It would have been best to give him the long overdue redemption as was wished by many, many fans. They don't care about that but desperately want to keep the show "surprising", even at the expense of consistency and logic. They have turned two great characters into insane monsters already and I think they won't be the last ones since exaggerated and overinflated happenings seem to be their way to keep the fans guessing and viewing.

With situations like they serve the Morgana- and Uther-haters as well as the fans of Arthur+ Merlin. Everything else seems to be unimportant to them.
