On Christmas Eve! It better not end like a tragedy, it's Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI'm more upbeat about the ending after seeing what Colin and the others have said about it. I trust what they say a heck of a lot more than I do the J's; both of them can't seem to open their mouths without talking bull**** and upsetting the fans en masse :(
ReplyDeleteJ's?
ReplyDeleteAlso, do you reckon they will not not send you the finale early?
As a gift, we're killing you favourite characters or leaving them alone and miserable....MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for the negativity, but I don't see a happy ending for this story, I hope I'm wrong. And by happy I mean a satisfying ending.
The producers, Julian Jones and Johnny Capps.
ReplyDeleteI hope so, there's content up for the New Year already, but I only got Ep 11 last night so I think it will be a week or so yet.
Love it when you are talking straight :D
ReplyDeleteHehe, wait until you hear my problems with episode 10...I have many. This was so the wrong episode to see the day after they announced this was the final season. Every other review I've read is quite upbeat about it, I just wish I could be too, but between characters behaving in completely stupid/ret-con ways and the ridiculousness of certain plot points had me rolling my eyes at times :( If you can ignore those points, it *is* a great episode, the cast dazzle as usual and there are a couple of points that really move the story on.
ReplyDeleteWell, I assume we have to take what we get anyway, painful or not! If there is some plot movement, we have to be grateful (sigh).
ReplyDeleteI just watched a cute video summing up so many nice Merlin moments from season 1 to 5 I started feeling a bit emotional. My God the 'boys' and 'girls' have grown up.
