Despairing at humanity

So apparently ComicCon is soon. And RTD will be there. There are posts (yes, more than one) going up about what 'to do' to RTD. Threating, throwing coffee at him, yelling insults, and other things have all been mentioned.

Holy hell. People. Grow up. It's a tv show. Now I realize something happened that you didn't like but stop giving fans a bad name.

Never has this macro been more appropriate.

It's actually not for another two weeks, but yeah. I've seen the threats and this was one of the other reasons the recent events in TW pissed me off. I just *knew* that the fandom would turn even wankier.

I'll be at the Torchwood panel...should make for some interesting pics at least.

That's good at least, maybe people will have a chance to cool the heck off a little. Some of the posts and comments were SCARY.

I bet it is an interesting panel! I'm jealous!

Unfortunately, since the 'official' airing of the eps here in the U.S. was timed to be during Comic Con, I'm thinking the batshit level may rise more than a bit. They're airing the last two eps on Saturday night at the Con and the panel is supposed to be on Sunday (at least this is what I've heard, no official schedule for those two days yet).

Oooh, I hadn't thought of that. But at least most of the batshit crazy fans will have seen it already or have been spoiled to the ending.

Of course RTD is mostly AFTER ratings and reactions, so he'll probably be thrilled.
