MERLIN 209 - LADY OF THE LAKE PREVIEW
Sounds very interesting to say the least, and it looks like Merlin will need his best friend there for him when it matters the most like it did last episode which in my opinion bought A/M back to season one status.

Episode 9 Press Release

When Merlin discovers the beautiful druid girl Freya trapped in a bounty hunter's cage, he knows he must help her escape, as the magical family drama continues. Gaius warns against getting involved but Merlin refuses to listen.

Merlin harbours Freya in the tunnels beneath Camelot. But with the bounty hunter searching for his missing prize and a ferocious magical beast on the loose, she can't stay hidden long. Merlin's intense new friendship is tested to the limit and he is forced to make some heartbreaking decisions as he battles to keep Freya safe.

	Today's episode was so great. I'm still emo over Arthur going backwards regarding his stance on magic.. but the scene between Uther and Arthur was amazing. (Reply to this)

	OMG!! Today's episode was awesome. I just loved the whole Arthur thing. Bradley has won my heart during those scenes. I felt so bad for arthur, when he found out the truth and how he broke down after the whole uther. aw, and merlin teary eyes when arthur says that he realizes how dangerous those who practice magic are and thats all thanks him.

	I admit the last five or so minutes were WTF writers ?! but I loved all the Arthur and Merlin interactions in this one as it was on par with them in season one. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	oh no you guys! :( I am catching up with Merlin, finally. Watching Season one right now.... love it! :D but but, I was just gonna go back and look at old ONTD posts about Merlin, and... they must not be tagged because there are no "Merlin" posts under the tags. whhhhyyy :( :( (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	I want there to be a Merlin tag as well, since the show is becoming more popular here on ONTD and the merin ontd site and so there hopefully will be a Merlin tag soon. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	Also damn I was pretty impressed with Bradley's acting in the end there. Not bad, not bad. (Reply to this)

	ia so hard about emilia fox looking so haggard now. i was watching the coupling episodes she was in last night and she looks so much less haggard. even when she was in cashback, her face was just a lot...smoother and less stressed looking. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	Today's ep was really really good until they hit the reset button on Arthur's views about magic. That was my only complaint. (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	i was really excited to watch this show when i first saw the promos, but i never watched it regularly enough to get into it. maybe i'll watch it online. maybe it's on hulu or something (Reply to this)

	ree7aan 2009-11-15 05:38 am UTC (link)
	also, while i was watching, it just clicked in my head how tragically this will all end. when arthur was standing there with his back to merlin, all framed in light, after his altercation with uther, it just hit home. this boy will never be properly happy. and it will always end badly for him. it made me so sad.

	It's making me think that way too. I don't know how he's going to make this work.:/ (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I tried watching this because the actors who play Merlin, Arthur, and Morgana are all sooo adorable/hot/beautiful. But idk, guys, it seemed kind of like a hokey kids show. Maybe it gets better? (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	fireflower314 2009-11-15 05:40 am UTC (link)
	Well it's written as a 'family show' - it's supposed to appeal to all age groups. Some episodes can be quite dark (for instance, The Beginning of the End, To Kill the King, The Witchfinder, and tonight's episode) but others are definitely aimed more at the kids.

	I was so annoyed by the fact that the arthur/merlin relationship seems to have gone backwards and the fact that merlin seems to be the comedic effect. but, the deeper~ scenes were fabulous. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tryxkittie 2009-11-15 05:45 am UTC (link)
	but I actually like that arthur now hates magic again because it'll make the inevitable reveal that much more dramatic (than if arthur was just cool with it). (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	fireflower314 2009-11-15 05:44 am UTC (link)
	Oh I forgot to mention- they talked about Merlin's dad!! I've been dying to see what the show's take on him will be. There are so many different ways they could write it. (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	saint4u 2009-11-15 05:50 am UTC (link)
	It was kind of a throw away line but it was really a juicy teaser I think to what we can expect in season three which hopefully means a major focus on Merlin and his journey into the deeper realms of magic, what and who he is and where he came from, his mother and father and of coarse the growing in power of Morgana.

	this past episode was so emotional. I wanted to hug arthur by the end (and poor Merlin) WTF UTHER (Reply to this)

	iheartkleenex 2009-11-15 05:58 am UTC (link)
	Regarding Arthur turning his back on magic, it makes perfect sense. I mean he though Morgause lied to him about hid mother (who he loved very much)and tried to get him to kill his father. Obviously he would turn his back on it. For the time being at least. (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	saint4u 2009-11-15 06:00 am UTC (link)
	I get the feeling though that Arthur is more willing to accept magic if it came from merlin still and not anyone else, as Merlin is more subtle and encouraging rather than forcing it on him. Plus, if this episode proved anything at all is that merlin can get through to Arthur when he really needs to and make him believe what he wants him to. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)
