What!? How can you hate River Song? You're dead inside...and dead to me. And all that jazz... I love that character and that actress. I'm happy that we will see more of her in the future. As a matter of fact, I think it would be a great dynamic if she replaced Amy Pond as the Doctor's regular companion.
