User blog comment:Morganaforever/Best series of Merlin/@comment-4769526-20120325164944

My Favourites are:

Series 1, they couldn't have introduced the characters better! It had the most epic duel so far and some cool magic creatures. I liked The poisened chalice as it showed what lenghts Arthur to for Merlin. But the best has to be Le morte d'Arthur, Arthurs near-death and the battle between Merlin and Nimueh were amazing!

Series 4 would have to be second, I liked seeing the situations they were put in and I was glad that Arthur was finally crowned King of Camelot. The final episode was good, esecially when Agravaine confronted Merlin. But Aithusa is my favourite episode, it's great that there's another dragon. The only negative things are that magic duels have become simply throwing people around and there was yet another enemy inside the walls of Camelot.

Series 2 was fairly good. It had some funny moments, but most of the time it was a bit...well...dull. There were no magic duels, no major events from the legend and apart from a troll there were no new magical creatures. But it did have some good moments, like when Morgana discovered she had magic and Kilgarrah attacked Camelot. The last Dragonlord is by far the best of that series, it's full of drama and had a really good twist.

Series 3, in my opinion, was the worst. I hated Morgana's constant smirking and the fact she was like a sidekick to Morgause. The filler episode Goblin's gold was okay, it was fairly humourous but was also a bit pointless. None of the episodes really stood out as favourites to me, but I liked meeting more knights of the round table.

Overall-

Series1=Brilliant! Series4=very good   Series2=fairly good/okay    Series3=bad.
