him being so upset was so heartbreaking to watch. even Merlin noticed.
it was also sad when he made that comment to Merlin about how no matter what he does, Merlin always thinks the worst of him. i felt like he really tried, especially since they both had to hide their ~secret~ but Merlin wasn't having any of it.
i'm conflicted on Mordred's reaction tho. i mean, Arthur even said it...he wasn't sentencing her to death for being a magic user...it was because she tried to kill the king. he even gave her a second chance. and he ran back to Morgana...idk. it had nothing to do with magic this time... at all.
I'm sad it's going to over, but I wish it had been a better, more nuanced show. Here we are, near the end and everything I wanted from this show has been rushed into or stalled. Morgana became outright evil in a heartbeat for almost no good reason. No one's finding out about Merlin till the end. Gwen being Morgana's puppet was kind of a waste of time as it was all just a spell broken by true love and all. Merlin keeps making the same mistakes. It's all been pretty frustrating. I just think, with five years, they could have had all this unfold in a more satisfying way.
Well, the cast is pretty and mostly full of good actors and it's been sometimes entertaining. Good enough.
the Gwen story line was the one that bothered me the most this season. i thought maybe it could have worked...i thought that maybe THAT'S the route they were going for her to betray Arthur since Lancelot is now gone....but no it was all just a silly spell. what a waste of time that was.
i hope the cast goes on to great things. it wouldn't be the same not seeing them again, you know?
