Merlin 3x01

WAIT. HOLD UP. DID SHIT ACTUALLY JUST GET REAL? OMFG. If this is the START of the season, then there might be an ARC and DEVELOPMENT and, okay, now I'm a lot more excited.

MORGANA AND MORGAUSE, HOW ARE YOU SO FABULOUS? *waves Team Evil flag* Oh man, they're so awesome I can't even.

And here's the problem. I was yelling at the screen when Morgause was uncharacteristically stupid and left Merlin to die rather than finishing the job. I'm sorry, I am, I used to love Merlin so much, but his levels of skeevy collaboration are getting too much for me, I can't deal any more. And the show persists in making Arthur look like an idiot, and it's all very frustrating.

On the upside, Gwen and Morgana had some scenes together and even interacted! The downside being that it BROKE. MY. HEART. D: D: D: Giiiirls just get back together already, gah. (And dear rlist, please to be writing me lots of fix-it fic, okay? Okay.)

I'm happy to tune in every week for the Morgana and Morgause Take Over The World show, because hell yes, but dammit, I miss my other shows.

(AND GWEN HAD BETTER GET SOME KICKASS PLOTS LATER IN THE SERIES, OR THERE'LL BE TROUBLE.)

I have a theory over at my journal re Morgause leaving Merlin to die instead of just killing him....I think it's another one of her deliberate and elaborate gambits, not uncharacteristically stupid but clever and in character. We'll see...
