Yes. Yes he WAS. (You're totally write about him never getting over Donna too.)
One of the more frustrating aspects of RTD era Who was that shellacing over darkness and complexity. Because it's still there and it's fairly obvious if you know what you're looking for, but the Pastede On Happiness makes it seem like it's an accident that it's there at all. (And there's certainly enough people who use the Pastede On Happiness as evidence that the darkness and complexity doesn't exist and we're just projecting or whatever.)
HAPPINESS WILL PREVAIL. I mean, that's basically the RTD era in a nutshell. The Shiny Happy exterior that's covering something very dark underneath.
(I don't know, man. I think I'd respect RTD more if he didn't try to cover up all his strengths with spectacle.)
