You've summed up my feelings about Merlin so well here. We've seen hardly any magic this season, instead its mostly Merlin's (morbid) fascination with Mordred. I also have issues with Arthur suddenly being openly affectionate with Mordred with no explanation/character development. The whole series seems to be missing chunks.
I'm more frustrated than disappointed, to be honest. The writers have had so many opportunities to write good eps and they just seem to think 'fuck it' instead.
I always feel mean for harshing people's squee though? So I try to keep it at a minimum. It's been so hard these past two eps though.
