The Actors want to move on from Merlin so they are not stereotyped in their role. They only signed up for max 5 seasons. Writers and Directors have it in their portfolios with an A+ so why touch it. Its made and making money thats the bottom line so milk it for all its worth

These productions are not made for fans even though they pretend they are. It was a great show but moved too slowly to bring Arthur to reign so there was little time for him to do what he was to do, notwithstanding Uther who made a shatteringly powerful performance that they had to bring him back from the dead for an episode
