Someone commenting on that same post did a fantastic summary of the interview:
[excerpt of an interview conducted by the animation-themed website AfterElroy]
AE: There's been a lot of controversy about what you've done with Scooby Doo this season. Some fans have been rather upset...
Russell T. Davies: Good, that means people care. Of course, the people who do care, are just nine or so hysterical women out there on the internet.
AE: [cartoon head scratch sound] Uh, wait, let me check my notes: it's good that people care so much, but there aren't that many people out there who actually care so much, so that's good?
RTD: Right. Precisely.
He might be seen as a decent writer, but from what he said, it sounds like he's actually lost the plot.
And yeah, the whole thing just reeks of him being waaaay too successful for his own good. That final line is just the icing on the big headed cake, really, isn't it?
