When exactly did the BBC ruin Doctor Who, its long-running time-travel action-soap-comedy-adventure?

Russel T was good at the stories, but everything was spoilt by the lame solutions - Eccleston: Rose evaporates the Daleks...

Taking the show off the air at any time ruins it! The premise is fun. I loved it as a kid and now my kids love it. We're enjoying reruns from WH to the present.

Keep the seasonal story arc going!

Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy were the lowest points in Doctor Who history. It seemed to me the BBC was trying to kill the show. Patterson might have been a better choice for the Doctor. I know David Morrisey would have been. But how did bringing an upstart pretty boy with poor skills to the screen become a good move and special. Would having him prematurely regenerate half way through his tenure because of a bad regeneration save the day. Then with the down turned economy is the 3 to 25 year olds really financially going to be able to afford your products? The Doctor doesn't need to be 35 to 45, just not a poster boy band type. BBC missed doing something special.. is Moffat really in charge, was this Wenger actual promotion of this must be the special part? BBC misses by doing a poor job of promoting Doctor Who in the States as far back as 1978. Now you miss again and will the fans on this side of the pond give more millions to the BBC to fix the poor acting? I see a younger Colin or Sylvester coming to the spot light. Oh God I hope I am over reacting.....I can think of a few dozen women actress' that would have been something really special. Take this as a future theme.. Add an omnipotent being from the Quantum continuum and call it "The Great Manipulator." Oh that would explain how Jack would become the face of Boe. Lord help us as fans.
