I know that darkness has definitely taken form in his fifth series. There isn't anything light except for a few moments when Arthur and Gwen being romantic and some humor. So, I have to disagree. It would be  brutal -- for the star character to get his throat slit. Remember there are actual children watching this show.

Although I don't approve entirely on the direction the writers gone on some of the episodes. I still like that I can still watch the show without covering my eyes. Besides if she killed Merlin there would not be a show.

I am just saying to slit Merlin's throat would have been a rated R kind of move. Also there is thing called bad karma -- action for action. Morgana can't win no matter how slick her plans may be. It's the law of the universe.
