About which bit?
The over reaction is just your normal run of the mill over reaction, its half the reason I love and hate that forum. You can't make it through the day without feeling a little bit insulted as someone calls you thick for liking a certain episode or accuses you of just being blindly in love with the BBC or the writer or Moffat.
I kind of agree with some of the DISAPPOINTMENT I don't agree with the entitlement. At the end of the day the BBC don't have to tell me exactly what their plans are. I've never heard of fans demanding to know the broadcast patterns and all that stuff of their TV show they just wait and play it by ear. When they are treated they take that as entitlement to always be treated like that (I think series 6 and 7 were commissioned together or something).
I get disappointment if that is all we are getting because Moffat has been bigging this year up and to be fair we didn't get a whole series in 2012, to be told all you'll get in the 50th year is the end of the series that most think should have been showing in 2012, I guess you have a right to feel a bit let down. But they make it sound like Moff was lying from the start, I doubt it, the plans probably changed. Everything has to be connected and a big conspiracy with them.
They also don't want anything BUT episodes, but I bet you if there was an episode every week for the whole of 2013, first off they'd hate nearly every episode and moan about why they didn't choose quality over quantity and secondly they'd moan all the did do was the episodes.
They've totally discounted anything they are not interested in. For me the 11 books written by 11 childrens authors, featuring a new story for each Doctor sounds fascinating, and something they might not have done if it hadn't been the 50th! I'm also interested in the stamps even if I don't collect stamps.
I mean the website is a little muddled and not top notch but then again nothing on the BBC is the top end of web design. Are they happy they are getting a 50th anniversary web site that will be updated during the year? Of course not, just more to drip about.
As for the other one I'll PM you details as it involves naming names and I won't do that. It is a funny story especially as you aren't a part of that forum!
