I am tired of the goofy young Doctor thing (and was from day one), I'd like to see him as a competent and sophisticated alien super genius again.

Jon Pertwee is largely to blame there. 

For the first two Doctors the character was backed up by a young male companion who would do all the action scenes.

When Jon took those on for himself the role became more action orientated.

It could go back of course.

Of the other mentioned names the young and gingerish Daniel Rigby has something of the seventies about him.
