Review

I liked, but didn't love this episode of Merlin. I think it was a very interesting episode and it defiantly did keep my attention the whole time I just think that I didn't like the plot line all that much.

I will say this, I ship Merlin and Gwen all the way do I ship it.

I would give this a 3 out of 5 stars

Season 1 episode 4 The Poisoned Chalice

Synopsis

In Episode four, season 1 of Merlin there is a powerful sorcerer and she disguises herself as a maid. Camelot has just made a friendship with a kingdom they have been fighting with for ages. The sorcerer decides to trick Merlin by telling him the cup Arthur is about to drink out of is poisoned, which it actually is.

Somehow she knew that Merlin would drink out of the poisoned cup, so all this goes to her plan. Merlin get incredibly I'll and Arthur has to go out and collect the leaves of the flower that is making him so I'll in order to cure him, but they aren't easily found.

Review

Unlike the last episode, I loved this episode. I think this episode caught my attention much better and it had a much better plot line all together. Plus Arthur is extremely attractive when he is fighting, I have to say. Again, I ship Merlin and Gwen so very much.

I would give this a 4 out of 5 stars

Season 1 Episode 5 Lancelot

Synopsis

A Griffin has come to Camelot and it likes to feed on the people of Camelot. Merlin is one of the first people to encounter the Griffin and he was saved by a man named Lancelot who is on his way to try to win the title of a knight.

Once Lancelot gets to Camelot him an Merlin soon figure out that he cannot become a knight unless he is of noble blood. They find a way around that, or do they think.

Merlin and Lancelot figure out that the Griffin can only be killed by magic which the King refuse to believe because he is anti magic.

Review

I LOVED this episode. I think this episode was incredible. I also think that Lancelot is very attractive...whoever cast the characters for Merlin has a good eye for attractive men. Arthur, Lancelot, and Merlin are all very attractive. I mean look at them.
