And Tennant has a bunch of other bad Christmas episodes. Runaway Bride made Donna Noble, a likeable character, be horribly annoying. The enemy was somewhat interesting, but most of the episode was very bad. Christmas Invasion was pretty good, but I find that both Christmas Carol and Doctor, Widow and Wardrobe were better, leave alone Snowmen.

I mean, Davies can write very good stuff, as you can see in the specials. Waters of Mars and Planet of the Dead are pretty good, and End of Time is  amazing. But Next Doctor is arguably the worst serial in history. Runaway bride was fun. -_-

Right, I forgot about christmas Carol, that was good.

Doctor, Widow, Wardrobe was TERRIBLE.

See, the thing is, Smith has the better companions and the better scripter. Think about it; Rose was idioitic, Martha was ok, and Donna was a bit of a joke. Amy and Rory? Craig? The best companions in the new series, easily. And Davies has his bright sparks, but Moffat is consistently brilliant- think about Blink, arguably one of Tennant's best. But just in the portrayal of the Doctor- Tennant wins. none ov them compare to Tom Baker, old school i know but still the best.
