i have a (mildly) whovian friend that couldn't think of the word 'companion' the other day and referred to river song as an 'accomplice' instead and i'm still thinking about it...like that's literally what she is...an accomplice to all the doctor's war crimes...but fuck if that's not the cutest substitution i've ever heard

River never met Jack on screen because the writers knew that the cameras couldn't handle the level of flirting and would just shut down

rivers speech about loving the doctor while 12 stands there without her knowing never fails to destroy me. she loves him so much and doesn’t believe he loves her back, imagine hearing “it's like loving the stars themselves. You don't expect a sunset to admire you back.” and knowing it’s about you, how do you not break into tears. his soft smile and the look on rivers face when she finally realizes who it is, the way they slip back into their easy banter, the way they’re both ready to sacrifice themselves for the other so readily? i love them dearly, they make me ill

cw for discussion of religious trauma
The silence story arc in Doctor Who works weirdly well as a metaphor for religious trauma. The Silence are explicitly a religious order. They are tied to men in black imagery that loosely associates them with the American government and the FBI and CIA in the same episode where a man is kicked out of the FBI for being gay. They create repressed memories that have negative consequences even though you don't know they're there.
They try to control Amy's pregnancy and take her baby away. They raise River, who is canonically bisexual even though it's only mentioned in passing, to hate herself, and she escapes from their grasp through falling in love with someone she was taught from birth to hate. I wish this subtext had been explored and brought to the forefront more, because it lines up insanely well and as it stands I'm not even sure if it's intentional.

Steven Moffat very deliberately didn't tell anyone other than Alex Kingston the true identity of River Song while filming 'Silence In The Library'.
This worked to great effect, as nobody knew how to react, and David Tennant's confusion in particular is entirely genuine.
According to Moffat, Tennant assumed the River Song was a future incarnation of the Doctor. He made absolutely no effort to correct him.

11: *to Amy*: That woman (River) is not dragging me anywhere.
Me: *stoned on my couch*: She literally drags you everywhere? And you like it???
