I haven't been writing about televised Doctor Who lately, just reviewing some of the old novels I've gone back and reread, but I'm one of the less satisfied viewers. I keep watching partly because I get just enough good stuff to keep me hoping for more--most recently I was blown away by "Midnight" and "Turn Left." It's also because the series has gone through rough patches before--some of them years long--and bounced back. And "periodic rough patches" is part of my internal model for Doctor Who, because most of them had come and gone before I was a fan, and because I started with the Graham Williams era, and my reaction even at age 12 was more or less along the lines of "This show has a few problems... but it's still very interesting..."
I will have to find out where I can buy Torchwood magazine.
