TARDIScrash

I like the new show. Well, I like it now. I started in on series 2 and I thought it was all pretty cool but I never would have gotten in to fandom without the Master and other Time Lord talk making me curious enough to go back and find all to really interesting stuff.

Now I really have liked the last two series, to the point that I’ve done a fair bit of fan work for it, so maybe I would have been caught on the new stuff? Who knows. 

Even as much as I love Classic Who it’s really more the audios that are the draw. I think it’s where the best stories and characters are.

I can’t see being upset about people liking what they like. Would I be happy if there were a few less Ten/Rose fanworks and a few more Five/Nyssa? Yes, very. Would I like to see people get as excited about Romana as they do about River? Yeah. But I’m not out to ruin anyone’s fun, I just tend not to follow people if they post stuff I’m not into. I think others would do well to do the same.

What I don’t like is when people act like all the old stuff doesn’t exist any more or make statements that at completely untrue about the Doctor (he would never touch a gun he or has never had a companion die) and won’t listen when they are told otherwise.

It’s really just an attitude that nothing but 9-10-11 matters that piss people off but, hey, even most classic fans don’t know about my favourite characters and stories so you know, you learn to deal.
