I think both sides are right. If you wanted 'old' TW or even CoE TW, this isn't it. If you like American style mystery/action shows this is it.
One of the problems I'm seeing is whether some of the over the top stuff is done for laughs or is supposed to be serious. Take Gwen with the baby in one hand/gun in the other. I have a feeling that RTD was trying to recapture some of the 'camp' from earlier seasons, but that's not clear to a lot of viewers new and old.
As for the Welsh accents, honestly, there were times when you couldn't understand Gwen. That was never the case before. No problem with Andy or Rhys apparently. I don't know if she was told to use a heavier accent, but I can see why people might be complaining.
