So sorry about the delayed reply. (I got really bad food poisoning and ended up in hospital, so i've been out of action for a couple of days :( But i'm fine now and back in perfect fangirl form) :P
I completely agree that anyone who wasn't expecting it to be totally nuts is even crazier than RTD. Of course it was going to be nuts. If for no other reason than its the MASTER!
I don't know, I think I just have this totally irrational love for RTD :P I fully acknowledge that his writing can be deeply flawed at times, but I just think the positives outweigh the negatives. Like, I know Moffatt!Who will probably be more adult, more tightly plotted etc, but I genuinely think it won't have the heart that RTD!Who has. He does the tiny human moments like no one else... and I really mean NO ONE else. (And this is coming from an uber-Joss-fan).
Have you seen his other stuff? Like Queer as Folk UK and The Second Coming? They're just... I have no words ♥
And OH MY GOD about the 'running through the red grass' bit. I mean, I know he doesn't believe in pandering to fans, but SERIOUSLY. That whole scene was like a love letter to fandom. Hearing the drumming... the Doctor ASKING HIM FOR HELP! I actually yelped 'oh my god' really really loudly at that point :P
P.S. Ok, I already feel like i've betrayed Joss with that earlier statement. Joss is still my master... Joss is still my master... *nods*
