I think the fandom veered off in two drastically opposing directions after Cyberwoman, depending on whether or not the sight of him on his knees crying made you kind of happy in your pants or made you want to slap him. Heh, I was actually in both camps during Cyberwoman, torn between wanting to hug him and wanting to shake some sense into him. It wasn't until Countrycide that I got the 'happy in my pants' vibe. (there's something about a 'scared hero who rises to the occasion' that really gets me in a good way)
