I feel that the issue has been more the (IMHO) low quality of the storylines and scripts rather than the actors and actresses themselves.
I grew to like the Doctor more than I did at first and I enjoy the diversity of the companions. The stories have been so weak, though... not really that exciting. It's unfortunate as they have clearly had far more money spent on them than the older series - some of the effects are pretty good - but the plots and conversations have been so uninteresting. This is a huge shame as it can reflect upon the people themselves.
I really hope that the next series (sometime next year, I believe?) is a return to form.
But, hey, what do I know - I believe the viewing figures were pretty good for the past couple of series?
