ok -- first, I had never seen Rose. Not only did I miss it the first time 'round, I managed to not realize I had missed it. the Garbage Can with Mickey was CLASSIC and it explains a LOT of his reaction to the whole "alien" question later. And the initial interaction 'tween Jackie and the Dr. make a lot of later scenes make a lot more sense as well.
Have to agree with oldmangrumpus on the Mickey question -- his reaction was probably more normal -- though most of use would like to think we'd react like Rose did, the vast majority of the world would react, I think, far more like Mickey did.
I also note that I like Eccleston even more this time than I did the first go 'round on CBC. I liked him well enough -- but he really does grow on you. Mind you, he's not John Pertwee... (heh heh)
Tradtion says most folks like the doctor they saw first best -- so given that, Eccleston is in pretty good company with the Dr's I like right after Pertwee :>.
I really like the interactions between Rose and the Dr. I love how he lightly banters/spars with her -- and how she responds in kind. It's all very well put together.
I'm getting very excited about Season 2 (or is it 28?) with Tenant -- hope he stays for a good long time as well!
