MORE FLAILING ABOUT MERLIN. Who incidentally has huge ears.

So, I watched the first four episodes online, can't yet find a working version of the fifth episode and MAN. I WANT THE LANCELOT PRETTY, NOW. Apparently he was Isaac from Heroes?? I KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE, EPISODE FIVE. I will find you and your little dog too.

I wasn't part of the Xena and Hercules generation, but I kind of feel Merlin is this generation's answer to that. To anachronistic adventure fantasy starring a duo drowning in their own hoyay, that is. EVERYONE, COME JOIN THE MERLIN FLAILPARTY.

BED, this shit is kind of up your alley. I hope you watch it.


Hey, cape aside, that's like Pete and Ed's armor Arthur's wearing?

"Is it my imagination or are you beginning to enjoy yourself?"
"It's not totally horrible all the time." ESPECIALLY WHEN WE DO IT, all night long.

"I wouldn't lie to you." ...already? That was fast, guys.

This is episode two and already we have a "Merlin and Arthur against the world!"

The background music of Merlin and Arthur's breakup scene is hilariously histrionic, wtf.

"The heart cannot truly hate THAT WHICH MAKES IT WHOLE"? Are you kidding me. WOW.

Arthur is SO PRETTY. So pretty. UNGH I WANT.

Arthur/Morgana! I want to like it. But something about it is annoying. Though I am a big fan of how she can make him do anything she wants. ARTHUR. Twisted around so many people's little fingers. Like MERLIN'S. And even his father, in the 'I just want him to be proud of me' sort of way.


I am, like, in love with Arthur's panicked facial expressions whenever Merlin does something stupid and noble. WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. Arthur has to step in and verbally abuse Merlin while saving his ass, barely concealing his panic and fear and anger and LOVE. AT THE BANQUET, after Merlin makes his wild accusations, Arthur's all like let me handle this 'cos I already know how he ticks apparently. WELL THEN. And Arthur's THE FIRST AT HIS SIDE WHEN MERLIN FALLS TO THE FLOOR.

Only four episodes in and Arthur's already like, "I will go to the ends of the earth for you, Merlin! I will risk life and limb. FOR YOU."

CALLING ARTHUR'S NAME IN DELIRIOUS FEVER? WHAT SWEET NECTAR IS THIS?

WTF DINOSAURS?? Well, I guess not, but it sure as hell looked like a spinosaurus.

OH MY GOD, Merlin sending Arthur that glowing ball of light thing. Lost in delirious fevered sleep and MOANING and his first instinct is to SAVE HIS ARTHUR-KING. SAVE YOURSELF ARTHUR-KING, don't mind my dying self, and Arthur's like OH I MIND IT VERY MUCH for who will I make out with then, WHO WILL unDRESS ME.

OMG I JUST DIED. "FASTER FASTER ARTHUR" INDEED. That was PROBABLY A FLASHBACK TO A FEW DAYS AGO.

Harharhar, his father being all like, "Why do you care so much?" YEAH ARTHUR, WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH.

"Yeah, it was nothing," INDEED. You're not fooling anyone, Arthur-king. YOU TWO ARE TOTALLY LOVERRRRRS.

Oh ho ho ho ho ho...

Clearly, someone got sucked in by the stupidly obvious slashiness of Merlin. Everytime the dragon comes onscreen, my mind goes "HERE COMES THE SLASHER DRAGON!"

And yes, Arthur and Merlin do it all night long. And I LOVE ARTHUR AND HIS STUPID PRETTY FACE AND MERLIN AND HIS CHEEKINESS AND HIS WILLINGNESS TO DIE FOR HIS ONE TRUE LOVE.

This SERIES. MADE OF SLASH WIN.

OH LASS YOU KNOW ME SO WELL.

Granted, this makes me want to write crossovers, but whatever.

..........damnit. Now I have a new show. And one that puts the camp in Doctor Who to shame.
