And, you know, completely valid. I have a friend who doesn't watch Battlestar Galactica simply because it's too bleak for her.
And it's strange, because I can *totally* watch BSG. You know, I think it might be because I'm not really emotionally invested in any of the characters on that show. It's more like watching a fish tank. Or something.
But with DW, I'm finding myself really caring about the characters. And so while I can somewhat understand the mindset of the Doctor in where he is in his head, it's painful to watch. I mean, actually painful.
Selfishly, I do hope that he heals quickly enough for you to keep loving the show. You point out some really nifty things.
Well, thanks. :) I'm kinda thinking that if it keeps going down this path, I might be better off just dropping it for a while. Just so I don't get into this bitter place with it. However, I'm not sure I'd be able to. I'm quite Pavlovian when it comes to Doctor Who. :D
