    I thought it was a good introduction to Donna.  It gave more than 
adequate background to say how Donna got to be who she is, set up the 
relationship dynamic for Donna and The Doctor, and had some nice alien 
bits as well.

   We had bad guy aliens, cute baby aliens, and amusing bits of crowd
chaos.

   And then we had heart warming family mush and an enigmatic Rose 
appearance to end it all.

   So yeah, the endless Donna and the Doctor missing each other was 
tiresome, but it had a lot of other stuff going for it.
