I LOVE MERLIN!!!! Something about legendary characters mesmerizes me and I'm happy to see it in a series! I am so glad that something "new" has come to TV that is not a reality show! NBC, please bring Merlin back for another season!!

I LOVE MERLIN!! Something about legendary characters mesmerizes me and it's good to see one of the networks show a "new" show that's not a reality show! Please bring Merlin back for another season!

As an avid fan of the Merlin "legend" I am finding this particular twisting and telling of the tale very entertaining. I hope NBC brings it back to us next year.

I watched the series when it was airing on the Beeb and watched it all over again on NBC. So i guess i liked it enough to want a second series airing on NBC, hopefully a bit sooner after it airs on the BBC since i liked the HD upgrade (though i assume the BBC will move it on BBCHD next series).

I do like the show and I'd love to see NBC bring us more of it! At its best, it's fun and clever and the cast are capable of some really good performances. I had some initial reservations about messing with the legends, but I suppose if anyone has the right to rewrite Arthurian legend, it's the Brits.

I thought the first of last night's two episodes didn't really get good until the last ten minutes, but the finale was a good one. We've seen a lot of sides to Nimueh in the four episodes she's been in, haven't we?

I'd babble more, but I'll let you read it here if you're interested: http://raked.wordpress.com/2009/08/24/merlin-vs-nimueh/ :)

i love the show, which i didn't expect. the finale was great, and i don't mind the supposed inaccuracies. hope they show the second season.. if not, i may have to find it on the net. LOL

The story of Arthur is a myth passed through generations and interpreted differently by different cultures. There are no "facts" as you put it. It's not history. Events and characters vary within different texts with no single agreed upon canon.

Although the show is entertaining I just find it very inaccurate, by which the majority of the facts are false. For those that know the true story of King Arthrur it is sort of disappointing. For example Merlin is suppose to be centurys old and not the same age as Arthur and that is just one example. There are so many more facts I can list but it will be too long. If the show does come back I do hope that things are changed to make it more accurate. I will watch it because I do want to see if there is more truth to it instead of these made up facts.

I think NBC's co-production of Merlin included the second series- so if the net doesn't run it next summer, they probably send it over to Syfy or (kinda unlikely, since they just grabbed Who) sell the US airing to Beeb America.

I love this wonderful show and hope we get to see more of it. The finale was great, as were all episodes. This is high quality television - much better than much of what is produced in the USA these days. I can easily understand why it's been renewed in the UK. Demonstrates good sense on their part.
