User blog comment:Alethia II/Why I have not particularly enjoyed what I have seen so far in series 5/@comment-4640114-20121113060614

Wow, another negative blogpost about season 5....there were a bunch of these during season 4 too....I'm not saying you can't have your own opinion or complain about a certain aspect in an episode that you didn't really like but all of this negativity....

Here's the thing:  If certain things in the show never returned it would just be weird and unrealistic. They brought back Mordred, which actually made the season more fresh and unique, and we aren't sure at all what he's going to end up doing in the end. If they hadn't brought him back it would have just been weird, because he would have sworn revenge on Merlin as a creepy little kid and never have come back.

Or the Madrake root: Why wouldn't Morgana use such a powerful tool again?

Now, the one thing that is driving me absolutely insane is that no one has found out about Merlin's magic yet....it's just getting ridiculous...Gwaine should know...
