I started watching this show when it first aired on tv but I kinda stopped watching it and kinda picked it back up on Netflix about two years ago, only to kinda get side tracked with other shows but I'm watching it again and I gotta say, I absolutely adore Gwen, regardless of her skin color. I don't know why people are getting their panties in a bunch over the actress's skin color. I swear, Covid has brought out the worst in people, and I thought Trump's election brought out the worst kind of people out of the wood works, no, Covid19 has

I have no problem with a black or other poc woman playing Gwenivere or people who were "historically" white. I mean yeah it's a bit messed up for some white people to portray characters of color and get flack for it since most of the time most shows aren't supposed to be historically accurate unless otherwise noted, especially in a fantasy show like Merlin. Putting the whole skin color aside, anyone who has a problem with a black girl playing Gwenivere are probably the same people who get anal over small and minute details and yet aren't ever really happy no matter if any show or movie or play fixes the complaints from the fans.

The girl who plays Gwenivere is really pretty and a great actress and this is coming from a white woman who tries to see both sides of everything.
