I am going to assume that RTD = Russel Davis Thomas, the writer for seasons 1-4? :)
I am ever so pleased to hear that there is little continuity so I can hope into season 5 again! \o/ because I love Eleven! I like Ten, yes, yes, but Matt Smith - gah, so cute. And Amy and Rory and ... heeeeee....
I don't know if you read my post about why I avoided Dr Who, but the RTD-isms is exactly why I did avoid it. OTT, bad acting (from Rose) and just generally being wary. Eleven changed that, so I am giving the earlier seasons another shot. There've been some good 'uns and some shockers! :)
I must say I am fascinated by the Dr's backstory and I know there really isn't anything canon besides barbones BUT I am sure there is fic galore exploring it all. I will explore fic, eventually, once I've caught up.
