So I haven't watched this week's Merlin yet, but a moron on another forum just left me a nice little message without warning containing a MAJOR spoiler for it, and now I don't know if I even really feel like watching...:(
I think this episode can be summed up as, "CAN I HAZ REDIKULOUS RETCON PLZ?"
Because this has to be the mother of all retcons, and makes NO sense whatsoever in the context of the show past and present. I knew that the Merlin writers are pretty terrible about continuity, but this is BEYOND the Pale, even for them. For instance, oh yeah, Uther would threaten death on his own daughter, that makes PERFECT sense, writers! *rolleyes*
Dear Merlin writers, you are all asinine TALENTLESS HACKS, and I am DONE WITH YOU professionally! >:(

I will continue to fucking ship Uther/Morgana, because I don't care about your fucking Great Retcon of 2010, he has always treated her in a not-very-fatherly fashion. There is crazy UST there too. When did you come up with this idiotic brainchild anyway? End of season 2?
Oh and I was always going to ship Arthur/Morgana even if they were half-siblings (I originally thought they would be, and that there would be ~drama~ when they found out while romantically involved), so yeah, still gonna ship them too! (Though of course shipping siblings is less squicky than father/daughter...).
Maybe I'll just watch season 1 and ignore the rest period. Oh Merlin, you had such potential, you used to be so much fun, so fresh, what happened? :(
THAT IS ALL.
I suppose I'll have to watch this episode at some point but...ugh, just too pissed to deal right now! >:( What a way to cap a meh day!
EDIT: Also I found a great Uther/Morgana fanvid to "November Rain" I'd recommend! ;) "Nothing lasts forever..."
