I don't get the Blue Suit hatred

I really don't. Sure, I prefer the brown pinstripes, but I just don't get why the blue suit is SOOOO hated. While watching the show, I never even noticed that he wore a different suit. I didn't. It wasn't until I came online and read all of the dismissive, derogatory insults leveled against the blue suit that I took notice of it. And yeah, again, the pinstripes is better, but I just don't think the blue suit is that bad.

Going into my lonely-non-hating-blue-suit corner now.

For me, it depended on the lighting. Sometimes it seemed to glow this bright blue and the red pin-stripes completely washed out, and then I disliked it. Other times it looked fine. It grew on me over the course of the 4th season. Part of the issue is that he looks SO GOOD in the brown that nothing will ever measure up.

I don't hate it either. In fact, I think it's rather adorable now that they made it so that he was all matching with Rose in "Journey's End".

I file the blue suit into the “it's hard to make DT look terrible, but damnit, they've tried!”

I don't hate it, it's just it doesn't look anywhere near as good and I take the first opportunity to mock it! My 'blue suit bashing' tag is mostly in jest, anyway!

I like the blue suit. He just needs to make sure that he wears a navy blue overcoat with it, and not a brown one.

I think it serves to have a little layer of emo!ten, which is nice. I like how they selectively used it through the recent sets of episodes.
I like his jaunty red tie and converses to go with it. It's like "yeah, I'm a little emo, but I still have my wacky!"
