I think New Who fans have battered wives syndrome. You get constantly beaten, but there's always a promise that it'll change. Just when you are about to leave for good, you get thrown a little present and an apology and are made to feel special again.
And then the beatings resume.
Except it aint a dinner for 2 at the Harvester or the nicest handbag at TK Max.
An episode like Dalek, Fathers day or Silence in the Library.
Is more like the keys to an MG with a pony in the back seat.
How ever shit it maybe Dr Who has the ability to blow all the opossition out of the water. With a rye smile, wit, bargain basement effects when it can be bothered.
nb with dialogue for companions. I think series 1+2 Rose and Mickey were actually pretty damned good. With Rose as a sort of engaging chav companion and they even had a proper naughty companion who was sent home as a punishment.

i remember an RTD opener with autons that was poor. The impossible astronaut wasn't good though and I believe that was an opener - or was it a season finale?
It was the first proper Who in 10 years of course it was rough.
Rough but fun.
Bit like your good self.
