I'm still frustrated by how, pretty much through most of Season 2, how helpless Morgana is made and how she seemed to be largely sidelined in order to make more room for either Arwen, the bromance of Merlin and Arthur- or the toilet humour of the almost pointless two-parter, 'Beauty and the Beast' or the equally annoying 'Sweet Dreams'.

Morgana being "sidelined" for much of mid-series 2 was kind of a necessary evil when you consider her overall character arc. I mean, you can't have episodes full of her giggling with Gwen, chatting with Merlin, hanging out with Arthur, and deeply involving herself in the kingdom's affairs same as always and then suddenly have her decide to betray those same friends and kingdom at the end of the season citing loneliness/isolation as one of her key reasons when she never appeared to be alone or isolated. It just wouldn't make sense.
