Russell conceived the entire season, wrote the outline for each story, commissioned the scripts and had complete control over every word that went into the series.As an executive producer he was one of the three people who have worked their guts out on every aspect of the programme and without Russell there would, quite simply, be no series.
You should be down on your knees worshiping the man rather than making snide remarks about stuff you obviously know nothing about.
OK, he has had considerable input into the entire series, but we are over halfway through the series and its clear to me that it has been one of two halves, the davies episodes and those written by others, and the latter has so far beaten the other every time.
As for the show not existing without him, the BBC made the decision first to recommission Dr Who, then asked him to do it. If he'd said no, i'm sure someone else would have done it. As it is, he'll probably only spend another year or two on the show, and it will continue fine without him.
And I certainly will not worship him, as I haven't really been the biggest fan of his other work. The second coming especially I found as a christian far more offensive then jerry springer the opera, with the ending SPOILER after God dies, everyone starts being nice to each other END SPOILER ludicrous.
