I hear Lost could use a ratings improvement...

Doctor Who and the Fan Who Never Was - currybetdotnet - 3 April, 2008:

It never ceases to amaze me that your favourite thing ever can be a show that basically uses the vehicle of traveling through time and space to scream at the top of its lungs "Isn't life and the universe fantastic? Aren't people amazing when they are put in difficult situations? Isn't there some beauty and goodness in every sentient being in creation?", and then you hate gay people.

[...]

So basically the person behind the response doesn't think it matters if Big Finish go out of business and stop making audio Doctor Who, doesn't like the way the 'Restoration Team' have restored old episodes for DVD release, and can't watch the new series without editing it first to take out all the gay bits that they object too.

My suggestion?

If it makes them that angry, and they hate it all so much, perhaps they should think about getting a different favourite programme...

"I'd hate to see them go out of business, but they will someday anyway so I bear no guilt in driving them out"? He might as well have just up and said it that way.

Considering the bit about editing the avis for the children, this really seems to be a case of someone congratulating themselves for attempting to drive the whole franchise down, on the basis that they don't like it, while hiding behind some sham facade of "what the fans want."
