planet_tatersThe Eye of the Phoenix (ep 8)
i mostly enjoyed this ep, but there were tons of things that annoyed me (big surprise). i wrote a big huge e-mail to my dad about it, but don't really care to bother at this point.
arthur sinking like artax in the neverending story cracked me up. the courage-magic-strength thing being set up as all important and absolutely NOTHING coming of it was lame as fuck.
and lots of other annoying things, blah blah blah.
Love in the Time of Dragons (ep 9)
i was pretty bored with this ep. (uther is angry about magic, oh no!) it didn't take the season anywhere. it did nothing for the story or the plot or the characters. it insulted merlin's magic ability and degraded the arthur/merlin relationship (altho that's pretty much standard for this season).
it was nice not to have to deal with morgana or gwen.
so overall, i'm pretty fed up with season 3 of merlin. the arthur/merlin relationship has been reduced to complete idiocy. it had been SO nice and sweet. now it's just lame. insult, banter, toss goblet, injure with weapons, ha ha. yeah, no thanks. and i had REALLY high expectations after the first two episodes. that the characters and the relationships were going to mature and evolve and... just be so much better than this. it's extremely annoying and frustrating and greatly disappointing.
oh well, that'll teach me to get sucked into something so quickly. fucking stupid show.
