User blog comment:Morganaforever/Thoughts on Merlin's finale/@comment-5829707-20121225181922

I think what would have made this episode better would be:

-No ending scene with present-day Merlin, that was just ridiculous

-Aithusa carrying Morgana's body to the Isle of Avalon leaving it open-ended on whether or not she is really gone

-Gwaine survives, Percival takes Gwaine back to Camelot to be treated by Gaius

-Scene between Merlin and Gwen where Gwen learns of Arthur's fate by the look on Merlin's face

-The fate of Camelot and what happens after Gwen takes Arthur's place, does magic return to Camelot?

-Final scene between Merlin and Gaius

-Flash forward to Albion's time of need (still set in the Medieval times) when Arthur's return is needed and some indication that he will return but left open-ended for us to imagine how

-Some conclusion for Kilgharrah

I could say a lot more (like I would have liked the scene in Morgana's vision "help me Emrys" play out) but that would be too much to ask, I guess.
