The New Doctor Who

I'd been avoiding watching the new Dr Who series because I liked the old series when I was younger and I was worried that I would hate the updated version.... but...

[begin rant]

...I caught half an episode last night... and I think I hate it.
Any series that has a sequence like the following in it, needs to have a new word invented to describe how bad it is.

"As the Cybermen climb the stairs, intending to escape back to the parallel Earth, they are met by a Cyberman with a female-sounding voice, that of Yvonne Hartman. She declares that they shall not pass and shoots them with an energy rifle. As she repeats that she did her duty for Queen and country, a tear of oil leaks from the duct below her left eye."

That is so bad, I feel faint.
I want to have an out-of-body experience so I can avoid reading/seeing/hearing/thinking that ever again.

I'm sorry to my various friends and family members who may like the show but, how could anyone take pantomine melodrama like that seriously?
OH MY GOD!

[end rant]

*Phew*
I feel better now that I've got that out of my system.
