I'm in agreement; <i>Doctor Who</i> seems to have something for everybody...which is why I love some episodes to distraction and can barely restrain myself from throwing stuff at the television during others. I just have a problem with people who drop in on a blog discussion, when we're having a devastatingly witty moanfest or a lively argument, and post stuff like: "Well, if you don't like it, why do you watch the show?" We <b>love</b> the show, that's why we react so strongly! Helen Raynor and RTD should steer clear of the critics, and I'll probably watch whatever RTD writes next, and avoid anything by Helen Raynor....<br /><br />I'll also continue to stay out of fan forums. Seriously, those people are insane...Persephonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15560178981320189795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215926314312539949.post-9815047206295309932011-04-08T01:10:31.039-07:002011-04-08T01:10:31.039-07:00OOh, we might fall out here, but probably not. For...OOh, we might fall out here, but probably not. For every "media expert" (an oxymoron if ever there was one) and contributor to fan forums, there are hundreds of thousands of viewers who just love to watch the shows and, however good or bad each episode/series is, look forward to the next one. I'm that age group that, due to the gap before the resurrection by Davies, missed watching Who with my sons, but now have the pleasure of watching with my seven year old grandaughter. And there's the key, the concept and the writing provide something for so many different people to enjoy and that's what light entertainment is. Interestingly (to me anyway) she's now watching the box set of the very first series (which is what locked me into Who in the first place) and seems to derive as much from it, despite its now outdated production values, as from the "new" stuff. Enjoy the forthcoming series.peterajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17567973123780180971noreply@blogger.com
