I think Rose was a really bad influence on both Doctors - she infected them with stupidity and the total lack of responsibility, while lecturing them about caring. Just like Gwen-bloody-Cooper, if you think about it. Totally agree!
But then, it's a rare case that we'd find a well-rounded female charcter in a TV-show, especially in sci-fi. Although I quite like Sarah Jane and Donna. Very true! I like Sarah Jane in the episodes I've seem her in, as well as SJA (although I'm behind on that). Donna is quite fun and her character arc is probably the best of any of the companions and it is so heartbreaking when it is all undone. I wish there were more interesting female characters in TV shows, but mostly even when they are set up well to start with the shows manage to screw it up.
