I think the sharing the spotlight thing was valid in the first half of the season, when Amy was less front and center but Rory was getting some time to be a companion in his own right and we were also getting to know them as an established couple. I mean, I can understand why some Amy fans were upset about that, but narratively, I think that's legit. In the second half of the season, though . . .
I like the Pond family theme because I think in each instance that's just the focal point of a much more complicated and layered and different set of issues for each of them, but, yes, I could see how you could find it repetitive.
