I'm peeved about the casting choice of course. He's the same age as me for crying out loud!! It's like casting a teenager to play James Bond.
I've vented about it, naturally...but at the end of the day it doesn't really concern me as it's not my show anymore. I quit midway through series 2 and have no intention of returning. I'm quite happy sticking to the Classic series and ignoring everything else.
And oh man, I was right into XF fandom when the Doggett War exploded. I actually like him and Monica now, but back then...hooboy. I didn't whine about it like a little bitch though, I just didn't watch the new episodes and stuck to my dvds. When I got the collector's boxset I finally gave him a fair crack, being several years removed from fandom and stuff, and really enjoyed the Mulderless seasons for the most part.
I doubt I'm gonna be that generous with Nu Hu though. It's waaaaay to far removed from what I consider the show to be to give it a second chance.
