Day 11 - A show that disappointed you




Every time I see a music vid about Merlin I think to myself 'surely, this must be the kind of show you'd love - it has chick with swords and chicks with magic and it's a retelling of the Aurthurian legands and Gwen is a black chick and Giles is having inappropriate subtext with his sword-wielding Seer ward' and then I watch the pilot and realize that a.) the writers cannot write and b.) Merlin is an idiot of such epic proportions I can't even speak of it. And I hear tell that the agency of the female character remain deeply problematic. Fail. Thank god Legend of the Seeker was there to sooth my disappointment.

Merlin is one of my guilty TV pleasures of the "cheesy as mature gruyère" flavour, but its female characters are indeed so much wasted potential. *sigh*

(Also, I should finally start / go on watching LotS.)

Yeah, I know a lot of people who enjoy it in that guilty pleasure way.
