And eh, I'd rather OTT than blatantly shitting all over DW's history. RTD definitely wasn't perfect, and I'm not saying he was an amazing writer. But the way he wrote the Time Lords in EOT IS consistent with the way they were being developed in the classic series (hell, they were antagonistic from their first appearance - wiping Zoe and Jamie's memories, forcing the Doctor to regenerate, and stranding him on Earth are not exactly benevolent), and that kept building and building to the point that even by the Sixth Doctor era, they were described as the most corrupt civilisation in the universe.
RTD acknowledged that the Doctor would feel a tremendous amount of guilt straight after the Time War and would want to bring them back (his conversation with Rose in... Father's Day, IIRC). He also constantly revealed more and more and had the Doctor realise that the universe was FAR better off without them. End of Time comes around and we find out why, and it makes sense, given the history we've seen since, like, 1968.
Moffat ignored ALL of that in favour of, "Yayyyy saving the chilluns going home!"
