That's not to say that I'm never critical-- I am-- but I just prefer to concentrate on the parts of the show that I enjoy (which is the vast majority of it). I think that some people think that RTD personally owes them exactly what they have in their minds, and if he doesn't deliver, then they feel betrayed.
I don't think that we should turn off the critical aspect of our minds by any means (I personally really enjoy analysing the show in terms of how it represents gender/race/sexuality etc), but I just don't get that some people really seem to hate everything, yet they continue to invest their energy in it.
