User blog comment:It's Good to be the Queen/Has the Merlin series "jumped the shark"?/@comment-5659316-20121119024611/@comment-3012002-20121119031009

I agree with you but I actually liked The Death Song of Uther Pendragon. The only episode I haven't liked so far is The Disir as I thought it was totally pointless. I hate the fact that everyone is bitching about every single episode of Season 5. The show keeps getting better and better and we're seeing sides to the characters that we've never seen which is really great to see. I don't mean to to be harsh, but people need to realise that the show isn't want it use to be. Every season is darker and is won't be getting any lighter any time soon.

I totally understand there are episodes that people can love or loathe. I even have episodes that I couldn't stand but you hear me going overboard about how much I hate the episodes. I know there are plenty of people who want the writers to quit but I can tell you as a writer myself, one lot of people can't get a team of a dozen people who have written tons of material fired even if they tried. If people don't like the show let alone the show anymore, I propose you go out and try to remake the show and I can tell you now that the result and the reception won't be pretty. The people that make Merlin are industry pros and they make their life savings being involved in productions as big as Merlin.

I totally agree with you Adelina Le Morte March. People need to get over themselves and realise that the show is already made and there is nothing they can do to change that.
