I never said it was shit. I thought it was actually pretty good, as far as RTD episodes go. But like MW said, the Cyberking derailed it. There is no way in hell I can imagine the Cybermen going to war in giant robots; especially ones that look like Rita Repulsa used her wand on a Cyberman.
Really, my only gripe with the episode is that RTD almost ruined the Cybermen like he has the Daleks. Thankfully I don't think he was succesful. Otherwise Morrissey managed to pretty much hold up the episode; so I think RTD owes him a big hug or a dollar or something.
If they pulled a Colin Baker and made Morrisey the actual next Doctor, though, I would be 100% supportive. I think he would be great.
EDIT: One more thing. Seeing the Cybermen on screen again, almost being wrecked by RTD, makes me more than interested in doing our audios again, in a 'if you want something done right, do it yourself' sort of way.
