time for a rant: Doctor Who fans (and why the show is the best)

  this rant may seem a bit counter productive, bieng a doctor who fan an all, but i cant stand doctor who fans. well, they say fans, but you wouldn't notice it with al the constant hate they pour over the show.
  this rant can be about any show, or film, or tv, or anything. im just using doctor who as an example cause thats what i know about. but im sure everythign has fans who make forums on the internet and constantly slag the tv/film/football/anything off with as much hate as they can squeeze out of them. im sure the "redandwhitecop.com" liverpool fc site has the same problem with 'fans' that slag it off as doctorwhonews.net does.
  why be a fan of something if you dont like it? all you get is people protesting about every little thing about the show what it makes you winder why they bother watching it.
this is where it gets considerably geeky
the new series of doctor who, with matt smith in, is really good. there is a lot fo hate towards it from 'fans' who believe that its not as good as the really old ones, that stephen moffat and all the other writers are killing the seires off and making a spoof of its once great haydays of 1963-1989.
  no he isn't. 1963-1989 weren't the hayday. there was an old seires, now there is a new one. its not a bad thing. its a really good thing. doctor who was once an amazing series - and it still is. its great that the bbc brung it back. leave it alone.
  people think the new daleks look shit, people think matt is shit, that amy pond is shit, that it all looks awful. well, it doesnt. it looks really good. yes, it has lost a bit of money since the RTD david tennant seires but it only makes it better, as they are more story based.
  the new silurians got a lot of grief cause they had human faces. who gives a shit, its the bloody silurians! the greatest monsters ever to appear on the show, and the reason i love doctor who, and the reaon izaak is izaak today. if they had lizard-y faces youd moan that you couldnt tell who was speaking, or something equally nit-picky.
  whats with all this hate of matt smith just cause hes not david tennant? thats a bit mean, its not a nice thing to judge someone based on someone else. what about peter davison? tom baker did about eight years as the doctor whe he stepped in. and peter daivsons fifth doctor was fucking amazing.
  stop bieng so arsey bout continuity. just cause the master died in the film (1996) doesnt mean he cant come back in the new series. hes allowed! hes cool! same goes for daleks. yes, theyre used every series, but their the fucking daleks!
speaking of daleks, the new ones are cool! dont use the term "theyre not scary anymore" to slag em of. we both know that the daleks arent really that scary. theyre really cool but they aint horrifying. theyre like the the terminator. not scary, just badass.
i feel im over-nerding a bit. well, take that. thats how i roll.
also, russel t davies is cool. stop sayig you hate him. lots of good stories came out of those series and it gave the new who grounds for its popularity.
