Doing it better than the writers/producers is actually a thought-terminating-cliché because they are doing it for the audience and not as an experiment for university. The viewer has to decide wether they like what they see or not. There are those who liked season four and there are those who disliked it - and those who didn't care at all.

As a viewer, I expect to see a show that provides consistency, continuity, logic, good character descriptions with motives and introductions, emotional scenes, if possible (depending on what the show is about) humour and most of all characters I can "identify" with or I can understand and find interesting. A professional team should be able to do that but season four has proved to me that the once so great show has been changed into an average action series made for most of all younger people. No big and logical stories, no depth, suddenly changed characters, ridiculous and inhumane villains, ignored previous storylines, huge lack of logic and continuity and huge plotholes. It was most of all quantity over quality, very rushed and hasted to impress younger viewers who don't really care about depth and multifaced characters.

Almost everything about season four was wrong in regard to the previous seasons and it felt like being a standalone season, a whole new show that has begun without concluding the other. If I started to list what went wrong and made no sense or was - in my opinion - poorly done, nobody would read this post because of its lentgh. Some things are a matter of taste and some things are a plain fact and were simply done wrong.

What they did wrong with Agravaine was that he wasn't introduced and that his motives/motivations weren't explained. His sudden death also made him completely superflouse. He was there and then he was gone. That was it. His character could have added so much to the show since he could have been described as a troubled man who is divided in his loyalties and who could have shown his qualities and good sides as well. Instead they made him being a mere villain, serving Morgana without a valid reason and hating his own nephew, the only son of his siter. No explanation, no introduction, only a one-dimensional villain. It was a total waste.
