Merlin!! These first three episodes have been incredible. Laughter and oh the tears!
Before I gush about our dear boys, I'll agree with you about the girls. Morgana's desire for revenge against Uther is understandable but they never addressed WHY she would also turn on Arthur & Gwen who she adored. I guess we're just left to assume that the thought of power and her use of magic for evil turned her to "the dark side" completely. As for Gwen, I think if she only had scenes helping Gaius or standing up to protect the people of Camelot it would be better. But it's her interactions with Arthur and Lancelot that leave me going, "you're better than this"!
Now to the boys. I'll start with how I ADORE all the knights and how they each had their moment to shine in the first two episodes. I hope that will continue and that Gwaine will be more than comic relief.
Merlin! He's so determined to save Arthur and Camelot no matter what it costs him. His heart is broken because he couldn't save Arthur the pain of losing his dad and now Arthur hates magic. And if Arthur truly begins a campaign against magic it will devastate him. Colin is amazing!
Arthur! He just wants to do the right thing for his people, and now he's KING!! I love how he can be truly open with Merlin and even admit his fears. And he called Merlin brave and a loyal friend! And oh that Bradley James has made me cry these past weeks!
