One of the most aggravating things I see on tumblr is people complaining about specials and changes in shows.  Most notably of late is the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special.  While some are more than justified in being disappointed that only 10 and 11 will be in it, as well as John Hurt, (8.5?) I’m getting sick of the complaints that it’s just the 8th year anniversary special instead of the 50th because of it.

      If you love a show enough to call yourself a fan, then you should be able to trust the writers enough to put out a decent product.  With the 50th there are reasons why there are only 2 Doctors, and they will be made as clear as anything else in Doctor Who when it happens.  Given the cast involved, it may even go back to the Meta-Crisis plot point dropped off in Series 4 of New Who, and I’m fine with that.

      Trust Moffat and the other writers, even if you don’t like them, give the anniversary special a chance, and for the love of all that’s good understand that just because Classic Doctors won’t be back doesn’t mean that they have been abandoned in favor of the new.
