User blog comment:It's Good to be the Queen/Has the Merlin series "jumped the shark"?/@comment-4623180-20121119030430

I'm mainly mad about the things they deceived us with in interviews. I know interviews are only interviews and they can't blood promise us anything, but we were set up for the wrong thing, and as you said the repetitive writing is not offering us anything fresh and new.


 * 4 episodes of a traitor in the walls storyline. Seriously.


 * Aithusa appearing in only one episode so far, and we're up to the eighth episode.


 * Mordred only having two episodes with him in it as a main character. So much for "the camera being on him a lot of the time."


 * The Saxons disappearing. Morgana miraculously bringing up armies with no explanation how she does it. She also seems to have lots of money and good food.


 * Merlin being treated like nothing. Arthur ignoring him every time then learning Merlin was right 100% of the time but still not taking the lesson.

And now that we know the synopsis for episode 10, which will probably result in Morgana still not knowing who Emrys is, they are going to have to cram the dragons in episode 11, 12 and 13, explanation of Morgana's captivity, magic reveals (if not, I am seriously going to throw something at the TV) and all this other stuff...
