I missed this earlier. Fascinating. I always try to be nice about Doctor Who because there is always something in it that I love, and I love what different contributors bring to it. There's a lot of vileness, though, and lots of people wanting to stir it up because it seems to be the only way they can express their affection for the programme. It feels like a form of PTSD transference, if such a thing exists; if you were a child in a traumatic situation and you thought this series was the one thing which would never change while everything else was collapsing around you, and then you grow up and find that not only do you change, the programme does too, it might feel like an impossible betrayal which you take out on everyone else.
