Merlin Series 4 Finale Review

Beware....major spoilers alert!!! Stop reading if you don't wish to know.










Last Sunday was the series finale on BBC 1. I glued myself in front of my laptop waiting for Merlinjunkie to upload the much anticipated episode. Usually, each episode would be uploaded around 6-7 am (Malaysian time). But i guess bcoz of the Christmas thingy, he uploaded the episode the next day. I was on hot seat coz I was leaving for S'pore that morning. I needed to know the ending. The lady luck was smiling on me that day, i managed to see the whole episode through LegendaryBadGirl channel.






I'll start with the recap...








1. Arthur and Guinevere were reunited after the Lancelot/Guinevere affair thing. They shared a short but sweet hug. Turned out, she was living in Ealdor with Merlin's mom after her banishment.







2. However, Arthur totally ignored her the next couple of days. He said the hug was a moment of weakness on his part. He will never forget what Guinevere did.








3. Merlin summoned the Great Dragon to help.










4. Agravaine knew Merlin was a sorceror after witnessing his enchantment. Merlin killed him after that. Go Merlin!!!



5. Arthur pulled out Excalibur from the rock.... with Merlin's help, of course.




6. Tristan and Isodle joined Arthur's quest to save Camelot.




7. Arthur met Morgana 4 the first time after her betrayal.




8. Morgana's magic did not work as Dragoon The Great/Old Merlin put a spell on her first.




9. Isodle died while trying to save Arthur. She died in the arms of Tristan. Arthur felt bad and thought about him n Guinevere.




10. He proposed for the second time... and she said YES!!!




11. Arthur and Gwen got married and she was crowned Guinevere, Queen of Camelot... GO ARWEN!!!!
12. Before i forget, Morgana was still alive and being saved by the baby dragon... Ughhhh.




So, how do i find the finale? I think it was ok. Arthur should already be a lill suspicious of Merlin by now. What i dont like is we are still back at square one where Morgana is still evil and very much alive. It's like the beginning of Series 3 and 4. Plus, the wedding and coronation were too short. Come on, i waited 9 months for this and they gave us a 2 minutes scene.. Waaaaaa







So, another 9 months to wait for the next Series... Hmmmm Sighhh
