Like with anything that's really popular, some people are going to have a different opinion, and especially when it comes to TV, where everyone's a critic. As sacrilegious as it may seem, there are people out there who will criticise elements of the show, or may not even like it at all.

It's difficult to know how to respond when you hear such ludicrous statements about it not ageing well or having unlikable characters. You'll probably get angry, and respond with a shocked verbal outburst, but the best thing to do is rise above it, because those people have no joy in their lives.
