In my opinion, I see her as far too perfect and just a smidgeon sexist. She's nice and all, but that's just the thing, she's too nice. She gets everything right, and the only time I've ever liked her was the episode she off and died in. (I mean, I didn't like her because of the death, I just loved her character in said episode so much more because it was fresh and new and she was so mysterious.) If anyone wanted a textbook definition of Mary-Sue I'd point them to River.
Now I mean this in no offence to anyone. I love Alex Kingston, she's a kind and beautiful person, but I just really dislike River's character and am really happy someone else shares my opinion, I guess.
I agree. I liked her with Tennant but her relationship with Smith just didn't work for me. She just seemed forced upon us. I like Alex Kingston and I think she is great but River never really clicked with me.
