[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 398307, member: 40536"] Well about a divided fanbase, there is a difference that needs clarifying. In the past, the "divisions" were constructive criticism about stories or character development, in general, but the overwhelming majority of fans were watching and enjoying the show. Constructive criticism is healthy, because it gives the showrunners an opportunity to correct aspects of the show that needed it. The divisions of the Chinall/JW era were because the show had become a shadow of its former self, with bad casting, worse stories, writers and directors who were inexperienced in sci-fi, and a shocking lack of respect by the production team for both long-time fans and the show's origins. It was more than division - the majority of fans stopped watching, as evidenced by the steep decline in ratings and the disappearance of merchandise from the shelves. RTD was clearly rehired to repair the show. So far, it is trending in the right direction [/QUOTE]
