When NuWho fans say that Rose was the first fully fleshed out companion. I shared a really annoying article once which said as much and congratulated RTD for it even though the last three stories of TruWho focused specifically on Ace. We saw her mother as a baby, her friends and witnessed her past come back to haunt her in Ghost Light. Her bisexuality was briefly touched on in Survival too. Other companions from the classic series were fleshed out too, but I think Ace was really focused on the most. Screw Rose Tyler.

People comparing the Jodie era to the McCoy one.
Dismissing the classic off hand without even giving it a chance, despite nuwho not existing without it.
General slagging of of the classic by people you'd think would know better.

Any praise for Missy. Not just as a who fan, but I get angry because if people say she is a good version of the Master, despite throwing every single thing about his character in the bin, then what is the point of even trying to adapt old characters? I might as well do a version of Batman who is a horse that lives in Scotland and steals hay to try and build a city where he can live on his own, and as long as I link it to a pushy political cause, and as long as Batman fans are spineless, then I'll get praised as much as Tim Burton who actually put time and effort into doing a proper version of Batman.
I now get pissed when I see people like Channel Pup slag off Jared Leto but say they liked Missy. FFS I don't even like Leto that much (though he was excellent in the Snyder Cut) but at least he was a proper version of the fokking Joker. If he were like Missy he wouldn't have even been a clown.
The attempts to try and reimagine the Peter Capaldi era as a misunderstood, cerebral era of the show.
The sell out and creepy cult like classic era fans like Nick Briggs, Benjamin Cook, and Peter D Nolan, who for whatever reason will back up EVERYTHING the revival does, to the point where it isn't even DW anymore.

The praise for the Simms Master boils my piss about as much as that for Missy.
Not only is he paint by numbers chaotic villain, calling him a Joker rip-off to charitable, that its the fact the character pretty much lost all his agency in if bloody daube story for nuwho. The Drumming pretty much undercuts anything he's ever done, making it partially not his fault, and turns one of the Doctor's most dangerous foes, a man who once tried held the universe hostage with the threat of weaponised entropy, into a person we could on some level feel sorry for and wish the Doctor and he would live in the tardis together. Which opened the door for bloody Missy.
