Hey, there's another trailer out for next episode! It came out basically seconds after the next time one! It includes Morgana screaming "I WANT HIM DEAD!" in full on fury and Merlin murmuring "I lost my magic", heart broken! Watch it!
Seriously, at this point I'm just hoping they don't cock up the finale so badly that it will ruin the entire show for me (like Torchwood did). I would just like to see Merlin do SOMETHING. Last time he did anything big with his magic, he let the dragon loose (unless I'm forgetting something) and that was a loooong time ago
( ... )
I have hopes for the finale. These hopes are not very high but at least they remain somewhat hopeful.
And, yeah, magic hasn't really been used to anywhere near its potential at all, not just by Merlin. All we ever see is it used as a weapon (that ridiculously overused blast someone back thing) or to deceive with disguises. I miss Merlin's spellbook because at least then we got something different every week. I just hope they saved their special effects budget for an epic Merlin vs Morgana final battle...but we'll probably just see them throw each other against walls for a bit.
Meh, I have a Christmas wish in mind for the ending. I know it's not going to happen but as long as they don't end on a completely bleak note, I think I might be able to deal.
And My Little Pony Clips are, I think, neverending. It's a really good cartoon and the voice acting is superb and
Great recap as usual! I am going to miss your recaps when the show as done. The preview for the next episode is making my anxious. I agree, Merlin's "noo!" sounded so heartbreaking!"
Thanks! Maybe the BBC's replacement show will be worth checking out but I don't think anything will ever be as fun to recap as Merlin (was). I think Merlin might break me in the next ep. I was all still a bit grumbly and frustrated after this week and then that scene flashed up on the screen and I was just DEVASTATED. But at least it reminded me that I do still care about these characters.
Urgh, so much of this series has been disappointing I'm almost dreading the final episodes.
On a lighter (but equally important note) - what's been going on with Merlin's hair these last few weeks? Despite his beautiful cheekbones he's starting to look more and more like Baldrick from Blackadder. His 'cunning plan' this series seems to have been to be really unkind to Mordred and force him to turn to Morgana for support. What happened to cute Merlin who always put real people before the crappy plot device of 'things that might happen in some vague and undefined prophecy'? His obsessive love for Arthur's got out of control, wish we could go back to the days of flirty looks and poorly disguised slash bait.
Bring back cute Merlin without the bad hair. Please?
I guess we shall see what happens next week but, yeah. Even if it ended with Merlin and Arthur declaring their love and Arthur removing Merlin's clothing for a change as everything tastefully faded to black, I would STILL be heartbroken that it had to end. So maybe if it follows everything we've seen of this season and ends up being a great big disappointment, at least we'll be relieved that it's finally over. <-- bright side

" I TOTALLY THOUGHT MORGANA WAS GOING TO SAY HE WAS NOTHING WITHOUT ARTHUR AND GOT UNACCOUNTABLY EXCITED" - haha, same! I thought that was what she was gonna say. xD
