User blog:Aithusa07/The End... of Merlin

I read a qoute from the Merlin producers somewhere a while back, and Im sure a lot of you have too. I cant qoute it exactly but this is the gist.

"We always had an idea of how the show was going to end. The story of Arthur's death has been told a hundred times in different ways, of course, we've added our own Merlin twist to it."

I know, exactly!

I mean, they're seriously ending the show with Arthur's death?! What kind of ending is that for a (mostly) lighthearted kids show? I know none of us want to see Arthur dead and Merlin all sad. That would be tragic! Well, I guess it would be OK if we got to see the kingdom that Merlin and Arthur build together with magic returning. But only if its for a long time before he dies! I want to see a magical Camelot, since that would definietly make all the fights and drama more epic with BOTH sides using magic and everything. Not to mention the kinghts of the round table, which are currently missing the table. Plus I want lots of interaction with Merlin and his pals and not-pals knowing that hes magic and being Court Sorceror and everything we've ever dreamed of on the show!I mean, are the writers really gonna put the whole kingdom of Albion and Kinghts of the Round Table and magic coming back and everything else that happens in the legend? IN ONE SEASON(SERIES)??????

This is why I really hope there is a Series 6, because there is just so much that could happen, so many new and exciting plotlines we havnt been able to get before with Merlin's magic no longer a secret. Just imagine a Camelot as the Great Dragon said Merlin would make it. Magic freed, magical people freed and all over the place. New magical quests for the knights. New magical quests for Merlin. The possibilities are endless.

So why end it so quickly and on such an unhappy note? Arthur dying? Really? Well, I dont know about you, but that is just not a good way to end a show from my POV. I seriously think if they did that and made that the end of Merlin, I would flip.... out. XP ESPECIALLY if they never even reveal Merlin's magic by the end of the end. Ugh that would suck!

Do you guys think the producers/writers have any chance of changing their minds about this? Any reassurances that you can give me that that will not be the end of Merlin?
