i think it'll depend a lot on how it's handled, which is my biggest worry...rtd may have some fairly good 'epic' ideas, but nine times out of ten, he sucks mightily when it comes to actually executing them.
as i told o-c above, i'd really like to see something like what happened to five at the end of 'resurrection of the daleks': tegan's departure really made the doctor re-examine himself and his behavior, and motivated him to make a change (the bit where he went spare with the gun never happened in my canon, lalalalala can't hear you). and lord knows ten's got a HELL of a lot to examine: his treatment of jack and martha; his consolation-prize treatment of rose; his careless deposition of harriet jones; etc etc etc.
you're right about rtd and ten, though - the one thing i will never, ever forgive uncle rusty for is seeing how much of an unlikeable, borderline-sociopathic prick he can make my childhood hero into and still have the audience like him.
