haitus? wha?

w/e... Merlin 4.06



jakdljlfdgeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!

*happily eats humble pie about being wrong when Colin was all 'this season is all about Merlin being alone and misunderstood and Arthur picking family over friendship' and I was all NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*

IT MAY STILL HAPPEN but WHATEVER!!! This season ROCKS.

Funny. Sexy. Slashy. Funny. Silly. WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING HERE IS THIS FANFICTION?Moments.

FYEAH! SHOW, I LOVE YOU.

the hug was sweet,
Morgana's reaction to first seeing Emrys was fucking hilarious as was Merlin being all 'whatever'
Leon and Merlin and the crossbow? ridiculously funny.
Gwen as also great - loved her reaction in each scene. She does comedy very well, not sure we've had enough opportunity to enjoy that.

omg... i'm rambling...

oh and Merlin/Morgana. yeah - SOMEONE WRITE A b/j SCENE BEFORE SHE CURSES HIM. GOD.

And that last scene? Was it just me or was there a very bradley smile at the word 'polishing'
/am 12


I will say... the ONE THING I WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT?

If Merlin had been ANY OTHER CHARACTER (maybe with the exception of Gaius) he would have been shirtless at least 4 times during this ep. Seriously.

Arthur tending Merlin's wound in the forest? SHIRTLESS OPPORTUNITY
That suspension torture type scene? SHIRTLESS OPPORTUNITY
Gaius discovering the snake? SHIRTLESS OPPORTUNITY
Gaius paralyzing the snake the second time? SHIRTLESS OPPORTUNITY

Instead it's all... we'll just barely move the big ass neckerchief out of the way so that we show as little of Colin's stunning pale skin as possible.

WHAT IS THAT?

but um... it is all forgiven because Arthur walking around the room while naked, talking to Merlin is CANON. so there. "You aren't Merlin" has got to be the best line EVER in this show. ahahhaha.




sorry that was totally incomprehensible. I'm a little excited. Off to re-watch with Mr. M.

I don't think he has a problem with nude scenes. Didn't he bare all for A Prayer for My Daughter?

I honestly think the producers just assume that we only like buff men semi-nude rather than skinny guys like Colin.

Fair enough, but it's one thing to do nude for a theatre audience, knowing that only the people attending will ever see it, and doing it for telly, knowing a) it's on record and can be pulled out at any point of your career and b) is seen by a shitload of people.

To be fair though, I was being somewhat facetious in my comment. I don't see CMorg as the kind of guy who'd refuse to do a scene or have much in the way of self-consciousness when it comes to doing his job and acting a part. OTOH, maybe he disapproves of gratuitous nudity and only bares all when it's an integral character and plot element.
