Series 6, and everything in between in Series 5, 6 and 7 and perhaps beyond, before finally saying goodbye to her before she goes to the library.

Like everything Steven Moffat, it’s complicated and according to him, that apparently makes me “fairly stupid”.

Having said that, I don’t mind the character herself and there’s something quite attractive about her, despite her being old enough to be my mum, lol

I don’t really mind that River Song is coming back, it makes sense when her parents are about to leave the show, but I just hope the timeline from her Birth to the Library becomes a bit clearer as time goes on.

I like River’s character, and I’m glad the Doctor has fallen in love with her and not a companion. However, I think that she should leave when Amy and Rory leave, and give the show a fresh start with the new companion.

I am so glad she will be back. I love her character and it would by also strange without her. She is the perfect wife for Doctor.

I liked River until the revelation that somehow she is Amy’s child! It is the most stupid solution to the mystery ever. I wish SM would get out of this rut he has dragged Doctor Who into!

Like JC I have mixed feelings for River. She can be so irritating at times when she teases us otherwise tbh I really like her character even her being Amy’s child because personality wise they are alike in how they tease the Doctor which is pretty funny. I loved River’s performance atop the pyramid in TWORS absolutely superb. Cannot wait for her return in series 7 :)

I don’t really like river only because you know shell
Get out alive because we already know when she
Dies so it doesn’t give that kick saying omg she
Actually might die this time but im not saying that I hate her
:)

I find SM answer to the River farcical! Apparently and this would have to be a huge stretch of the imagination, Rory and Amy engaged in activities, 2 humans, which resulted in a Time Lord hybrid. I am still waiting for the first mile high baby with wings or the first cruise baby with gills…. Now where did I put my copy of Farce Magazine?

@Steve
I have to admit Steve, it doesn’t make sense that concieving children in the Time Vortex gives them biological traits of the Time Lords.
