User blog comment:Fimber/Nine questions about "The Wicked Day"/@comment-4814726-20120626025727/@comment-84.61.222.248-20120627125837

I too didn't quite understand Gwen saying that magic killed her father because it was indeed Uther. I wrote it before, I think it's a shame that we just don't know what Gwen thinks about magic, wether she is afraid of it or more open towards people who use magic. It's all just speculation on our side and that is annoying. It's frustrating that especially one of the most important characters doesn't have just anything to do with magic whatsoever although the show actually is supposed to be about Merlin and his secret. Not a wise decision to have Gwen only dealing with a weird love-drama and becoming queen instead of showing how she deals with the whole magic-situation.

I also found it very annoying that Arthur is now kind of replacing Uther in regard to "hating" magic because he actually can't replace Uther and the hatred for magic worked so very well with Uther. Why now Arthur? Not to mention that Arthur doesn't really hate it, he accepted the druids, for goodness sake. To me, The Wicked Day and entire season four was totally superflouse and unnessecary. It has changed the entire show and I find it exceptionally boring. I for one am not the slightest bit interested in love drama and the Round Table and stuff,. but maybe that's just me. All in all, The Wicked Day was illogical and only a tool to make now Arthur hating magic although he actually doesn't hate it. It's so incomprehensible.
