Oh, now you’ve done it.

Merlin (the character) has really goofed this time. Never, never trust a little kid with eyes that blue (Damien, anyone?). This show could go on forever with the way they’ve set up the bits and pieces of the legend, and I quite like it this way. Sure, I’d rather have Lancelot stayed around in a featured role, but I like this quick-glimpse formula. Good week.

I’m going to go out on a limb as say that SGA sucked. I watched the first few minutes, the last few minutes and fast-forwarded through the rest. Michael, hostages, blah blah blah. Even though Michael may actually be dead (a couple years too late), I can’t care. Pity, really.

Now that Primeval (which I love, btw) has finished its run and Merlin is wrapping up, Saturdays are going to be terribly boring for a while. Robin Hood isn’t starting anytime soon and I’m dreading the weeks of no new shows to love.

In the last two weeks I managed to live through two school trips unscathed. Score! Ooh, and this morning, I got to have a nice coffee date with my Dad and Jamie. I’m such a sucker for seasonal promotions. I had the Pumpkin Spiced Latte and a Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin–and a lot of fun.

I am elevating this show to the level of . This episode had all the things I’ve loved so far and lots more of new things to love. I can’t even begin to say how amazing Lancelot is, and I hope we see more of him in the future. Geeky!Merlin with the thumbs up–Ha! Lancelot and Gwen–Ooh, and Awww. Lancelot and every scene he was in–Yum!

At this point, I think the following people are in love with Lancelot: Me, of course, Merlin, Gwen, Arthur, all the other knights, and pretty much everyone else in Camelot (except Giles..Boo!).

My only worry is, “How do you follow up next week when this week ends?”

Oh, and I’m playing around with the site. I’ve added the theme switcher back if you want to change themes.

I enjoyed Episode 4 very much. It had its flaws, probably too many to mention in one post, but any show that can be this enjoyable despite its flaws is, in my book, a winner. I do have a question about the fandom, however. Throughout the show, whenever Merlin or Arthur are called upon to perform some courageous act, everyone responds, “But he’s only a boy!” The characters are clearly not youngsters, but the idea is that they are very young adults. So my question is: Does this make those communities I mentioned earlier creepy?? Nah, I don’t think so.

Next week we get Isaac Mendez as Lancelot. Oh, yes.
