Merlin Review: Episodes 1 - 3

[crabby_lioness]

Now that the final reviews are in and the Christmas flu is winding down, I finally have time to watch Merlin.  I've seen the first three episodes so far, and I haven't been disappointed.

Interesting take on the episodes (and the characters) so far. I certainly would like to know what you think about the rest of the series.

Are you including Merlin's father being an incubus in #5?

[crabby_lioness]

An incubus is a type of Demon, yes. Specifically, a Demon that preys upon nuns and young girls, sending them wet dreams and occassionally getting them pregnant. You can see how handy they would be to have on hand to blame for the occassional "accident".

[oconel]

Hehehe, I know!

I asked because I thought the incubus did not have a Christian origin, therefore it still may be a possibility.

[crabby_lioness]

Possible. But if they go with the "Mom was a nun" story, they're missing out on an awesome birth scene.

[oconel]

Well, personally I wouldn't be surprised if they mixed several origins (though I like the dragon theory...)

Oh Lord, now you've given me a plot bunny.

Good!!!
