RTD is in fact the crux of the matter. His scripts would be fine for, say, Crossroads, but as science fiction, they're utter utter tosh. He manages to muck up a simple "alien threat to the world" plot even! I mean, it is authorial noobishness on a bizarrely huge scale....To put it bluntly, he has crap scripts and crap plots.
