Merlin Season 3 - The Tears of Uther Pendragon
OMG Merlin, you blessed bastard of a show you. What a great first episode for season 3.
First off:
The Good
First off:
The Good
- Morgana and Morgause are beautiful badasses that I can't help cheering for
- Anthony Head is crazy fine actor (when he cried and started hallucinating, I was actually slightly moved for Uther)
- The Merlin/Aruthur play was fantastic. They seem closer somehow, like a bunch of stuff went down in the one year gap. I love that Merlin insults Arthur (more) freely now. No matter where they are or who is with them <3 (the scene with Arthur training and the interplay between the two was brilliant)
- Did I mention the awesomeness of Morgana and Morgause? I need an icon of them.
- The Next Time on Merlin segment made me sqee. Shit is gonna go down so much and it looks EPIC
- Not enough shirtless Arthur
- Morgana kept smiling devishly at the camera all the time (I was like "girl, they're gonna find out that you're plotting against Camelot if you keep on looking like the cat who just got the cream everytime something bad goes down")
- Morgana and Morgause look like the big baddies for s3. And I can't help but think of The Mists of Avalon and want to scream at Merlin that he's just misunderstanding them. That they're trying their best to survive (keep the magic alive) and save Camelot in their own way. Don't be a hater Merlin.
