OP, I used to be much like you. Every Whovian I'd ever met would tell me about OMG TEH DRAMAZ in their fandom, and after a while, I start side-eyeing the whole endeavor as being filled with crazy people and the show looked... well, it looked pretty damn stupid. (Worse than old school Star Trek, which was my gold standard for 'embarrassing thing to be sort of a fan of.')

But then, a good friend of mine whose taste I really respect sent me some DVDs of the new series and I thought, well, OK, I'll try just one and see what happens. And it wasn't so bad, and so I watched another... and another... And now I'm a pretty big fan, although I realize it's not everyone's cup of tea.

Anyway, I don't want you to feel like I'm getting all pushy with you, but I really hope you have an experience similar to mine and meet some reasonable and sane fans who know how not to over-sell something. And if you don't meet those people and never watch the show, hey, that's cool, too.
