Five Saddest Losses On The Rebooted Doctor Who Series

Star Trek and Doctor Who are two of the longest running TV series of all time...
Doctor Who... As far as a Science Fiction show goes, this show has three things that I would definitely say is definitely similar to that of, 'Star Trek'... That being the fact that both shows have been entertaining audiences since the 60s, ('Star Trek' being an American science fiction show that started airing in 1966, and Doctor Who being a British science fiction show that started airing in 1963.)

Besides having both had their starts in the 60s, both of these shows also had long hiatuses, (Doctor Who had it's hiatus really from the time of the TV movie in 1996, until the new TV series in 2005 (The reason that I say this like this, is because I know that the Doctor showed up in other media during this time, just not on his series,) as for Star Trek... Well Star Trek had it's hiatus after the bomb of, 'Enterprise', and the horrible nature of Star Trek: Nemesis (2002)!)

The last thing that I thought that I would mention here that they have in common is the fact that both have been rebooted in the new millennium (Doctor Who was rebooted in 2005, and Star Trek was rebooted in 2009!)

Star Trek & Doctor Who... Two amazing shows/movies that maintained themselves quite well!

With that said, and with the reboot about to hit it's first decade, I thought that you guys might enjoy these: 'Five Saddest Losses On The Rebooted Doctor Who Series'... Not the most uplifting... But still some great moments in the show:

At number 5: Donna Noble's departure from the Doctor's life:

Donna Noble as she is discovering that she is going to have to leave the Doctor.
Let's be honest here guys, as a companion, Donna Noble (Played by: Catherine Tate) may not have been everyone's favorite... I know that for me, her entrance was definitely a swing and a miss, and she may have been one of the shortest series regular companions of the series, but she did make a difference... And in the end, her departure was sad... If anything thanks in large part to the work of the amazing talent that played Donna, her family, and of course the work of: David Tennant (He played the Tenth Doctor.)

At number 4: The Doctor looses his daughter:

Tenth Doctor, Donna Noble & The Doctor's recently created, 'Jenny.'
Unfortunately the character of, 'Jenny' (Played by: Georgia Moffett) never had the chance to really turn in to something... This is a shame, because I suspect if she had the chance, that she may have turned in to something that could have been a lot of fun... But well she had a lot of good moments in the episode she was in, and well, her ending was brilliantly created thanks to the work of the, 'Tenth Doctor' (played by: David Tennant'), and Georgia Moffett, and the strong emotions that they did a great job of bringing to the moment!

At number 3: The Tenth Doctor starting his regeneration.

The start of the Tenth Doctor's regeneration.
If you're like me, then one of the things that you liked about the earlier years of Doctor Who, was when David Tennant was playing, 'The Doctor'... Don't get me wrong, both Christopher Eccleston (Thor: The Dark World) and Matt Smith (Lost River), but David Tennant really brought to the world of, 'Doctor Who', a unique time, when the show just rocked, with a network of amazing story lines that all ultimately converged on to the main story line... And As for his talent... David Tennant brought to the role a character that you really felt for in worst of times, rooted for in the darkest of times, and enjoyed in the best... And lets be honest, the chemistry between The Doctor, and Rose Tyler's mother is just hilarious!

At number 2: Rory & Amy's depature:

The Doctor, Amy & Rory on the last day they are together...
Now this one was a tough one to decide,  the truth is, is it was a tough one between this one and what came up for number 1... I mean the show runners did a truly awesome job in not just making The Doctor, Amy (Played by: Karen Gillan) & Rory (Played by: Arthur Darvill) friends, but they made them family... So when Amy & Rory were written out of the show, it was just as sad as in the same way when the Tenth Doctor lost Rose (Played by: Billie Piper) to the other dimension...

And speaking of number 1: Rose first getting trapped in the alternate universe.

Rose realizing she is trapped in an alternate dimension with out her Doctor...
Rose Tyler [Played by: Billie Piper)... As far as actors and characters go, Rose Tyler and Billie Piper are to Doctor Who, what Spock and Leonard Nimoy (Invasion Of The Body Snatchers) are to Star Trek...

I know that may seem like a weird comparison, so let me explain... As the original series of Star Trek goes, and to Trekkies in general, William Shatner (Kingdom Of The Spiders) was one of the biggest characters/Actors in Star Trek... And still is! Well if William Shatner/Captain Kirk is one of the biggest leads in Star Trek history, then Leonard Nimoy/Spock, as the character/actor who plays Kirk's friend, maybe one of the biggest sidekicks of all time...

Well in that vein, Rose Tyler as the Doctor's companion, is still considered to be one of the best companions that the Doctor ever had, and with that, has made Rose Tyler one of the most famous actresses in, 'Who' history... And the last episode that Rose Tyler as a series regular was not just played brilliantly by both David Tennant and Billie Piper, but was also sad for the fans of the character and the actress as well!
