It's sad to see that after good discussions we had on other threads you fall back again into offending others. Whenever there is a disagreement about homosexuality on the show you get personal. It's really a shame. And I thought our latest conversations were quite interesting.

No, I didn't bring it up. As a matter of fact, you did, before you edited your comment which I didn't see when I responded to you. So I asked you if you have another idea about the message of the show that doesn't include homosexuality. I was just curious what other conclusion you have seen, that's all.

I'd like to politely ask you again to refrain from calling people homophobic when they disagree that the love between two fictional characters has always been the main storyline on a TV show. Some time ago when a friend of mine discussed the political issues between Israel and Palestine, she criticised both sides. It didn't take long until she was called an anti-semit. The weirdest thing about it was the fact that she was jewish herself. I have already told you that one of my closest friend was gay. He died several years ago and I still haven't gotten over his death. I almost grew up with him since we first met when I was fourteen (now I'm 38). So calling me homophobic is totally out of line and insulting.

This thread deals with the disappointment of fans about the finale of which they think it didn't conclude the overall story. If people find it disturbing that the entire show suddenly was supposed to be only about the love between only two characters (whether straight/brotherly, gay or whatever), it's nothing to be personally offended about but totally understandable. If those who were only interested in the relationship between Arthur and Merlin and nothing else, find the finale great, it's totally fine and understandable too.

Edit: In case you feel uncomfortable about this subject because you maybe didn't want to refer to it whatsoever, I offer you to delete my posting about it. If you wish to have it deleted in case you prefer to not discuss it, just let me know.
