Well, Four was around for twice as long as Five--indeed, twice as long as MOST of the other Doctors (including the New Who ones). Ten has not had an unusually long run; just three and a half series. Eleven has already had two, and will have at least one more. Four also came at a time where many other countries started getting DW--for example think he was the first Doctor a lot of Americans saw (I know he was my first). So I think it's hard to compare Four's popularity to any of the others--especially the old school ones--since he had so much stacked in his favor. My point was, even then the show was a huge phenomenon, and they had to know it would be something of an issue, and they still didn't feel the need to pull a move like that.

You are right about fandom, and media interaction with it, are very different than they were back in the days of Four and Five (the early 80's).

I dunno, though, I don't buy that Rusty would intentionally do something to make Ten look bad. I honestly think he thought he was giving him depth and stuff... d-:

I admittedly don't know much about whatever goes on on the writer end of it. It was literally just a vibe. If he was trying to give him depth, it failed rather miserably! ;P

intentionally do something to make Ten look bad.

Let me give a caveat: He wouldn't do that without him getting called out on it, like the Time Lord victorious stuff. But no one called Ten out on his whining, which makes me thing Rusty didn't think it was a bad thing.
