I don' think her change was all of the sudden. In the very first episode, we saw she had a big problem with Uther's treatment of people who had magic. At this point, the audience doesn't yet know she has magic, and no doubt she sensed it for years. She almost killed Uther at one point, but stopped it and gave him another chance. When it was clear he wouldn't change, and at this point her own magic as clear, it didn't take much convincing from Morgause. Especially after she learned Uther was her father and he refused to tell her. Morgana was always going to be a tragic villain, that comes from the mythology. Yes, she became this villain with a "plot-of-the-week" which didn't make her come off as a competent baddy. She had one goal - kill Arthur - and kept throwing things at the wall until something worked. McGrath did a great job in the role, but she should had taken over another kingdom instead of living in a hovel. Then again, maybe that was on purpose, to show how her hatred and clouded her thinking so much.
