if RTD wanted to make a character people could relate to, i'll take him -- a good, decent guy, kind of goofy, tries to do the right thing, in love with someone who doesn't love him back, but strong enough to face up to that in the end, starts off watching the game on telly and goes on to save the world with the skills he taught himself.
WORD! Mickey is the kind of guy who would be the salt of the Earth in any other series, but in this one, he's the punching bag because he's not an adrenaline junkie.
Oh, wait, except that Nine grudgingly gave him props and let Mickey save face when Mickey asked him for help doing so. Whereas Ten, despite having needed Mickey's help and knowing that Mickey had saved the world several times, treats him as some sort of moderately annoying pet. Of Rose's.
