The ending does not make sense. Merlin could have called the Dragon as soon as Arthur was wounded, in order to take him to avalon.Instead he spent a whole day on horseback with Arthur, knowing very well that the king's hours are numbered.

The viewers were also cheated of the golden era which was promised to them, an era where magic would be permitted and where Arthur and Merlin would rule side by side, with Merlin having finally gained his rightful place by the side of Arthur. As it is now, Merlin would never be given his true place with Arthur. The whole story was fabulous, but this anti climax ruined the glamour of the entire tv series. If this show had continued, the producers as well as the cast would have benefitted immensely, not only by the growth of their popularity, but also careerwise and financially. It was a real bad decision to give this such an abrupt, illogical, cliched ending. If the producers happen to see these, I would beg you guys to reconsider. The world needs shows like this, where people are reminded of things like loyalty, duty, love, friendship which are qualities which are fast vanishing in the modern society.
