I think I'm Dr Who biased

I have issues with the new Dr Who series, this may be because the older series has made me incredibally biased.
1. The theme tune
What on earth have they done to it!!! I admit I used to get excited when I heard the older version...like when they played it at the V festival for some reason last year, I got really excited! But now it's unrecognisable, I don't like the change...sorry. It sounds nothing like the old one and I can't sing along to it any more.
2. Green sonic screwdriver
Just no.
3. The new TARDIS
I don't actually mind it, it's not that bad so I'll move on.
4. Amy Pond
At first I kind of liked her character, she seemed fun and quirky. But now! She's kind of irritating. For a start she knows too much too quickly. Why didn't Winston Churchill question her clothes? (Queen Victoria pointed out what Rose was wearing) Why did she act all cocky to the daleks? Why didn't she bother to change out of a nightie (which the Dr was clearly perving on when he was holding her out of the TARDIS by her foot)and the robot mans Scottish too, so what, lots of people are Scottish. Grrr
5. Rainbow daleks
WHAT ON EARTH....sorry WHAT ON SKARO!! I don't like them either...as Hayley pointed out, they look like Power Rangers. I was actually upset when they killed the proper daleks (how cute where they with their little bags and can I have one that brings me tea too?)They look too big, like they've eaten too much....do daleks eat?
6. What's with the cracks?
I know they'll explain later, but it's just irritating.
7. Ew creepy robot things that have different faces
They make me want to cry.
8. It's not David Tennant
That's the main thing I don't like. He acted in such a way that I empathised with. I felt sorry that he was the last Time Lord, I felt sorry for him when old enemies returned, when he lost lovers/companians. But so far I don't care about the new one, I'm like...meh. Not blaming the actor, he's growing on me a bit, but when the storylines seem to rush through the plot...it's hard to get used to a character. And what is he wearing....just no, think of the children. Bow tie! Elbow pads! Tweed! I don't approve, that's not cool, he atleast needs a decorative vegetable in his lapel. I also miss the flapping of a large coat when the Dr runs, it's just not as dramatic. Flappy flappy running...flapping squared when Captain Jack is involved. The running is too quiet in this series.

I'm sad now and going to watch some past episodes on DVD. Goodnight x
