"The End of Time" never made much sense. "The Day of the Doctor" has apparently decided to entirely ignore it (aside from a dig at Ten's "I don't want to go.") TEoT made such a big deal of eeeevil Time Lords, but if TDotD made any acknowledgment that the leaders of Gallifrey were crazypants, I missed it. The Night of the Doctor mentioned Time Lords gone bad, but now all of a sudden it's a good thing if Gallifrey is apparently retrievable?
I don't expect Doctor Who to maintain perfect continuity, but I find it slightly perplexing and frustrating when major points of canon from just a few years ago apparently get chucked out. But of all the episodes to ignore, I suppose TEoT was pretty stupid in its Time Lord plot. Oh well. Maybe more will be explained later.
