It is disappointing. And it's made quite a few people decide not to watch the show now that he's taken over. Just as a random example, he was talking about casting the role of Amy, and he said that his casting director (I believe) suggested Karen Gillen, but he saw a picture of her and thought she was short and dumpy, so he didn't want her. But then they brought her in and she was willowy and beautiful, and he changed his mind. Things like that. He also makes a lot of sweeping statements about all women planning their wedding days since they were little girls and all women being needy and clingy--things like that.
