Merlin thoughts.

• This show is awful. I am not even joking or saying that fondly. It is legitimately awful.
• But I was shipping Morgana/Gwen by, like, the third episode. Come on. No one gets that attached to just a servant.
• I’m still waiting for the Merlin/Arthur subtext to properly kick in.
• But mostly this show is awful. Let’s see. Roll credits. Someone sinister does magic. Fluff. Gaius scolds Merlin. More fluff. Plot stuff. Weird vibes between Merlin and Gwen despite the fact that they are clearly bros. Merlin needs to use magic! Gaius says Magic is Not Allowed! Merlin is torn. He goes to see the dragon, who floats down from the ceiling, says two sentences, and flies back up. Merlin uses magic anyway and saves the day. Everything is okay in Camelot once more. Next time on Merlin: More of the Same Stuff but with Slight Differences!
