This is where we talk about how awesome Rory is!
I've really enjoyed his character development and would like to see him stick around--with or without Amy.

Rory is great!
The one wobbly moment, and I'm not counting his habit of getting killed, was when he was shown to have secret dreams of becoming a doctor - that's not really the career path for nurses, and kind of implies that nurses are failed doctors.

I've liked Rory from the get-go. My favorite part about his character arc was watching my SO go from absolutely hating him to begrudgingly enjoying his scenes.

Rory's always been great. Like Mickey Smith but without the suck!

Mickey gets better. I liked his "I'm the tin dog, aren't I?" scene.

I love Rory too - if there's one thing I'm wishing for in the second half of the season it's more Rory/Doctor moments showing them as actual friends in their own right. They spent loads of time as a duo (although sadly, we didn't get to see much of it) in A Good Man Goes To War, so I'm hoping they've bonded a bit and have some real companion-and-Doctor stuff rather than Rory feeling a bit like a companion-of-a-companion.

Mickey gets better. I liked his "I'm the tin dog, aren't I?" scene. Okay, that's probably unfair. I liked Mickey as a character, but disliked Davies' treatment of him--as a comical failure at love who can never match the Doctor. Rory is written as if he has more of a spine.

Poor old Mickey, he deserved better.
Hey, remember when Martha was being promoed as "the first black companion"? I was all like "WTF, Mickey totally counts!" - but no, that would get in the way of the RTD companion-as-unconsumated-shag thing.

I didn't really warm to Rory until after his first or second death. Now I love him so much he's in serious competition with Donna Noble for the position of My Favourite Companion. Arthur Darville really works hard to get the most out of what he's given in the scripts.

I think Rory and Mickey underwent great changes for the better in the series.
