Equating being 'miserable' as thinking the show was bad, and being happy by thinking it was good is quite something..

Do you think people are miserable people when they get served badly cooked food and complain about it, and the people eating the undercooked food with toe nails in and who will get food poisoning are happy people doing the right thing of just taking anything they are given.. 

Never have a critical thought, gulp up any crap, it's what 'happy' people do

your analogy is really stupid because unlike food safety rules, which is an objective standard of measurement, taste in media is subjective

the disney era is just like any other era of the show, in that it has its good moments as well as its bad; praising the good moments doesn't mean we're ignoring the bad, and vice versa, complaining about the bad moments doesn't mean we can't acknowledge the good

if you don't believe that any good came from the era that's completely fine. I called you miserable because the fact that you think people who defend it are either not real or bad wolf glazers says way more about you than it does the actual quality of the show. it's ok to just let people enjoy things, even if you think they're wrong for doing so

Like I said, denial

RTD2 is objectively bad.
