User blog comment:Merlinmania/For Merlin fans who don't get to watch season5 premire in fall/@comment-162.40.208.186-20120726173032

Sadly, I'm American, so I won't get to see the premire in the fall on BBC1 either...

Worse still, everywhere I end up I almost never get any decent TV channels (as of right now, I don't get BBC America OR Sy-fy, both of which are the only channels I know of that air Merlin episodes). I'l l have to wait until some poor sap ignorant of copyright laws posts season 5 on youtube. The only time I'll get to watch them LEGALLY will be a year or so from now, whenever they come out on dvd in the US. I'm still waiting on the season four dvd, though I HAVE seen season four, simply because all the episodes were up on youtube.
