If any of you guys haven't read the recent RTD interviews about the end of Day 4, they can be found here and here. (Obviously spoilery)
Now, the first interview, I have absolutely no problem with. I mean, the "poetry" comment is weird (since when is poetry happy? *boggles*), and the Supernatural comment came off pretty badly, but...
The SPN thing was a good-natured joke (although not exactly in the best taste); I can understand him being annoyed by allegations of ( implied spoilers ) and... he's a writer who made a successful drama. Millions of people not only enjoyed it but, judging by the AIs, loved it, and he pulled people's heartstrings, just like he wanted.
RTD believes in what he wrote and why he wrote it, and he isn't about to let a few thousand people out of millions (a distinct minority) change his opinion. After what happened to Moran, I'm sure he's pretty annoyed by certain members of fandom too. And I think that's okay.
The second interview, on the other hand...
( Spoilers for Day 4, and a 'shipper' who is NOT just a slash fangirl's rant )
And on a completely unrelated but just as irritating note, I just watched a House episode where the gay couple's baby dies and the nice heterosexual couple's baby lives, even though both were ill and the former's baby got sick later.
Oi.
On the bright side of things, I go to England in two months, and I've managed to go to the gym 3 days in a row. w007
