It's not respectful or constructive criticism to call an actress or an actor names, which happened in the past, to rant about their looks and to tell the world that he or she was miscast.

Respect doesn't include to belittle someone and it most certainly doesn't include to fight in public about who looks better or more beautiful.

I don't know why you think that everyone is labeled as a hater but I say that it's certainly rude and immature to insult an actor or an actress, no matter how "polite" a comment seems to be. There were already discussions about this subject and we've come to agree here that insults and offence will be deleted. And ranting about the looks of a real person, an actor or an actress, is an offence.

As for Gwen being noble and not a servant in the legends we know, this is a re-telling. The showrunners have changed a lot of things about the well-known legends in this one, which is why Merlin and Arthur are the same age, Gwaine is not Arthur's half-brother, Uther lived long enough to raise Arthur and hated magic whereas he was a follower of the Old Religion in some other legends, Morgana and Arthur hadn't an affair and Mordred wasn't their child. And many things more.

I disagree with a lot of things of the show but as a re-telling, the overall changes were done very well. It's a new story of the legend, a new version.
