The problem lies in the fact that a lot of older fans believe the Doctor should be an unknowable character; you can get the gist of his personality (in that particular regeneration), but you'll never be able to really get in his head or find out his past. This dates back to the 60's when the show first started. The title implies that we don't know who the Doctor is.
But today's writers still want to write episodes that are character-driven, so they feel free to focus on the companions.
I just want adventures, and aliens and battles!
