...Yeah, about that. [shifty] See, thing is, I love old!Who, because I was brainwashed at an early age by a British grandfather into believing it was The One True Sci Fi... but there are times when it's kind of crap. And by kind of, I mean very. And by very, I mean "what's that smell?" Actually, considering my general aversion to camp, I'm surprised by the fierce nostalgia I still have for it. New Who probably plays a big role in that... but back to The Five Doctors. Even for old!Who, the anniversary specials were spectacularly bad. And that one, unusually so.
(And when I say this, you have to know that TFD takes place during Fifth's era, and Fifth is the first Doctor I ever saw and a Doctor that, despite the fact that I can't actually name one story he appeared in that I really liked, is my Doctor, on the basis of nostalgia and a weakness for fluffy blond hair alone.)
And now I'll go back under the rock from whence I came.
